Chapter 982

Professional football is always very cruel.

It doesn't have the so-called emphasis on participation at all, and its evaluation standard is success or failure.

Such as Barcelona and Guardiola, in front of this evaluation standard, they have to lower their heads.

This past season, for Chinatown, there are both smiles of success and tears of failure.

After experiencing the low ebb at the beginning of the season, the team soon got in place, made great efforts to catch up in the league, returned to the fourth place in the league, and kept the qualification of the Champions League. This basically ensured that Chinatown could reap at least tens of millions of euros from the Champions League next season, which is also a great benefit to the club's finance.

The Champions League reached the semi-final, which was a big surprise. China city not only made its name in European football, but also gave the team full training opportunities. From the head coach to the players, the overall strength improved significantly.

But it also brings a hidden danger, that is, from the head coach to the players, are coveted by many teams.

The result of the king's cup has also improved a lot, entered the final, but was defeated by Barcelona with a great advantage. This game is the biggest blow to China City, and also let the team see the gap between themselves and the top teams.

Gao Han is very confident in his team. With his current team, as long as he has another two or three years of training, he will definitely have the strength to compete with the top giants. He hopes to compete for the La Liga championship. Even if he is in a better state, he may have an impact on the Champions League, but now Chinatown is far from good.

This season's performance has been a high level.

But more importantly, the top teams will not give Chinatown such a chance at all.

At the end of the season, the poacher went into the gate of Chinatown.

"I just asked the finance department to make statistics. The total amount of prize money allocated from UEFA in the Champions League last season amounted to 40 million euros, which is the game bonus plus the TV share

The team was disbanded immediately after the match. Many players had to go to the national team, especially several Spanish international players who had to go back to the national team to prepare for the coming European Cup.

But the club's core management is not good, they have to calculate the past season's revenue and expenditure, but also sum up some problems and lessons of last season.

Coach bochettino also began a holiday, technical director cantarero as the head of the technical department attended the meeting.

At the beginning of the meeting, the general manager Amando Marcos took the lead in disclosing the club's financial balance. Among them, the article "Champions League revenue" was highlighted, which surprised all the participants, including alpine cold.

"So much?"

The cold accident made Amando Marcos happy, nodded with a smile and said: "yes, we have reached the top four. We are the last of the four teams in La Liga, so we have the most prize money."

40 million euro, if put in the past, it is absolutely something that Chinatown can't even think about.

"Unfortunately, although we earn more than Barcelona, Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid in terms of bonus sharing, we are the lowest of the four teams if we take into account the game day income brought by the number of matches in the Champions League. The main reason is that our home income is too small."

The benefits brought by the Champions League are not only the game bonus and TV broadcasting fee, but also the commercial sponsorship income and game day income.

China city got 40 million euros from UEFA, which is really good. It ranks third in European football, even more than Manchester City, because Manchester United got the most points in England's bonus pool.

In terms of business income, Chinatown has been operating very well. Only in terms of income on match day, it is not at the same level as other top Spanish teams, let alone compared with the three giants. Even Sevilla, Valencia and other teams are better than Chinatown.

The income of the match day in the Champions League is also very rich, and the ticket price is higher than that in the league, but China city has a great loss in this area, and this loss will continue until the new stadium is opened.

It can be said that if it wasn't for the commercial sponsorship system that Amando Marcos has painstakingly established in the past two or three years, as well as the annual sale of the team's stars to fill the financial deficit, Chinatown would not be able to support the current lineup.

"Due to the excellent performance in the Champions League this season, I am very pleased to tell you that in the past season, our club has really made ends meet for the first time

Amando Marcos's words immediately made the heads of departments in the whole conference room applaud.

How difficult it is!

How many teams in European football dream of making ends meet, but they can't do it anyway. Chinatown has done it. Although it's only temporary, it's also quite exciting.

"We will officially post it on the official website, twitter and China's microblog tomorrow. I believe it will greatly motivate our supporters and make the players in the team more confident in our management."

Amando Marcos's words once again ushered in a burst of warm applause.

"Of course, it's only temporary. The balance of revenue and expenditure in one season doesn't mean anything. The difficulty is how to maintain a long-term balance of revenue and expenditure. Moreover, our overall salary structure is still low even in La Liga. Therefore, our test has just begun." Amando Marcos said earnestly.

