American Fortune Life

"It's a problem on the court." Joe Lewis narrowed his eyes, took a cigar, spit out smoke, and let it float around.

Tottenham Hotspur, as a team with a long history, also belongs to the London area, has a huge fan base, and also has the influence of a quasi-luxury. From a geometric time, it is even better than Chelsea's reputation. Where can our weak enemies get weak?

This is a balance of income and expenditure. Although there are some liabilities, the team that is profitable enough to cover the liabilities is limited by the size of the White Hart Lane stadium, with only 36,240 seats. The annual game day income is about 44 million pounds, only The game day's revenue for Tottenham is nearly 60 million pounds less than Manchester United with Old Trafford.

However, how many seats can be expanded to expand the stadium? It is undoubtedly the best solution to build a new stadium. However, the cost of building a new stadium can even buy two teams of the size of Spurs. Expensive project.

Do n’t think that Joe Lewis and Levy have never played the idea of ​​building a new stadium, but unfortunately they are really lacking in mentality. At this time, the operation is in good condition and the balance of payments is huge.

The strong team that invested a lot of money in the six seasons failed to achieve the corresponding results. In the face of fierce competition for the Champions League, the sale of the club may be the best way to get rid of this burden. After all, he only spent 2200 Ten thousand pounds bought Tottenham.

"The valuation of 220 million pounds, I think you should be able to accept, pay me 145 million pounds, Tottenham will belong to you. Young man, this is my bottom line, if you even get this price you If I refuse to accept it, I can only apologize. "After a moment of groaning, Lewis said in a low voice.

Although the other party's tone is not very comfortable to listen to, it is full of sincerity. After all, this negotiation has been going on for more than two weeks before. The two big bosses no doubt hope to have a conclusion and let them be in turmoil. The club settled down as soon as possible.

"OK!" Andy didn't hesitate. He fully accepted the price, with a slight smile on his face, and stretched out his hand to hold the old hand of Lewis. "Good cooperation, thank you."

"Young man, I hope White Lily blooms in your hands!" Joe Lewis smiled lightly, not at all sad and sorry for selling Tottenham. To his investor who has five teams, Tottenham There is nothing special, it is the most important to bring him huge profits.

Joe Lewis looked back at Levy, who looked ugly, and said, "Levy, sell your five percent stake to Andy."

Everyone's eyes were on Levi's so-called Spurs's so-called hardcore, but Andy's eyes were very indifferent. For the eight percent of the shares that were still outside, he had already thought about the countermeasures and no doubt still passed first. Inject capital to dilute the stock outside, and then squeeze it slowly until it is completely diluted, which is basically the meat on the cutting board. You can do whatever you want.

"Huh!" Levy was not a fool. He was also a financial elite. Naturally, if he still gritted his teeth and insisted, he would face the fate of being crushed into **** by this young man with money.

After hearing Levy's response, the atmosphere of the entire cabin was completely relaxed, except for the time when Andy and Joe Lewis continued to talk about art and yachts, the other two parties immediately began to sort out various contract documents.

It didn't take long for the contract agreement to be sorted out, and on the yacht's living room table, Andy and Lewis had signed Levy.

A smart working assistant, Christina, hurriedly took out the checkbook from her bag and handed it to Andy. He did not pause, turned over the checkbook, held a signature pen, brushed and wrote a check, and tore it skillfully. Come down, set it aside, then write another one and tear it off.

"Two of you, it's yours to see if there are any problems." Andy with a smile on his face, holding a check in each hand to Joe Lewis and Levy.

After the two took the check and looked at the numbers, Joe Lewis took the equity transfer book on the table and handed it to Andy, "Spurs belong to you!"

After celebrating with a bottle of champagne, Andy declined the invitation of Joe Lewis to stay for lunch, with a look of excitement, ruddy David Dunn, and Levy, leaving the luxury yacht, and took their seats. Car, the team drove towards White Hart Lane in North London to receive his team.

"Boss, after receiving the team for a while, I will go to the Premier League committee and make a report. Tomorrow, the committee will hold a press conference after the official news of the transaction is passed. The smile on David Dunn's face was extremely bright, and a pair of eyes exuded a bright light, introducing Andy to the next process.

"Well, what are the arrangements inside the club?" Andy pressed the equity transfer book on tui, and tapped his fingers gently. This is not the first time he has acquired the team. There is not much excitement. After all, the Rockets The team, which he likes very much, has become his own. After the mood was surging back then, the excitement and happiness now are not so strong.

"Sports director David Comoli to manager Franco Bardini may need to replace people in several important positions ..." David Dunn breathed a deep breath, looking at the young boss's face and said .

Andy waved his hand indifferently and asked, "Is there a suitable candidate to take over? I don't want to affect the team's performance because of the turmoil of the club management."

"The replacement candidates are readily available. The teams I formed when I was at Arsenal were all the most senior staff in the industry. Management turmoil and new coaches will have a certain impact. Results in the first half of the season There will be ups and downs. However, I will try to speed up the running of the team as much as possible ... "David Dunn will not say anything nice to the boss in order to please his own boss. He did not tell the truth.

To tell the truth, in addition to the facts and facts, there is the most important point that he must be able to respect the trust of the young big boss. Before, his personnel affairs were not a test of him. I did not expect that the big boss really gave him full The trust and power of this made him more confident, and he would naturally respond to the trust of the boss with sincerity.

"Your confidentiality work is really good. So far no news has been received from Joseph Heynckes as head coach of Tottenham. It seems that you want to make him appear at the press conference."

Hearing the words of the boss, David Dunn said with a light smile: "The previous Tottenham signing was to rely too much on data analysis, to listen to the agent's words and ignore the coach's opinions, and the failure of outsider Baldini is the same as that of former director Komolli. The painful lesson is too great. Only by restoring the coach's right to speak can the team make better progress.

In the future, it may be possible to increase game day income by building new stadiums. From the winter transfer period, the unfavorable situation that needs to sell core players to balance fiscal revenue should be changed. Now the team's youthfulness and localization strategy is in line with my Heincks coaching football philosophy.

Any tactic needs to be performed by energetic and obedient young players, and the strategy of completing tactical intervention through psychological adjustment is also more applicable to young people ... "

Andy listened to David Dunn's indoctrination of football. When he approached the White Hart Lane stadium, he saw an old residential area on the side of the road through the window. He couldn't help but wrinkle slightly. Surrounded by the old building, the team came to the parking lot at the front of the stadium, and Andy frowned even more.

It is narrow, small, crowded, and even the parking lot is so small. There are almost no supporting facilities around the stadium, which is completely a room for no turning and turning, let alone the economy on the day of the game.

The team stopped at the entrance of the stadium, Andy stepped out of the car, and didn't care about the few paparazzi who took good news materials. They took pictures of the good news materials, turned their backs to White Deer Lane, looked around and turned around. Under the leadership of Levy, a group of popular people walked into the office building of the Spurs Club.

From this moment, White Lily, founded in 1882, welcomed its new knight! Andy, who has almost completed the privatization of Tottenham, will also share the glory with Bai Lily!
