I Just Can Score

After the conversation between Mubarak and Magnus, he contacted the real owner and investor of Manchester City through a video call-

Mansoor.

Mansour's full name is Sheikh Mansour bin Zayed Alhayan. He is the son of former UAE President Khalifa and one of the richest and most powerful people in the world. .

In the 2009 Forbes list of richest people under 40, 39-year-old Mansour ranked third in the world with a fortune of 17 billion pounds, while Mansour's family wealth was 1 trillion U.S. dollars (555 billion pounds). Huge properties are allowed to purchase assets abroad.

Although Mansour's personal wealth cannot be said to be the world's largest, the wealth he can control and use can be said to be the world's largest.

Mansour is the real owner and real investor of Manchester City Club.

Mubarak is the chairman of Manchester City Club, but he is just a person supported by Mansour and responsible for managing Manchester City Club. When the club has major financial movements, Mubarak has direct decisions, but he still has to make decisions to Mansour. report.

After Mubarak gave a brief narration, Mansour immediately asked with interest, You mean, are you planning to activate the buyout clause and bring Zhen Shaolong to Manchester City? Starting next August, he will be able to represent Manchester City in the competition?

Yes, but it would use a lot of money.

Mansour waved his hand and said nonchalantly, If we can help Manchester City win the Premier League championship, it will be worth spending more euros. I just want to see the results. This year's Manchester City cannot meet the requirements. Al, according to If you do what you want, I believe you can make Manchester City the best club in the world, and by then, it will also become the mecca of football in the Arab world.

I will.

After Mubarak finished speaking, he found that Mansour had turned off the video call. He, who always said 'I am not short of money' in front of others, couldn't help but smile bitterly, Having a boss who doesn't care about money is really stressful.

Mansour may not care about money or how much he invests in Manchester City, but he must care and must achieve results.

Manchester City's performance this year is still not up to standard. At least so far, they have no hope of competing for the league championship. There will be greater pressure next year. Buying out Zhen Shaolong's contract will definitely greatly strengthen Manchester City's strength. By then, the team will There will be greater hope of winning the championship.

That's what matters.

Manchester City wants to buy out Zhen Shaolong's contract, but in fact it is still a matter of funds.

According to the cooperation agreement signed by both parties, if Manchester City wants to buy out the contract in advance, it needs to pay the remaining two-thirds of the transfer funds. The stipulated amount is about 170 million euros, which is an astonishingly huge amount of money.

Mansour didn't care about money, Mubarak couldn't care less.

One hundred and seventy million euros is too huge. In addition, there will definitely be other investments. The transfer investment in the summer will easily exceed 200 million euros, and may reach 300 million euros, and the funds are also simple. Numbers, they must have detailed discussions with Real Madrid on how to pay.

Just like when Zhen Shaolong joined Real Madrid, there was a player exchange in the transfer negotiations. Player exchange with Real Madrid is also a good choice.

The current Manchester City lineup is already eligible for player exchange with Real Madrid. A successful exchange will be beneficial to both parties.

On the one hand, it is to eliminate unnecessary players from their respective teams.

On the one hand, there are new signings to supplement the lineup.

Players who are eliminated from their respective teams do not mean that they are 'bad' or 'poor in strength'. For example, players who can enter top clubs will not be inferior in their own strength. They may be eliminated because they do not adapt to the league style. Maybe it's because of internal problems in the locker room, maybe it's because I want to leave, etc.

In the process of operating the transfer, Zhen Shaolong's opinions must also be coordinated. His joining is very important to Manchester City and his requirements must be considered.

From now until May, the focus of the transfer work will be on Zhen Shaolong.

The transfer cannot be delayed until the summer. It is also important to end it early to have more time. This part of the work must be completed.

Mubarak took note of his work very carefully.

When Manchester City was preparing to start buyout negotiations with Real Madrid, Zhen Shaolong, the protagonist of the negotiations, was not idle either. He entertained a big shot at his home -

Ferran Soriano.

