Mister Legend

Chapter 397

While the Italian media were analyzing, predicting and discussing the Torino Derby in the Coppa Italia final two months later, at the team staff morning meeting on Thursday, the medical team announced the death of several players. Injuries, just like the results given by the FM system, the Red Bulls encountered a serious shortage of personnel.

Ranocchia, Dickman, Gourcuff, Moretti and Falk all need more than ten days of training. Not only will they not be able to play in this weekend's league, they will not even be able to keep up with the crucial away game against Rome next weekend. up.Only Silvestri, who was diagnosed with a soft tissue injury in the nose, will not be absent for too long. If he takes protective measures, he should be able to play in the Europa League quarter-finals match against Lokomotiv Moscow next week.

According to Li Moody's previous plan, due to the two strong opponents of Roma and Fiorentina in the next two weeks, this week's home game against the underdog Crotone will carry out a large-scale rotation of the lineup and deploy players in turn Physical fitness, so that they can successfully pass the half-month difficult schedule.However, a sudden wave of injuries has directly reduced the number of regularly available players in the first team to a level that can fill the 23-man roster, and the prospects are hardly optimistic.

Fortunately, the opponents after three days are really not that strong. The Turin team still has the home court advantage, and the chances of winning are still very high. The key lies in whether the head coach dares to be bolder in the rankings and let more old players While resting, it can also provide more opportunities for young people in the youth training camp to show themselves.

Since time was very tight, Li Mudi didn't think about this matter for too long.In the afternoon, the Turin youth team's striker Johannes Egerstein, right back Simone Ambrogio, center back Ricardo Marchiza, left back Luca Pellegri Five teenagers, including Alessandro Bastoni and the central defender Alessandro Bastoni, who can play as a guest left back, were temporarily transferred to the first team, and did not enter the youth team's registration list for this week's game, which means that they are almost certain At least he will sit on the bench for the game between the first team and Crotone.

This news has become a hot topic in the fan forums in the past two days. Everyone is very excited that their youth training may usher in an explosion.Even if you look at the regulations of the football world alone, except for Ambrogio, the other four boys are not currently considered as Turin youth training, and it will take at least two years to meet the relevant requirements, but this does not hinder the football team. The team's supporters couldn't wait to express their joy after seeing the bright future prospects of the Red Bulls.

Li Mudi really intends to reuse these young people from the youth team in the next league, and because they were often drawn up to train with the first team before, and the tactics used by each echelon of the club are also different. Keep it consistent, so it is not a big problem in terms of fitness.

However, even if Crotone is a team in the relegation circle, its strength is much stronger than that of the youth team. The boys need to show [-]% of their abilities to be able to compete with experienced opponents.Therefore, the training intensity of these two days has been adjusted to a relatively high level. It is intended to let them get used to the fierce game rhythm and physical confrontation of the adult team. prepare for.

On Friday night, the Turin coach, who had finished a busy day of work, dragged his slightly tired body and did not go home directly, but had other arrangements.His parents returned to Mallorca yesterday, and it has been more than a month since they left the farm there. Although there are hired employees to look after them, Li's mother is still not at ease.Besides, the two old people are still more accustomed to the climate and living environment in the outskirts of the Spanish island. No matter how good the son's place is, it is not as comfortable as his own home.

At the invitation of the sponsor, Lin Yuner went to France to participate in the annual Paris Spring Fashion Week. Since there are a lot of activities to attend, she will not come back until the end of the fashion week.It just so happened that Qi Zu sent Li Mudi two tickets for the UEFA Champions League quarter-final second-leg match between Paris Saint-Germain and Real Madrid next Tuesday. The Turin coach had no time to watch the match in person because he wanted to lead the team to the Europa League match. Handed over these two tickets, which had been fired by scalpers to more than 7000 euros, to his girlfriend.

Lin Yuner decided to take her manager named Park Kimchi Country to watch the match at the Prince Stadium. The latter, who is a crazy fan, was so excited that she flew from Asia to Paris early, waited on her saddle, and even treated Lin Yuner well on the Internet. A pass of praise successfully made the latter a hot search person in Kimchi Country this week.

