Chapter 646： Red Devils was acquired

After the game in Notts County, the next day, all the media updated the news with the title "League Championship Dust Settled". Notts County laughed until the end in the championship rally with a stable state, although I haven't won the championship trophy, but no one will think that Chelsea has a chance, even if it is only theoretical, even Chelsea fans are embarrassed to mention the word again!

Notts County has created a miracle, a miracle that everyone has to look at. At the beginning of the season, no one is optimistic. In the mid-season, it is extremely difficult. In the end, it ended up with an epic achievement and defending. Premier League champion!

Even if you don’t like Notts County fans, you have to admire it willingly, because Notts County can already be described as great!

Mourinho finally stopped talking because he knew that everything had settled!

And when the league champion has ended in suspense, everyone's eyes have shifted their attention because of an earthquake-like event, making the Notts County champions seem irrelevant.

Red Devils Manchester United was acquired!

Glazer from the United States successfully acquired Manchester United!

The whole world football is shocked, the impact is huge and extensive comparable to the global tsunami!

In fact, as early as 1998, media tycoon Murdoch wanted to buy Manchester United at a high price. However, this acquisition that shocked the football world and the economic field was unanimously opposed by Manchester United fans, the British government, and TV broadcasters. It turned into a bubble, and ultimately failed to make a trip.

And seven years later, Glazer completed this feat.

In October last year, Glazer officially submitted an acquisition motion to the London Stock Exchange through Manchester United insiders, and at the same time applied to enter the acquisition period, Glazer began a crazy plan for 700 million pounds to monopolize Manchester United.

And just today, Glazer’s acquisition company announced that they have successfully acquired the 287% of the shares held by Irishman Manie and McManus, plus the 281% of the shares they had previously, Glazer has already mastered Nearly 57% of Manchester United stocks.

This negotiation only took three days, and they reached an agreement. Since then, Manchester United has officially changed ownership.

But everyone knows that this is not too late. The ultimate goal of Glazer is definitely to control Manchester United's delisting from the stock exchange and become the private property of the Glazer family.

Everyone expected that Graz's acquisition suffered resistance from almost all of England. From all perspectives, they were reluctant to become Manchester United's masters as Americans.

Before Chelsea was acquired, Abu was facing great pressure, but Chelsea's influence and Manchester United are definitely not the same.

And the most unacceptable is the leveraged acquisition method used by Glazer to acquire Manchester United.

Glazer used his very little capital as a basis, and then used the fixed assets of Manchester United as a mortgage from the investment bank of Morgan Bank, and used high interest loans to close to 300 million pounds for acquisition activities. After that, he took a part of Manchester United’s revenue every year. Performing loan repayments is a typical leveraged buyout.

After the acquisition, Manchester United will change from the world's richest club to the world's most indebted club, which is simply a disaster for world football.

According to the usual 7% annual interest rate for commercial loans, Glazer pays 46 million pounds of interest every year, which is equivalent to 126,000 pounds per day.

Although the Manchester United club only needs to bear part of the loans of Americans, Manchester United actually needs to repay only 18.55 million pounds of interest per year, but even so, this will still be a huge burden for Old Trafford in the next few years, and the club has a financial The total profit for the year was only 19.4 million pounds, almost just enough to pay off the debt.

There is no doubt that Glazer came to Manchester United with only one word: money.

Everyone thinks that this rich American has no interest in football at all, nor does he intend to be interested in football like Abu, he just came for money.

Glazer did make money. After the Americans acquired Manchester United’s stock, the price of these stocks soared 13% immediately.

Manchester United fans have previously marched many times to protest against Glazer’s acquisition of Manchester United. As the Premier League draws to a close, a group of fans also called for a boycott of the home game, but all these requests were ignored, and the Americans still took a 59% stake in Manchester United. Put it in his pocket.

Like Abu, Glazer does not understand football; but unlike Abu, Chelsea took out real money to turn Chelsea into a powerful player in the world football, but Glazer did not get the slightest favor from Manchester United fans.

After the official announcement of Glazer’s successful acquisition of most of Manchester United’s shares, Manchester United fans collectively stated that if the Manchester United club will become an American-only club in the future, then they will resolutely boycott Manchester United’s home game. For Glazer, this This is not good news, because ticket income is not a small amount for a club.

The mood of the fans is easy to understand, but who can save Manchester United at this time?

Sorry, no one!

Perhaps there is, that person is Murdoch, a top rich who does not think of Manchester United as a tool for money collection like Glazer, but unfortunately, everyone rejected the Murdoch acquisition a few years ago, so, time There will be no going back, and everything will not come again.

No one can organize Manchester United's century-old giant to become a tool for capitalists.

Perhaps David used to despise the Italian Pozzo family for treating football as an industry But compared to Glazer, it seems that the Pozzo family is a little witch, and there is still some essential between them. difference.

At least on the premise of making money, the Pozo family will have a basic investment in the club and have more long-term planning, but Glazer is even more naked.

Of course, David will not care about Manchester United’s life and death. Although he has the ability to solve Manchester United’s troubles now, he will not do it because in England, as long as he has a club in Notts County, it’s enough. It is to turn Knotts County into the world's top giants.

The Red Devil is dead, maybe you can burn it for burning paper! This is already David's most human approach!

He is not God. He cannot save everyone. Anyone has to take responsibility for the mistakes he made. David has no responsibility, and he has no obligation to pay for Manchester United.

It is estimated that Abu, like David at this time, is watching the development quietly with the lively ideas, but obviously David wants to be in a better mood, because the champion of Notts County has already been determined, but Chelsea has once again Swallowed the bitter fruit of failure in the long season, especially for Abu who invested heavily, such an outcome is definitely not what he hopes to see!
