my name is colane

Chapter 618
Hugo stood up contentedly, and shook hands with Platini, Del Nido and others. Del Nido is the chairman of Sevilla, and Sevilla is also a member of the European Club Association. After losing, he Maintaining a good demeanor, he not only congratulated Hugo, but also praised Messi's performance emphatically.

"Thank you, Mr. Del Nido. A Super Bowl game is not considered an important event. You have performed very well. It is not an easy task to beat you!" Hugo said politely while holding Del Nido's hand .

In the evening, Le Graet invited Platini, Hugo, Del Nido and others to have dinner together. This kind of dinner is mainly to connect with each other and enhance mutual friendship. Del Nido asked Hugo about your Serie A past. There's always been big money, and how this summer can't be the same.

"Because there is no money!" Hugo said with a shrug.

That's right, no money. Seeing that the transfer window of Serie A is about to close, the teams have no strong reinforcements. Trapani made a net profit of more than [-] million euros in this summer's transfer window , It is very abnormal to make a lot of money without spending much money.

So far, the biggest spending club in the Italian transfer market is the newly promoted giant Juventus. They have invested more than 6000 million in total and bought many players. They must have ambitions for the new season, not to mention competing for the championship. At the very least, they want to qualify for the Champions League. Champions League qualification means money. It is something that must be obtained for the heavy burdened teams. Fortunately, the Serie A points have been high these years, and there are four places.

Such as the Milan duo and the Roma duo did not invest a lot. With the economic recession, Inter Milan’s chairman Moratti also felt that it was difficult. Old Bei’s life is considered easy. He still has money, but he has also tightened up under the big form own money.

As for the Roma duo, Rosella is still lingering. Where does he have any funds to invest, and this summer he had to sell Chivu to Inter Milan.Not to mention the miser Lotito, he will not spend a lot of money.

Other small and medium-sized teams are trying their best to maintain their financial situation. The southern team is particularly difficult because the standard of living in the south is even worse, and the fans have little money. Pirated jerseys are flying everywhere. The survival of the southern teams depends on the fans. Money, they can only make a fuss about buying and selling players. Now that the economy is in a downturn, the football market is getting hotter and hotter. The cost of team operations continues to rise. have.

Many team presidents actually thanked Hugo secretly, because Hugo bought the broadcasting rights at a price that exceeded expectations, and the broadcasting income of each team was much higher.

However, when De Laurentiis invited many teams to share the advertising revenue, no one would think about Hugo because of poverty. No matter how small a mosquito is, it is meat to them.

When it comes to poor words, everyone at the dinner party has thoughts. Sevilla is also poor. They have trained many excellent players, but in the end they all went to Real Madrid or Barcelona. In Spain, there are only these two teams. Crazy confidence to buy people.

"The current situation is terrible! But Mr. Colani, I don't believe you when you say you have no money!" Del Nido shook his head and said.

"We are also poor in Trapani, brother. After calculation, our salary expenditure this season has already accounted for 70.00% of the team's income! Think about the consequences if I don't sell people?!" Hugo smiled wryly.

Le Graet, Del Nido and others were horrified. Trapani's ratio is too scary. This is a terrifying ratio.

Half of the time, a team should try to keep their salary expenditure at about 50.00% of their income, which is a relatively safe line.

As Hugo said, if they don’t sell people, the ratio will be higher, the loss will be more, and Hugo will spend more money every year. Even if Hugo is willing to spend, he can’t spend it like this. Sooner or later, Platini's financial fairness will not pass, but it will harm the team.

It is difficult for a team to change its face in one season. From an operational point of view, Trapani used high salaries to attract players to join in the early years. In addition to Hugo's superstar policy, the team's salary It is getting higher and higher, and the strength of the team is also increasing. It was a long-term process to finally win the Triple Crown last season. Now the Trapani Club is actually somewhat conscious of controlling salary expenditures, but not It may directly reduce the salary target. If you choose a radical approach to sell people, then the strength of the team will inevitably be affected.

Therefore, it is a long-term process to preserve strength and control salary. There is still time now. If Platini’s policy comes out and then rush to remedy it, it may have a great impact on the strength of the team. The future of business development is full of uncertainties. Rain If the ticket cannot be guaranteed, it is not in vain to say that it has harmed the team.

Trapani's selling practices this summer are influenced by this reason.

Every team faces this kind of problem, such as Sevilla, they also hope to achieve good results, but if the players perform well, the salary should always be raised, the renewal signing fee, the benefits of the agent, These are always a big burden. It is better to take advantage of the interest of the giants and simply sell the players. At worst, they will train them again. This is the helplessness of small and medium teams.

Unless they are lucky enough to qualify for the Champions League and receive a large amount of money, which may relieve great pressure and consider retaining their star players, it will be difficult. The honor and conflict of interests between the players and the club will make The two sides drifted apart.

"However, I am not worried! I am confident that the team's salary will be reduced to a suitable control within three years! Haha, it's not that I don't want to buy people, it's that there are no good goals! Our team has It’s a good foundation, and not buying people doesn’t mean our strength has declined.” Hugo said again in a relaxed tone.

"Haha, money is easy to do!" Del Nido concluded.

"Yes, I have the money, but that old fellow Platini will have to engage in his fairness sooner or later, which is not easy to deal with." Hugo scolded with a smile.

"That's why you objected to him doing that?!" said Le Graet.

"No, no! That's a good idea! I'm sure it's a good idea, a really good idea! If I didn't support him, I wouldn't call everyone to form this association!" Hugo shook his head.

Everyone laughed, and Del Nido said: "Mr. Colani, do you mean that the association has to listen to him?!"

"Of course not, the association listens to us! We should fight for what is beneficial to us. Now it is different! Our association now has so many members, we are responsible for our members, not Mr. Platini!" Rain If there is no sense of incongruity.

Everyone was satisfied with what they heard. Many people were not satisfied with the previous agreement. Everyone was afraid that the association would be Platini's dog in power.

"In other words, his principle of fairness is very good, and it is good for everyone. At least those wealthy families have restrained their pace of buying people, so you can keep them." Hugo seemed not to regard himself as a wealthy family.

"I hope so!" Del Nido sighed.

There is also another possibility of the New Deal, which is to make the small ball worse. It is difficult to make money investing in football. Many owners have various reasons for investing. The principle of fairness limits their investment. Smaller clubs may find it harder to sell their players and the financial situation may be even worse.

Hugo is not stupid, he knows the potential danger that may exist, but what does it matter to him? !Whether Platini is on stage or not has nothing to do with him, and it is impossible for him to promote the development of European football. It would be nice if he could benefit Italian football.

Even if they can't keep up with the trend in Italy, Hugo feels that he has nothing to do if he is dying.
