Football nukes: a pound buys a club

The players celebrated in the away game for a while, and then left under the greeting of Zhang Chong.After all, it is someone else's home court, so it's not good to celebrate, especially when Northampton is very likely to be relegated...

Back at the hotel, a systematic voice sounded in Zhang Chong's mind again: "Win the League Two Championship, improve the coach's overall rating by 5 points, and reward a loyalty card."

Loyalty card can save a player who has lost his mind, and can also make a player who has no intention of joining change his mind.

Zhang Chong slapped his thigh, isn't this just a pillow when he wants to sleep?

Now that the season is basically over, Zhang Chong has to start preparing for his next season.

He wants to make a difference in the transfer market, but although the team has been promoted to League One, the level is still not enough.

Many talented players don't even look at them.

But with this card, he can buy a player he has wanted for a long time!

There are still five rounds in the league, and the rest of the games are completely useless for Bury. Zhang Chong mainly plays in rotation and does not insist on results.

However, this group of lads are very strong, and they have achieved three wins and two draws in these five games!

With the whistle blowing for the final game, Bury's season is officially over!

Their league record is fixed at 36 wins and ten draws, and they are unbeaten this season!

At the end of the game, the system's voice sounded again: "Achieve an undefeated season, increase the coach's overall rating by 5 points, and reward a damage reduction card."

Zhang Chong couldn't help but feel elated. It turned out that there was an extra reward for being undefeated this season.

After these two upgrades, Zhang Chong's coaching overall rating has reached 120.

Injury reduction cards, as the name suggests, can greatly shorten the recovery period of an injured player and protect the player from the aftereffects of long-term injuries!

Many players suffered a sharp decline in physical fitness due to a long-term injury, which caused the level of competition to plummet.

And this card will exempt them from this effect!

Looking at this card, Zhang Chong suddenly thought of a person in his mind.

That was a talented player he met in his previous life.

In 2009, his echelon played a friendly match with the Sichuan team preparing for the National Games.

In that game, there was a thin young man who was very eye-catching. It is no exaggeration to say that his technical ability stands out from the crowd.

Zhang Chong still remembers his agility, superhuman vision and sharp passing. He once thought that this man would become the core midfielder of the Chinese team in the future!

But he was accidentally injured in that game. Not only did he miss the final stage of the National Games, but he also had to rest for six months because of the torn lateral collateral ligament of his right knee!

Since then, the former star of hope has gradually embarked on another path.

Long-term injuries caused the French club Metz to abandon him.At this time, his teammate Pjanic has already made a name for himself at the Roma Club, and his other teammate Mane has also begun to gain fame...

In 2012, he joined the Luxembourg team Esch Youth, and scored two goals in the 2013 Europa League qualifying match, becoming the No.1 goal of China's Europa League, which became his last glory.

At the end of 2013, he was seriously injured again, had to undergo surgery on both legs, and began a one-and-a-half year recuperation career.

Since then, he has no chance of becoming a first-line player.

And this person is called Wang Chu.

At this time, he should be in the long recovery period.

This summer, Zhang Chong decided to meet him.

But at this time, Zhang Chong still has a lot of club affairs to deal with.

At the end of the season, as the champion of League Two, Bury won a championship bonus of [-] pounds.

Yes, I'm not mistaken, a league champion, only [-] pounds in prize money.

When Zhang Chong saw the bonus amount, the corners of his mouth couldn't help twitching.

Is that too little?

Adding in the prize money from the Johnstone Paints Championship, Bury earned just under £[-].

And the bonus they have to pay the players is a total of 13 pounds...

Fortunately, there is still a compensation for the youth training expenses of the League Two, a total of 25 pounds, which comforts Zhang Chong's injured heart.

After the players get the bonus, they can go on vacation happily.They will usher in a two-month vacation, which is also their most leisurely time of the year.

The employees are on vacation, but the hard-working boss, Comrade Zhang Chong, still has a lot of work to do.

On the third day after winning the championship, general manager Weller brought the club's financial statements for this season.

This season, the club has realized a total profit of 30 pounds, which is extremely rare to have a positive profit.

Due to the unexpected results of this season, the ticket revenue has greatly exceeded expectations, which has also led to a substantial increase in the team's revenue, thereby achieving profitability.

The excellent results also attracted the attention of sponsors.

A few days ago, the club got two new sponsorship contracts, which will increase their income by £20 a year for the next five years.

However, there are also hidden worries. Due to the promotion to the League One, almost all players' wages will go up, and even many players' wages are still 30.00%. This is also a big pressure on the club's finances.

Moreover, although Zhang Chong made a capital injection of 200 million before and after, a considerable part of it was repaid the loan. Today, the club's book funds are still about 130 million pounds, but the loan still has 100 million pounds outstanding.

Zhang Chong rubbed his forehead: "How much money can we spend to sign up?"

Since the veteran Miller, old goalkeeper Jason, Old Hans and Pratt will all leave the team at the end of this season, the loaned left forward Danny Meyer and forward Forrester will also return to their home team, so he needs signings There are still many places.

Weller said truthfully: "Next season, our ticket revenue is expected to increase by 20.00%, but the salary expenditure is also expected to increase by 20.00%. The extra £20 next season needs to be used to repay this year's loan, so theoretically you have £130 million to spend on signings."

Zhang Chong couldn't help asking: "In theory?"

"There still needs to be some liquidity in the club's account," Weller said.

Zhang Chong frowned: "How much do you think is more appropriate?"

Weller tentatively said, "What do you think about keeping 100 million?"

Zhang Chong glanced at him: "Is it because you are too drifting, or I can't lift the knife?"

Weller sneered: "Why don't you keep 80?"

Zhang Chong didn't speak, but just squinted at Weller.

Weller showed a very heartbroken look: "50, it can't be less, and we may have a liquidity crisis..."

Zhang Chong glanced at him, expressionless: "Forget it, I will inject another 100 million pounds."

Weller immediately smiled: "Boss, thank you!"