Zhen Shaolong didn't know what Soriano did.

If Alice hadn't stopped him, he wouldn't have even wanted to kick this guy out, because what he said was a bit like a pyramid scheme.

Zhen, you have more than 500 million or even more fans around the world, but you only get an annual salary of more than 20 million euros. When you include other income, it certainly does not exceed 100 million euros. Do you think this is normal? ?

We assume that each fan is willing to spend one euro for you, and your annual income should exceed 500 million euros!

Listen!

Is this human language!

Zhen Shaolong almost wanted to shout angrily, If you can help me earn 500 million euros, I am willing to give you one-tenth of it.

or.

Just kick the other person out the door.

Zhen Shaolong felt that what the other party said was a bit too big and he couldn't bear it. Of course he liked making money very much, but 500 million euros a year was too unreliable.

Even if they cover all fields, it is difficult for the most profitable celebrities in the world to earn more than 200 million euros a year.

Five hundred million euros?

This number is really astonishing.

Soriano's calculation is correct, but most fans are unwilling to spend money on their favorite stars. Not to mention fans in other regions, most domestic fans are willing to spend money on their favorite fans, and they only watch games and buy football. Tickets and income cannot directly go into the pockets of the stars. They can at most watch the games and seek support from various forums. Such support can increase the popularity of the stars and is not closely related to direct income.

After Soriano made a thrilling lobbying speech, Zhen Shaolong took Alice and asked carefully, only to find out what Soriano did.

Soriano is really a big shot.

In 2008 and the previous five years, Soriano had been the manager of the Barcelona club and was responsible for Barcelona's financial affairs. The financial record created by Barcelona was largely due to Soriano's work and his business philosophy have influenced Barcelona. Until now, Barcelona's operations have the shadow of Soriano's philosophy.

Soriano also published a book on club management called Goals Are Not Accidental, in which he wrote, Barcelona's success is the result of excellent and creative business management.

In 2008, the Barcelona club fell into a vicious political struggle, and Soriano had no choice but to resign from Barcelona.

Perhaps another reason is that Soriano's concept cannot be implemented in Barcelona. He has always wanted to set up franchise clubs (similar to satellite clubs) in other countries so that the Barcelona brand can truly spread to Barcelona. Globalization is developing, but within the Barcelona club, there is opposition to Soriano's idea. They believe that Barcelona is rooted in Catalonia, and the club's 143,000 voting members are fundamental. Soriano Nuo's idea is indeed good, but the pace of investing in other league operations is too far.

After Soriano left Barcelona Club, he basically disappeared from the public eye. Most people didn't care where he went, and they didn't expect that he would come looking for Zhen Shaolong when he appeared again.

After listening to Alice's story, Zhen Shaolong couldn't help but re-examine Soriano. His ideas may be very out-of-the-box, but he can be responsible for managing Barcelona's finances and is very successful at it. He must have outstanding abilities.

so……

“Perhaps it is possible to earn 500 million euros a year?”

Zhen Shaolong's eyes lit up.

When he looked at Soriano again, Zhen Shaolong's attitude changed. He was eager to know what Soriano was thinking, You came to me, you must have figured out a way? What should I do? Let every fan be willing to pay? Even one euro per person is fine.

One euro per person.

500 million fans means 500 million euros.

Even the after-tax income will definitely easily exceed 300 million euros!

Zhen Shaolong was so moved. He looked at Soriano as if he were looking at a money printing machine. Even if the money printed was banknotes with his own face, as long as they could be circulated and used normally, it would not be a problem at all. .

Soriano smiled gently, and his friendly expression made people feel good. In fact, his heart was filled with a wry smile.

One euro per person?

It's not that easy!

Soriano just drew a big picture. He is not here to be Zhen Shaolong's agent, but hopes to cooperate with him.

Soriano has always had a dream of running a football empire. Barcelona was once the origin of his dream, but it turns out that the membership-based Barcelona club does not give him enough room to display some of his ideas. It simply cannot be implemented.

