Football giants

Chapter 758
Horabchian and others would think so, and Yang Huan would naturally think in this direction.

I have to admit that the group of Brazilian players held by Shakhtar Donetsk is indeed quite good.

In the past few years, Ukrainian tycoons have also benefited from these players.

Even, don't look at Joorabchian, Bertolucci and others who are asking for themselves now, it seems very pitiful, but in fact?They are somewhat self-inflicted.

Why desperately put so many players, some even players whose positions overlap seriously, into Shakhtar Donetsk?

Isn't it because Ukraine is powerful and rich?

Coupled with the fact that Shakhtar Donetsk can play in the Champions League every year, the potential for player appreciation is huge.

Last summer, Fernandinho cheated Manchester City of 4000 million euros, and William also sold an astonishingly high price.

With these two transfers, Shakhtar Donetsk made a lot of money.

Could it be that Joorabchian and Bertolucci didn't get a share of it?

Therefore, even though what they said was miserable on the surface, Yang Huan was still analyzing the pros and cons rationally in his heart.

"Among these people, there are not many players who meet our requirements. Wellington Nem, Fred, Luis Adriano, Bernard, Fernando, Douglas Costa and Alex. I want these seven players."

Yang Huan's words immediately surprised Horabchian and Bertolucci.

This Young Master Huan is Young Master Huan, his vision is too vicious, and almost all the players selected are the best and most potential players.

"My request is very simple. We will arrange these players to play for other teams. We promise to give them enough game training, but they must obey our arrangement. This is not negotiable."

Joorabchian and Bertolucci looked at each other and readily agreed to this condition.

They are asking for help from others now. Who in the entire European football world has the courage to swallow this group of players in one go like Master Huan?

Even with this financial resources, there must be a place to arrange players.

I'm afraid even a super predator like Mendes doesn't have this ability?

Therefore, unless they want to break up the players and look for buyers one by one, otherwise, they can only cooperate with Master Huan.

"One more thing, if I remember correctly, Shakhtar Donetsk's salary for players is generally high."

This is also the condition for Shakhtar Donetsk to attract Brazilian players to Ukraine. Otherwise, which player is willing to give up the excellent European team and play in the icy Ukraine?

Of course, this also has certain advantages.

That is, after the experience in Ukraine, the players who come out are generally very adaptable.

Except for the case of Ziglinski joining Barcelona, ​​the others seem to be relatively successful.

"In my case, all the players' salaries must be renegotiated. It is impossible for me to pay the players such a high salary."

This one made Joorabchian and Bertolucci a little embarrassed.

It is easy to increase the salary of players, but it is more difficult to lower it.

But what Master Huan said was not completely unreasonable.

From the perspective of a rational operator, Shakhtar Donetsk relies on high salaries to attract players, but Master Huan doesn't need it at all. Even with the resources in Master Huan's hands, players should cut their salaries to join.

After all, Southampton's ability to cultivate stars is well known all over the world.

"Master Huan, this one, we promise that we are willing to try our best to convince the players, and please believe that our most important idea now is to escape from Ukraine!" Joorabchian said rather embarrassed.

Yang Huan nodded, asking the players to cut their salaries is indeed quite difficult, but Yang Huan believes that they will make a reasonable choice.

"The last one, the transfer fee!"

It should be said that this is also the most critical one.

The current situation is that the players have to run away. Shakhtar Donetsk knows their situation and may not be able to keep the players, so they want to cash out and recover the cost as much as possible.

So, in this case, should Yang Huan take a bargain price?
"Pini!" Yang Huan looked at Pini Zahavi again.

"Master Huan!"

"I've been very busy recently. Please help me with this matter. You can talk to Shakhtar Donetsk. I want these seven players, and I can pay them all in cash, but the transfer fee cannot exceed 6000 million euros!"

6000 euros?
Joorabchian and Bertolucci were a little surprised when they heard that, isn't this too low?
On average, a player is less than 1000 million, how is it possible?
But on second thought, why is it impossible?
With the current situation in Ukraine, anyone is worried, not only they want to escape, but even the boss of Shakhtar Donetsk is also thinking about fleeing.

Since they all wanted to escape, did they run away with the players?Or run away with cash?

You must know that in most European leagues, players are not allowed to be held by third-party organizations.

Besides, the players are alive and kicking, once they run away, who can control them?
Well, even if you don't run, but after a year or two, the player's contract is up, and you won't get a penny.

Yang Huan smiled slightly, "I have received news that Renato Akhmetov, the owner of Shakhtar Donetsk, is my neighbor..."

"Your neighbor?" Joorabchian gasped.

Not only him, but even Bertolucci and Pini Zahavi were also surprised.

Does this Ukrainian billionaire live in Southampton?
Yang Huan laughed, "A few years ago, he bought a luxurious penthouse at One Hyde Park in London, which is next door to mine!"

