In fact, Parma’s current problem is very obvious, that is, the milk corps has made a lot of signings for many years after it was promoted to Serie A, so that the total salary of the team is obviously beyond the club’s capacity.
In the original history, Parmalat was not very generous in terms of transfer, but they could still spare some money to wipe out Parma’s debt. After all, the player’s salary was not as exaggerated as it was later. In 1999, Littmannin joined Barcelona and got a salary of 5 million dollars, which was even worse. Now it is 1997.
However, it was hard to drag Parma out of Parmalat Banner. Naturally, it is impossible for Piero Della Francesca to accept the capital injection from Parmalat, so she can find a way to cut the club expenses. The first thing to do is the salaries of the players.
Come on, if Palma wants to cut the total salary smoothly, there are two ways to go
One is that high-paid players agree to pay cuts and stay in the team. However, in the environment where players’ salaries are generally rising, this is obviously unrealistic. Players are also young people. Unless they are veterans who have lost their main force and have deep feelings for Parma, who will agree to pay cuts?
The other is to sell all the players who get high salaries in the team. This can not only effectively reduce the total salary, but also get a large transfer to Palma, which can be used to re-introduce a group of good seedlings for training, and then sell them for money after they have achieved results, thus forming a virtuous circle.
However, it is also very risky to do so. After all, being able to get a high salary in the team is the lowest and the rotation level of the main players. If selling too many main players causes Parma’s season results to slip rapidly, it will not be worth the loss. You know that Parma can participate in the European Champions League and make the team reach the post-knockout stage, but the profit is quite rich
Piero Della Francesca hopes that Parma can make a steady transition from a money-burning machine to a black shop. She doesn’t want to see the team save money and turn it into a mid-stream relegation club. Even if she wants to be a black shop, she can’t be a black shop. Who will pay a lot of money to buy your player without performance guarantee?
In Zhuangge, Piero Della Francesca was helped to find the third way to solve the club’s financial problems.
Do you still remember the Japanese Football Association, which is trying to get its players into the top leagues in Europe? In Zhuangge matchmaking, he is sponsoring Piero Della Francesca to Palmara all over the world and is eager to send a group of national hope stars to the top leagues for tempering. Chuanyuan Saburo hit it off. After some bargaining, Parma finally announced that 10,000 US dollars would be introduced to Japanese midfielder nakata hidetoshi from Southern Hunan Sea Club at a low price.
From a competitive point of view, Parma’s introduction of nakata hidetoshi is not worth the loss. Ancelotti already has Croatian midfielder Stanic and spends a non-European quota to introduce overlapping positions. nakata hidetoshi’s theory has some resource waves in any case.
Although Parma did make a bad transfer from a purely competitive point of view, Parma got a very rich reward in terms of commercial development. After signing nakata hidetoshi, a large number of Japanese companies rushed to this small town in northern Italy and expressed their willingness to sign various commercial sponsorships with Parma Club.
Piero Della Francesca, a Japanese company that took the initiative to send the door to be slaughtered, was directly stunned by this big pie and quickly signed a lot of sponsorship contracts with these companies that she thought were "stupid and rich"
Toyota bought jerseys for $15 million in three years, and Sony bid for $10 million in five years to get the title of producer … And the billboard of Tardini Stadium was swept away by many Japanese companies at a price higher than the market price.
With such a large amount of sponsorship injected into the club, Piero Della Francesca can finally catch his breath.
Zhuang Ge has not been idle. Although for some well-known reasons, he is unwilling to introduce Japanese players from the bottom of his heart, but he will not have a hard time with money, so he signed a contract with the Japanese Football Association.
This agreement is roughly that the Japanese Football Association can send outstanding Chinese players to Florence in the next five years to participate in short-term training for a period ranging from three months to half a year. The training period is directly proportional to one million US dollars. If you want to stay in Florence for half a year, the Japanese Football Association will have to pay two million US dollars for each player’s training.
It is kenyon’s suggestion to reduce the training. Because Florence’s achievements have risen rapidly in recent years, the commercial value has also risen. Therefore, hosting many commercial sponsorship contracts of the club in kenyon, if the price of training players is too high, then the Japanese company may give up sponsoring Florence. This is a situation that kenyon does not want to see.
It is king to make a quick profit and a long stream of water.
The Japanese Football Association also unequivocally immediately sent shunsuke nakamura, who had performed well in Florence for half a year, back to Viola, intending to let him continue his studies in this giant, so as to stay in Europe instead of waiting for the training to return home in despair.
Although there is a rule in Serie A that trial players are not allowed to participate in official competitions, there is no such rule in the youth league. shunsuke nakamura, they are fully qualified to play in the youth league in Florence and are now adapting to the rhythm of the European league.
Other Serie A teams are drooling over the generosity of Japanese companies, but now they can’t intervene in the first shot. Parma has eaten all the meat in the pot and the leftover soup has been wrapped up by Florence.
People’s daily financial resources are also limited, and they have no plans to continue burning money after taking out a lot of real money to feed Parma and Florence.
The Serie A clubs can watch this delicious meal being divided up by Parma and Florence, and then hide under the covers and feel sorry for themselves.
Chapter 57 Union Meeting (1)
Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, it’s professional league meeting day.
Although the announcement of the meeting was made by Piero Della Francesca Tanzi, the executive chairman of the League, the meeting was called at the headquarters in Florence. After all, the root cause of the meeting was initiated by Zhuang Ge, the president of Florence, so Florence naturally became the venue of the sub-professional league meeting.
In a high-end conference room in Florence headquarters, the owners or general managers of ten Serie A teams from all over the country gathered together to wait for the official meeting.