He needs absolute support.

Monetary support!

Rights support!

If you want to build a world-wide football business empire, you also need the underlying foundation - a very good club.

Zhen Shaolong's huge influence allowed Soriano to improve his ideas. He found that when a player has a high enough influence, he can play a similar role to the club. The only thing is that the player's influence is too single. It would be best to complement the club and serve as a pillar to support the development of the business empire.

So, here he comes.

Soriano took a deep breath and began to explain his personal philosophy. He talked about the various models for realizing the influence of stars and talked about business development issues.

These extremely high-tech things made Zhen Shaolong feel sleepy.

Alice was very energetic. She seemed to be a diligent student, listening carefully to every word and word of Soriano.

five minutes later.

Zhen Shaolong interrupted Soriano and asked a question, Just tell me, can you help me earn 500 million euros a year? There is no need to explain how to do it.

Soriano took a deep breath and had the urge to turn around and leave.

He could only continue to expound the concept.

Zhen Shaolong felt drowsy after hearing this. No, he fell asleep directly. When he woke up again, he found that Soriano was still talking and Alice was taking notes carefully.

All right!

Let’s talk!

Zhen Shaolong felt that he could just wait for the result, and there was no need to get involved in such a complicated matter. He went to the study and checked Twitter for a while before finally waiting for Soriano to leave.

What on earth is he here to do? Zhen Shaolong asked with some confusion. He generally understood. The other party came to explain his ideas and hoped to cooperate in the future, but the method of cooperation sounded unclear.

Alice smiled and said, Mr. Soriano hopes to cooperate with you and cooperate in the future, but his ultimate goal is to talk to Manchester City Club.

Manchester City?

Yes, his purpose is to get the support of Manchester City Club, or in other words, the support of Manchester City's investors, the Abu Dhabi Consortium. He hopes to use your influence and rely on the financial support of the Abu Dhabi Consortium to operate a coverage The global football business company.”

Zhen Shaolong understood a little bit, and he subconsciously asked, If he hopes to get the support of Manchester City Club, why did he come...

Looking for you?

Alice pursed her lips and rolled her eyes, The whole world knows that you will become a Manchester City player.

Alice's statement is not an exaggeration.

Irving's tweet saying Welcome to Manchester had a huge chain effect. The British media reported on it for a while, and some reporters went to Manchester City Club to investigate.

The media is pervasive.

If something happens, there will be clues. A reporter interviewed the staff of Manchester City Club and got the first-hand secret information: Manager Magnus put down the work at hand, but was not directly fired or resigned. , on the contrary, he was even more reused by Mubarak, as evidenced by his frequent visits to and from the chairman's office.

What does Magnus do?

soon.

Manchester Sports News unearthed shocking news. An unnamed Manchester City employee made it clear that Manchester City is preparing to negotiate with Real Madrid about Zhen Shaolong's contract buyout, and Magnus is in charge of this matter.

This news was like igniting a powder keg, causing the European sports media to completely boil.

The media frenzy quickly swept across Europe and even the world, and Spain certainly couldn't escape it. A large number of Spanish media also reprinted and reported it, and at the same time they did not forget to dig out the latest news.

certainly.

They couldn't find any information.

AS and Marca successively sent reporters to the Real Madrid club for interviews, but Real Madrid staff stated that they had not received any news from Manchester City.

Florentino stood up and said, That's a rumor!

Manchester City has the right to buy out the contract, but we have not received any clear information and have not made any contact.

This sentence actually stabilized the morale of the army.

What the outside world didn't know was that Florentino had just finished his speech and received a call from Manchester City when he returned to the office. Manchester City chairman Mubarak made it clear, It's time to start negotiations related to Zhen Shaolong.

Mr. Florentino, Manchester City is willing to bear all remaining costs of Zhen Shaolong's transfer from Newcastle United. The specific payment method can be discussed in detail.

Mr Magnus will be responsible for Manchester City's affairs...