So now Li Mudi is the only one left in the family, which seems very deserted.But he didn't go back immediately after get off work that day. Naturally, he didn't want to go out to enjoy the nightlife, but to make an appointment with someone. A lawyer from China was waiting for the Turin coach in a coffee shop not far from the club's residence. 's arrival

As mentioned before, Li Moody has always had a wish, that is, to acquire a European football club by himself, so that he can completely control all the construction, operation, transfer and other work as in the game, instead of being controlled by others everywhere as he is now.But the reality is extremely cruel. It is said that he currently has a reserve fund of up to 2200 million euros, which is considered a small rich man in Europe with a highly developed economy, but it is far from enough to acquire a club that meets the basic conditions.

Not to mention individual countries that do not allow foreigners to own clubs, nor to mention leagues that rank outside the top ten in Europe, just look at the seven highest-ranked European leagues: Spain, England, Germany, Italy, France, Portugal, and the Netherlands. In the football circle, it is very difficult for Li Moody to open up the situation in any one.

More than half of Spanish clubs implement a membership system, and club ownership cannot be attributed to individuals. A few have poor strength in implementing a shareholding system, and the equity structure is complicated. A team without hundreds of millions of euros can't grab the right to speak at all.As for running low-level league teams like Xu Gengbao, it is not a good choice. The cities where those teams are located are basically small, which means that the market is not big, and there is almost no chance of developing into a top team. possible.

This constraint also applies to the four countries of Italy, France, Portugal and the Netherlands. Teams in big cities with solid foundations are expensive, and almost no one will sell them, and those who can afford them have little development. Potential is not within the scope of key considerations.

Germany also has similar problems, but the main reason why the country's teams cannot be acquired is the famous "50+1" policy.The statutes of the German Football Association and the Bundesliga stipulate that when each football club makes major decisions, internal members must have at least 51% of the voting rights, and business partners or investors can only have a maximum of 49% of the voting rights.That is to say, even if Li Moody completely bought a certain German team, he would not be able to monopolize the operation of the team, and must be supervised and restricted by the general members, which is equivalent to spending [-]% of the money but only being the second master , no one would be so stupid.

Except for a few teams such as Leverkusen and Wolfsburg, which are completely invested and established by enterprises, they do not have to fully abide by this clause. The rest of the teams, including Bayern Munich, must strictly abide by this clause. rules.Of course, as a listed company, Dortmund can also ignore this regulation in name, but the equity of the Hornet is more complicated, so I won’t describe it in detail here.

The implementation of the "50+1" policy has successfully helped Germany limit the invasion of gold dollar football, ensure the financial health of the team, maintain the stability of German football, and avoid the occurrence of local tyrants disrupting the domestic market to the greatest extent. It also caused them to gradually be left behind by the leagues of other European countries in terms of financial resources, and their competitiveness has dropped significantly.

This season, the performance of the German team in the European war is very bad. The three teams participating in the European League were all eliminated in the group stage. At present, there are only two old faces of Bayern and Dortmund and Salzburg. Red Bull's three teams remained, and the league's instant ranking was surpassed by Italy, becoming the "European Fourth League".In the past two years, although there have been frequent incidents of people proposing to abolish this clause, they have all disappeared in the end. This also declares that it is almost impossible for outsiders to enter the country's football circle.

Finally, there is the English team. The British peninsula and their deadly enemy Germany have completely gone to two extremes. The football world there is the most active capital in the world. As long as you have enough money, you can buy any team. .Of course, except for those controlled by Russian oligarchs (need to rationalize the transfer of assets and club owners need to avoid the Russian government’s pursuit) and Middle Eastern royal family local tyrants (in order to increase their influence and connections in the world, in addition to some ZZ purposes), after all Everyone is not short of money.