Why not all the bosses are here? This is mainly because many bosses actually don’t know the football industry thoroughly, and they are more in the form of investors. Therefore, these people are quite conscious and don’t have to attend this kind of meeting, but hand over the benefits to the general manager of a more professional team. For example, AC Milan boss Berlusconi did not show up but sent his right-hand man Galliani to attend the meeting.
Of course, there are also unconscious people, such as Mr Massimo Moratti, the chairman of a fan who is in front of Zhuang Ge.
"Don’t sell it to us, Antonio. Tell us what you have to say. We are all listening." Moratti was still in a hurry to ask Zhuang Ge about the purpose of calling this meeting after just being quiet for a few minutes in the conference room.
"Well, since Massimo said so, I won’t turn around. Now I declare the temporary meeting of the professional league official!" Zhuang Ge smiled and nodded to Moratti to calm the mood of the other side. Finally, the theme of the meeting was "First of all, let’s discuss the first topic. I want to ask all of you here if you think our Serie A transfer system is a bit unreasonable?"
"Everyone knows that since the Bosman Act was implemented two years ago, the Football Association has made some changes to the foreign aid system in the league according to this act, stipulating that each Serie A team is allowed to introduce a non-EU player every season." Seeing that everyone in the meeting room has set their eyes on themselves, he gave a speech. "From the perspective of protecting local players, the Football Association’s practice is understandable … but I think it is time for this system to be changed!"
"Because the Bosman Act has impacted the Football Association’s stipulation that the transfer system can prevent a large number of players with non-EU nationality from flowing into Serie A, it can fundamentally prevent high-level players from other EU countries from flowing into the League! Therefore, these Football Association officials’ so-called policy of protecting the growth of local rookies has not played its due role! "
"Not only that, but this policy has also seriously hindered the way for our Serie A clubs to strengthen their strength!" Speaking of which, Zhuang Ge once again strengthened his tone. "Take Massimo as an example. If you sell Kanu and Sati, two non-European players, abroad this summer due to some force majeure, but when you want to replace them, because the Football Association has formulated this policy, you can find a suitable candidate in the EU. Isn’t this just increasing the difficulty for our teams to strengthen their strength? ！”
Zhuang Ge’s remarks immediately set off a heated discussion among all the people.
"Yes Antonio, he’s right!" The first one who supported Zhuang Ge was naturally a great boss who had always been good with him and had just been named. "I took a fancy to a lot of very good players this year, but because the Football Association stipulated that a non-EU player could be introduced every year, I was always hesitant to choose which player."
"I agree with President Corleone!" Although a defender like Starr was abducted by Zhuang Ge a few years ago, Lazio boss cragnotti was magnanimous enough. He didn’t feel hostile to Florence and Zhuang Ge because of this transfer. He also came out to help Zhuang Ge. "I won’t talk about it far away. For example, this summer I took a fancy to two Argentine players, Almeida and Simone. As a result, due to this cheating policy, Lazio can buy Almeida, but I have the heart to Simone."
"hey! Why did you also watch Diego (Simone)? That’s our inter Milan goal! " Unexpected things happened. Just after cragnotti’s words were finished, it caused a great boss surprise. "Don’t be like this! You are robbing naked! "
"Yeah, President Moratti, your words are really interesting. Has anyone stipulated that a player can’t be watched by several teams at the same time?" Cragnotti glanced disdainfully at Moratti, and his eyes were full of contempt. "You are making a fuss. You have been the chairman for several years. Surely it must be very hard for you to work for Inter Milan?" Try to wipe your boss’s ass every day. "
You!’ Although he comes from a business family, honest and frank Moratti’s personality is the most unbearable, especially in football. Moratti is a complete fan and belongs to the kind of "Chairman cragnotti! Then let’s see who is more attractive to Simone! What if the loser has to admit his failure in the newspaper? "
"good! Who is afraid of who! " Cragnotti is also a big boss who is not afraid of things, otherwise he would not have spent a lot of money on the transfer market in Lazio just before the foundation of success in the market was laid down. "With the current performance of Inter Milan, Simone really can’t see your team!"
"Then it’s a deal!" Moratti was shocked by the other side and said, "I can’t believe it. It’s a joke that Inter Milan can’t beat you."
Two people beat the table in the conference room for a long time before being persuaded by Galliani and old Bozo, two peacemakers, to sit at both ends of the conference table and stare at each other with bull’s-eye panting.
Everyone else here looked at the two men who were quarrelling and said, are these two bosses really so casual about the signing goal of the clown team that they can disclose it to the public?
Besides, now both Inter Milla and Lazio have spent the only non-European places. In case someone is wicked now, they will get ahead of you after the meeting and buy Simone from Atletico Madrid this year. Where will you cry when you see it?
Chapter 5 Alliance Meeting (2)
"Okay, okay, please solve the Simone problem by yourselves after this meeting." At this time, Gianni Agnelli spoke. Although he had given the position of Juventus president to his brother umberto Agnelli, this time the old man wanted to attend the meeting in person, and naturally no one in Juventus and Agnelli family dared to go against his opinion. "Now let’s get back to the point. I am a 75-year-old man. I can’t stand it if you make so much noise again."
Agnelli’s family is known as Gianni Agnelli, the leader of Italian Crown King’s family. As soon as this master spoke, Moratti and cragnotti were honest at once. Although they hated Juventus, they didn’t dare to expect anything in front of this respected old man.
"Well, it’s finally quiet." Gianni Agnelli patted her seat with satisfaction and turned to Zhuang Ge and said, "Antonio, since you have seen the shortcomings of this signing restriction, you must have a solution?"
