Chapter 842

At the end of August every year, fans all over the world focus on the Grimaldi Convention Center in Monaco.

Last year, Gao didn't take part in the Champions League because of Manchester City's absence. But this year, UEFA not only sent an invitation letter, but also called the invitation in person. Gao couldn't get rid of it, so he had to promise, along with Manchester United manager Ferguson.

They first arrived in London, joined up with Arsene and then left for Monaco.

Chelsea manager Felipe Scolari is unable to take part in the draw due to his return to Brazil this year.

Along the way, the topic of the three never left football.

As the Gunners were the fourth in the Premier League last season, Arsene Wenger was once again nicknamed as the top four, so this season Arsenal will play the third round of qualifying, which is just a piece of cake for Arsene Arsene to successfully advance to the group stage.

As a result, of the four Premier League teams this season, Manchester United, Arsenal and Chelsea have all entered the first place as seed teams, which is not a good thing for the other five seed teams.

The other five teams are Barcelona, Inter Milan, Bayern Munich, Atletico Madrid and AC Milan.

These five teams also feel pressure, because according to the principle of avoiding the same league in the group draw, the opponents of Manchester City in the group match will appear from these five teams, and no one is willing to meet Manchester City in advance in the group match.

But what is more terrible is that the teams in the second level, such as Real Madrid, Lyon, Werder Bremen, Valencia and Marseille, all have good strength. No matter who is unlucky to draw these teams, it will definitely make people collapse.

Even if it's more unfortunate... It could be the death group.

Also because of this, so before the game, all the big European clubs are in danger, only the top three of the Premier League gloat.

It's a good sign for Manchester United, Arsenal and Chelsea as long as they can avoid Manchester City.

When they arrived at the Grimaldi Conference Center, they immediately attracted the attention of many media reporters from all over the world. However, they did not stay outside the conference center and got off the bus and went directly into the conference center.

As a matter of fact, there is no need to stay, because they all know the questions of the media reporters, and they must ask about the draw, and they avoid the cold because they don't want to respond positively to the disturbance of the La Liga strike.

With the easing of the attitude of the referee committee, the Coaching Committee and the players' Union, the Spanish Football Association has fallen into an isolated predicament, but it is still struggling in the corner, which makes the first round of La Liga in the new season have to be postponed.

However, from the government, the supreme Sports Council and the professional league, to the referees, coaches and players, to the most ordinary fans, all blame the strike on the greed of the Spanish Football Association, which makes the Spanish Football Association under great pressure. Compromise should be a matter of time.

The professional leagues have even issued harsh words. If the Spanish Football Association insists on it again, it will not rule out starting the match on its own. The few powers held by the football association will be completely deprived. From then on, they will be completely reduced to a weak role, even worse than the FA.

Of course, this move is a drastic move, and it will bring many problems. The professional league is only putting pressure on it, and it will not do so as a last resort, but it can clearly see the pressure of the Spanish Football Association.

As soon as Gao Han walked into the conference center, he saw Guardiola, Simone and emery at first sight.

They knew by telephone that the cold was coming, so they stood at the entrance to block him.

"Ha, people who don't play in the league are really more relaxed."

As soon as Gao Han saw them, he immediately welcomed them with a smile, but he made fun of them.

"It's mainly because you're bigger and always come out at the end."

"Isn't it? Last year, I couldn't even invite you. "

"No way, they don't play in the Champions League. What's the point?"

Three people immediately retort, the result of a group of people just met with a roar of laughter, attracted a burst of sideways eyes.

It's either the club boss, the famous European coach, or the famous European football players. They are the number one people with high prestige when they go out. But at this moment, when we see the circle around Gao Han, especially when we see more and more people coming, we can't help feeling.

In a short period of ten years, Gao Han has risen from a nobody to the most influential figure in European football.

Among the four teams participating in the Champions League in La Liga this season, Barcelona coach Guardiola is the disciple of alpine, Atletico Madrid coach Diego Simone is the former favorite and recommended by alpine, Valencia coach unay emery is also the right-hand assistant of Alpine in the past, which is deeply rooted in the essence of Alpine tactics.

Three teams in the four giants are deeply affected by the high cold, which shows how deep the influence of the high cold on Spanish football is.

As for the national team, not to mention, Aragones and Bosque are very proud of the high cold, and the high cold is still hanging the title of technical advisor of the Football Association.

In addition to Spain, Inter Milan in Serie A and Bayern Munich in Bundesliga are also deeply affected by the cold, and these two teams are now among the top teams in Europe with amazing combat effectiveness.

Therefore, many media outside have said that the past decade of European football has been a cold one, which is not too much.

Take a look at the venue, almost all the hot top coaches and all the big men of the club have moved closer to the past as soon as they saw the appearance of high cold. The influence of high cold in European football can be seen.

