Reborn Russia as an oligarch

Chapter 744 Jin Yuan Era
Wang Ye asked curiously: "Has your board of directors not discussed additional funds? Why do you need to transfer shares to solve financial problems?"

David Dane shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Of course we discussed it.

Because I am a major shareholder, I have proposed more than once on the board of directors that I hope that each shareholder will add an additional 5000 million pounds in accordance with the proportion of their shares.

With this money, the situation of the club can actually be eased.

If the club's competitive performance next season is good, they can enter the Champions Cup, or even get a good ranking, then the situation can be completely reversed.

It is a pity that other shareholders do not agree. They only hope to get dividends from the club instead of subsidizing the club with money from their own pockets.

Some shareholders even proposed to sell the team stars.

This is completely the practice of drinking poison to quench thirst, and I firmly oppose it!

Therefore, the current board of directors of the club is actually very divided, everyone's opinions are not unified, and they are relatively pessimistic about the future of the club..."

Wang Ye was thoughtful, too, maybe it was because it was too easy to make money by himself.

It feels like tens of millions of pounds is not a lot of money, but in fact, for most people, including the small shareholders of the Arsenal club, this is a huge sum of money!

Perhaps those shareholders invested in the Arsenal Club not because they love football, but because they value return on investment.

Now Arsenal's performance is not good, the team is in a downturn and heavily in debt, and many shareholders have begun to quit.

Don't say let them continue to invest money and increase investment, don't even talk about it!

They also want to take advantage of the time when Arsenal is more valuable, and quickly transfer the shares to get away...

…………

"[-] million pounds... the price is reasonable. There is no problem with loan repayment and additional transfer budget, but is this transfer budget enough? There don't seem to be many superstars in the team right now," Wang Ye said casually. asked.

In his memory, only the invincible Arsenal in the 0304 season, the most impressive one is naturally Henry the Great.

It seems that Henry has truly grown into a football superstar since the 0304 season.

As for the other stars of the Arsenal team, Wang Ye can't remember, oh, there seems to be a midfielder Vieira, who is also a super capable player and Henry's teammate in the French national team.

Because the head coach Wenger is a French chicken, there are more French chicken players in the Arsenal team.

At the most exaggerated time, almost half of the main players of the French team are Arsenal players...

Speaking of players, David Dane is very familiar, and introduced: "Although there are not many superstars in the team, the players are all very strong, such as Bergkamp, ​​Henry, Vieira, Ljungberg, etc., have either Be famous, or have the potential to become a superstar. Especially forward Henry, this young man is growing fast and has great potential, and is expected to become a sharp knife for the team to destroy the city!"

The players he mentioned, Wang Ye knew, were indeed the backbone of Arsenal at their peak.

Except for Bergkamp, ​​this star is relatively old and seems to be about to retire.

Don't tell me, the current Arsenal team really doesn't need to invest too much money in renovation after buying it.

Because under the management of head coach Wenger, the team framework has already been established, and it is waiting for Henry and the others to grow up and get good results.

In contrast, Abramovich's side is a bit "miserable".

After buying Chelsea, he has invested heavily in team transformation for several consecutive years.

It can be said that the money to buy players is several times the money to buy a club.

It's not that Wang Ye has no money, or is unwilling to spend money, because in football, it's useless to rely on money sometimes.

First of all, you may not be able to buy your favorite star, and the opposing club is unwilling to sell it, or the Lions ask for a sky-high price, and you still have to consider whether you want to be taken advantage of.

Second, even if you buy a bunch of superstars, you may not be able to achieve results. Maybe because there are too many superstars, the head coach can't hold the field, and there are many conflicts in the locker room, but the results will become worse.

Therefore, like Arsenal, they have a good foundation and framework, a rich background, and an excellent head coach to build a team framework.

The team style has also matured, the team lineup is stable, and it only needs to be strengthened in certain positions to achieve results.

After Abramovich and Wang Ye both buy the team and invest the same amount of money, Wang Ye dares to say that Arsenal's results will definitely surpass Chelsea!
After all, Chelsea was a team that didn't slip away before, and there were no decent stars in the team. It needed a complete rebuild, which meant that the team was in turmoil for a long time.

It is impossible for an unstable team to produce results!

…………

"So, after the acquisition of the club, Mr. Mikhail, you don't need to invest too much money in team transformation. At most, the transfer funds are 3000 to [-] million pounds per year. If the club performs well later, even the transfer funds , you can also earn it yourself by playing in the Champions League, so you don’t need additional investment.”

David Dane was afraid that Wang Ye would be scared off because of too much investment.

What he said is not unreasonable. In that era, when football was not "golden dollars", most clubs were self-sufficient.

Small clubs with mediocre performance can not only support the entire club, but also make profits every year through the income from league broadcasts, training players to sell to big clubs, and home tickets.

As for the big clubs, except for some teams with rich and powerful owners or clubs with particularly good commercial development, such as Inter Milan and Real Madrid, other clubs also make money by playing in the Champions League, commercial development, or even playing exhibition games, friendly matches, commercial performances, etc. Get funds for club operations and development.

Among them, the Champions League bonus is a big one!
As long as they can get the place in the Champions League, it will be almost tens of millions of euros, which is definitely a lot of money for most clubs.

You must know that in that era, the value of players was not "inflated". Only a very small number of big-name players could sell for more than tens of millions of euros.

Most of the practical blue-collar players are still very cheap.

A quasi-rich club like Arsenal rarely has big signings.

In fact, Wang Ye didn't know that in the summer of 2003, when the so-called "Golden Dollar Era" led by Abramovich's Chelsea came, the transfer fees of most clubs were not much.

This year, Abu Hao threw 1.7 million euros, which caused a sensation in the world of football!
Barcelona, ​​which ranks No.2, has a transfer budget of just over 4000 million euros.

No.3 Manchester United, 3800 million euros.

No.4 Real Madrid, 3500 million euros...

At that time, the exchange rate of the pound to the euro was 1:1.5, so the transfer budget of 2000 million pounds proposed by David Dane was already equal to 3000 million euros.

In David Dane's mind, this amount is already very high...