In the past few years, with the continuous influx of external capital and the advent of the information age, European football has ushered in explosive growth, and the financial revenue of each club has also improved by leaps and bounds. However, the consequences are also obvious, that is, stars, as a scarce resource, are becoming more and more valuable, and their salaries are also rising rapidly.

The Premier League is the best in this respect. When the relegated teams in the Premier League can wave tens of millions of pounds of transfer budget, we can imagine how much the value of Premier League players will soar.

In addition, Manchester City, Paris Saint Germain, Malaga and other local giants have increased investment, and Real Madrid, Barcelona, Manchester United and other old giants have to launch an arms race. When the transfer fees of European football players continue to set new records, the salaries of players also continue to set records.

Gao has predicted this situation for a long time, so he has reached an agreement with Amando Marcos early on. He would rather sell the players than keep the salary structure of the club. It can be increased, but not skyrocketed.

The reason is very simple, slow growth is the only way to stay, once the explosive increase in salary, when the team's income fluctuates, the club's finance will face a huge crisis, and once the salary structure rises, it will be difficult to fall down again, so we have to be cautious.

In this regard, including Amando Marcos, all people admire the high cold.

In fact, he is smarter than anyone and sees better than anyone. That's why he can make ends meet in Chinatown this season.

"According to the reliable information we have, Barcelona are planning to renew Messi's contract with an annual salary of 15 million euros, while Manchester City will soon renew their contract with Cristiano Ronaldo, and the Portuguese's salary may reach this amazing figure."

When Amando Marcos said this, his face became very dignified.

"According to our analysis, we absolutely have reason to believe that in the next few years, the wages of European football players will once again usher in a high-speed surge, so we must take measures in advance."

It's not hard to understand.

Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo are the top two superstars in the football world today. If they are compared to the locomotive of stars' salary increase, then when the locomotive keeps going forward, the star array behind will also go forward. Although the increase is not as good as them, the salary increase is inevitable.

Ask, the two superstars up, that Manchester City's Kaka, David Silva, Modric, Sanchez, Benzema, Harvey Alonso and Cech, etc., up or not? Do Barcelona's Ibrahimovic, Xavi, Iniesta, pique and Alves rise again?

If the two teams have increased, then Manchester United, Real Madrid, Chelsea, Atletico Madrid and other teams ace star's annual salary, and increase not?

In a booming environment, Chinatown is hard to be alone.

"Last season, the team renewed their contracts with a number of players in the team, and some players have just joined the team, but the salary increase and contract renewal must be put on the agenda again. For example, Pele, whose annual salary and contract termination fee are low, as well as lakitic, Azar, ISCO and other players, must renew their contracts."

The team performs well and the players shine brilliantly. The result is that they are faced with more poaching.

For example, pelai, when he joined Chinatown a year ago, was worth only one million euros, but now?

After this season's tempering, the Italian center's performance and tactical role have been recognized, and his value has soared 15 times. The evaluation price of a German authority is 15 million euros, while the penalty of Pelle is only 20 million euros, which was very high a year ago, but now it seems that it is very dangerous.

A number of Italian teams, including Juve, AC Milan and Roma, are interested in Pele. If they really want to poach people, are they not willing to pay the 20 million euro penalty?

Of course, none of the three teams has had any contact with Chinatown at present. It's just that the transfer market has let out rumors. Obviously, they are still not sure about Pelle. They are worried that the center who failed to prove himself in Italy is only breaking out once in a season.

But in the transfer market, who dares to say that they will not dig Pele?

What if it happens on the last day of the transfer period?

Even if they don't do it, is it fair to say that Pele didn't give a raise in salary as he did last season?

Without a pay rise, can he continue to play this season next season?

To put it bluntly, players work for the club. They should be paid as much as they can. Otherwise, their enthusiasm will be undermined and their job hopping will be stimulated.

There are many players in the same situation as Pelle, such as obamayan, Azar, lakitic, Isko, kawahar and so on, who are facing the situation of having to increase their salary.

This is one of the consequences of the team's excellent performance last season.

Once it reaches the point where there is no way to go up, it can only sell people.

Of course, there is also a situation, that is, the conditions given by the other party are too rich, Chinatown can not give them at all, it can only bear to sell people.

Barcelona, for example, wants alba.