So in theory, buying an English team is Li Moody's most ideal choice, but this choice is still unreliable because he doesn't have enough money.Due to the impact of large-scale capital investment, the market value of England's teams at all levels has risen steadily in the past ten years. There are more Turin teams. The total assets of at least one-third of the teams in the British Championship have surpassed that of the Red Bulls. In the past two years, the Chinese sponsors have brought a lot of economic benefits to the latter. This is the case in other countries. Something unimaginable at all.

2000 million euros doesn't seem too small, but in England, it is estimated that at most it can buy a team that is at the bottom of the fourth tier league, and it has to catch up with the owner's intention to sell it, otherwise it can only be obtained from English football. The National League begins.Wanting to bring this kind of semi-amateur team to the top, even with the help of the FM system, without more than ten years of painstaking efforts, Li Moody doesn't think he has the opportunity to be like those described in those online sports novels. As soon as he was promoted, he became a giant immediately after reaching the Premier League, that would be too flirtatious.

Although he believes that if he really wants to acquire a football club in the future, the probability of finally choosing the UK will be more than [-]%, but judging from the current financial situation, it is almost impossible to achieve the goal in a short time , it seems that making more money is king!
And just when the Turin coach gradually put the idea of ​​owning his own team on hold, he received news from China that the team in his hometown intends to sell part of the shares due to financial and management reasons. Immediately, I thought about whether the No.1 player in the domestic football world could be involved, so I contacted Li Mudi through his agent Guinness at the end of last year.

In 2014, JAC Litian Football Club, funded by JAC Litian Group, was formally established. It won the championship of the Eastern Division of the Tianchao Football League C in that year, and was promoted to the Tianyi League. No.5 in the League South.At the end of that year, Beijiang Volcano Mingquan Green Natural Mineral Water Co., Ltd. purchased all the shares of the club and officially changed its name to Volcano Mingquan Football Club, becoming the fifth professional football club in the history of the province. At the Bingcheng International Convention, Exhibition and Sports Center. On November 2017, 11, the Volcano Mingquan team defeated their opponents with a score of 5 to 3, won the championship of the Tianyi League last season, and successfully qualified for this year's Tianyi League.

In the more than two years since the company took over the club, although the team's performance was good, the operating conditions were very average. It can be seen from the financial report released by the company in November last year that the club's total assets at that time were 1394 Wanruan girl, but her net assets are negative 3380 million, which is a serious insolvent state.In order not to affect the normal operation of the team, Volcano Mingquan Green Natural Mineral Water Co., Ltd. decided to transfer part of the club's equity as soon as possible, in exchange for some funds to help the team relegation or even advance to the Super League.

As we all know, there is no need to question the enthusiasm of fans in Ice City and even Northern Xinjiang, but the economic environment there is not optimistic. Several teams including Yi Teng and others failed to stay in the end, which has a major relationship with the club's low income. associated.Even if the club managers were willing to "sell" the shares at a low price, the response they received was very dismal. Only one company related to road maintenance showed their willingness to take over, but the conditions proposed were somewhat harsh. 300% stake.

Originally in a helpless situation, the investor of Volcanic Spring was about to grit his teeth and agree to the plan, but the officials of the Provincial Football Association learned about it and reported it to the deputy mayor of the provincial ZF in charge of sports, which led to the incident of contacting Li Mudi .Before the Turin coach returned to his hometown, he took many actions to support the popularization of football in the local area, which left a deep impression on the leaders.

After learning that his hometown team was suffering, Li Mudi stood up without hesitation and chose to help them through the temporary difficulties.He entrusted his cousin to set up a sports investment company, and then purchased 600% of the shares of Huoshan Mingquan Football Club for 29 million soft girls. At the same time, he agreed that if the other party needed to sell the remaining shares in the future, at the same price, he would enjoy Right of first refusal.In addition, he also hired a part-time financial director from Baozi's accounting firm to go to the club from time to time to supervise the use of finances to avoid possible waste or even malicious embezzlement.

After signing his name on the contract handed over by the lawyer in the coffee shop, Li Moody officially became the second largest shareholder of the Volcano Mingquan Football Club. The owners are all Turin coaches.