…………

The draw and the opening ceremony of the award show are still presided over by UEFA Secretary General ivantino.

The bald man is familiar to all fans for hosting this annual event, and his opening every year is exactly the same, which is to introduce in detail the main work of UEFA in the past year, especially the development of the Champions League.

For example, he would say every time that the Champions League has increased the number of countries and regions broadcasting, or the amount of the broadcasting fee and team bonus of the Champions League has increased, which is undoubtedly the concern of many fans.

From ivantino's words, everyone knows that last season's Champions League bonus reached a new high. Barcelona won the championship with a record bonus income of 45 million euros, while Manchester United came second with 42 million euros.

This is undoubtedly a rather surprising report card.

Ordinary fans often only pay attention to the excellent performance of the Premier League in revenue generation, but ignore the continuous revenue generation of the Champions League. Although the growth rate is not as good as that of the Premier League, the pace is more stable and the momentum is also very strong.

More importantly, the Champions League is the highest platform worthy of today's professional league.

The reason why Manchester United can be ranked second in the prize list is that Sky TV, the English broadcaster, has signed a new broadcasting contract with UEFA, which is much higher than before. As a result, the prize money of the Premier League, which has scored four points to participate in the Champions League, has also increased.

UEFA in the Champions League bonus distribution is mainly composed of two parts, one part is the market bonus, that is, the country where the team's Champions League broadcasting rights income composition, by the country's participating teams according to the results of distribution.

For example, the marketing bonus of the Premier League is the broadcasting fee that UEFA sells the broadcasting right of the Champions League in England to Sky TV. The vast majority of the revenue is directly distributed to the four Premier League teams in the form of marketing bonus.

Therefore, the higher the cost of selling the rights, the more revenue the teams in their countries will get.

Of course, we have to consider the number of teams.

There is also a part of the competition bonus, that is, the reward for participating in the Champions League, such as the appearance fee of the group match, the winning bonus, the peace prize and so on.

In fact, in addition to these two parts of the bonus, there is a very important revenue from the competition day and sponsors.

Compared with the teams that only participate in the league, there are more games in the Champions League. Moreover, the tickets of the Champions League are often sold the most, and the fans and sponsors are also very willing to pay for it. Therefore, the two pieces of income are also quite amazing.

According to last season's performance, Liverpool were eliminated from the group stage, but they also received 27 million euros in prize money. Together with the income of the competition day and sponsors in the group stage, the total income is expected to be close to 40 million euros.

But this season, the Reds missed the Champions League and suffered heavy losses.

"To be honest, your Chinatown should fight for the Champions League as soon as possible."

Ivantino made a long speech on stage, while Ferguson whispered to the cold.

Gao Han heard a bitter smile, "I said jazz, it's not kind of you to say that. The front foot just poached him from me, and the back foot told me to fight for the qualification of the Champions League. Do you mean it?"

Sitting beside them, Guardiola and others all covered their mouths and snickered. Even Ferguson himself couldn't hang up.

"I'm just kind enough to remind you that the Champions League is the key. Only by entering the Champions League can we retain people. According to Spanish standards, we can earn more than 30 million euros a year, don't you think?"

People go to higher places and water flows to lower places. The cold weather knows this very well.

"Do you know how much we only earn in one year? Less than a fraction of your Manchester United, you want me to fight for the Champions League? " The cold hardly beat the old man to death. It's easy to stand and talk without backache.

"Ha ha, in fact, what he means is that you should stop coaching in the Premier League and go back to lead your team." Arsene was laughing to reveal the truth.

Ferguson nodded to his arch rival, as if to say that the parents who gave birth to me and the ones who knew me.

"You stay in the Premier League, we have no chance." Ferguson admitted reluctantly.

"I must win a Champions League at Manchester City Gao Han said firmly.

Ferguson and others also feel very normal after listening, straight feel cold is promised Mansour will do so.

But only Gao Han knew that he wanted to complete the task of the champion collector in the coaching system. He always felt that the reward after the task was completed would be very attractive.

Up to now, he has finished everything except the Premier League and the French league.

Once the two leagues are completed, Gao will seriously consider his future, because he has gradually found that with the rapid development of Chinatown, it is difficult for him to give consideration to both sides as before.

While everyone was whispering, ivantino on the stage finally ended his long speech.

The first is the award ceremony of the best goalkeeper. Former Spanish goalkeeper soupisareta came to the stage to present the award, and the winner is Cesar who plays for Inter Milan. This is mainly because the goalkeepers of the two teams who participated in the Champions League final, Valdes and Arsene Ho, failed to have satisfactory stable performance, so Cesar won the award.

And Cesar and suparetta have also drawn eight seeded teams into eight different groups.

The next best way is the best defender. This time, Barcelona took the responsibility. Pique won the award, and the former German defender Bremer gave the award to him.

When Pike received the best defender award from Bremer, he entered the second team draw.