Everyone suddenly realized that it was this kind of neighbor.

But what Yang Huan thought was funny was that the location of Renato Akhmetov's villa was worse than his own, and the supporting facilities were worse than his own, but in the end, the price was much higher than his own.

The reason is very simple. One Hyde Park, known as the most expensive residential area in the world, was slaughtered by local tyrants like Renato Akhmetov and Hamad, and I got a very cheap friendship price through the relationship of the Grosvenor family.

But that's beside the point!
"I received news that Akhmetov supported the former president of Ukraine, but the latter has now gone to Russia, so his situation in Ukraine is very embarrassing. Recently, he has been transferring assets to Europe, so I believe that he will be more interested in cash than in players."

The former president has collapsed, and when a new leadership team comes up, the first thing to do is to liquidate the past.

In this case, Akhmetov chose to transfer assets to Europe, which is a matter of course.

Pini Zahavi heard it, and immediately smiled, "If that's the case, then I know how to talk!"

Yang Huan nodded appreciatively towards the Israelis.

This is the smartest part of Pini Zahavi, he will always know and help you get what you want.

At this moment, someone knocked on the door of the conference room.

Ron Gurley opened the door and walked in, "Master Huan, the venue is almost set up, and everyone is here."

For this sponsor meeting, although it was a bit rushed, the club attached great importance to it.

When did Manchester United's business empire start to rise?

Didn't it start in [-] when the Red Devils defeated Bayern Munich and won the Champions League and the Triple Crown?
If Southampton doesn't know how to make good use of the team's outstanding performance in the Champions League this time, build momentum for the club, and promote it commercially, it will be too weak.

Besides, Peter Kenyon and Ron Gourley are both the founders of Manchester United's Red Devils business empire. They have the previous operation experience, and Southampton's foundation is so good, it will naturally be more efficient.

"Okay, you can discuss this matter again, how to do it specifically, and report to Ron later."

Yang Huan's words made Pini Zahavi and others stand up quickly and nodded in unison.

"In addition, I will ask the people in the technical department to prepare a report later. If this transaction is successful, then at all, Barbosa will not have to leave Brazil, and Luis Adriano will be loaned to Ajax directly!"

This might not be an option, after all, Adriano's immediate combat power is stronger.

Barbosa is indeed talented, but he is still too young, and no one knows how much he can have immediately. It is better to let him stay in Brazil with peace of mind and continue to maintain this momentum of progress.

Watching Master Huan leave the meeting room, Horabchian and Bertolucci looked at each other, and then looked at Pini Zahavi again.

Now, what to do is up to the Israelites.

Pini Zahavi suddenly smiled, "Don't look at me like that, Master Huan entrusted this matter to me, which proves that he trusts me and you, so we just need to do things well and do good things."

Both Joorabchian and Bertolucci kept nodding. They had no choice at all now.

"Actually, although many people call us human traffickers, and some even call us vampires, those who work in our business must know how to judge people and situations."

"In recent years, a word has become popular in European football, MCO, which is the multi-club co-ownership model!"

Joorabchian and Bertolucci have also heard about it to some extent, but they are certainly not as familiar and understanding as Pini Zahavi.

"The Pozzo family in Italy, the Red Bull Group in Thailand, and Roland Duchatelet, a rich man in Belgium, are all pioneers of this multi-club co-ownership model. The latter just bought Charlton in January [-]. He also won Carl Zeiss Jena in Germany, Alcorcon in Spain, and Standard Liege in Belgium before."

"I have also received news that Manchester City has decided to set up a city football group. They will set up football teams in New York and Melbourne, and set up a youth training camp in Ghana. They are also interested in investing in teams such as Sporting Lisbon."

Having said that, Pini Zahavi laughed again.

"But among so many people, I am most optimistic about Young Master Huan. Do you know why?"

Both Joorabchian and Bertolucci shook their heads.

"Because of other people's operating model, it is difficult for people to see the hope of making a profit. It all depends on investors burning money behind the scenes, or like the Pozzo family, it is difficult to do business at a low price."

"Master Ke Huan is different. He wants to link up the entire industry chain, and he has strong resources to support him. Among other things, the player data analysis and research system for Southampton is enough to ensure the success of players. The strong commercial operation capabilities of Miracle Media are even more star-making tools."

"At least, I am very optimistic about this set of models!"

Having said that, Pini Zahavi didn't say anything more.

But the eyes seem to be saying, what should be said, I have already said, you can figure it out yourself.

If you want to catch up with Master Huan's train, this time is a very good opportunity.

Because Yang Huan's model needs the endless supply of raw materials for players from Brazil and Argentina.

And this is precisely what Joorabchian and Bertolucci are best at.

Thinking of this, both Joorabchian and Bertolucci knew that they should make a decision.

There is a good saying, want to join?
Yes, Nato certificate!
