Chapter 1339： Acquisition

It is still rainy this morning, which makes many people feel very depressed.

格雷 In the Manchester United club boss's office, Glazer and Woodward are sitting inside and discussing something.

老板 "Boss, do they really want to buy half of our shares?" Woodward asked.

Glazer nodded: "I let out the wind last night, ready to sell half of the shares in my hand. I didn't expect them to contact me early in the morning, saying that they would come to discuss this matter with me this morning."

Woodward sighed: "Unexpectedly, times have changed, Jintaige's Devil Sports has become the world's first sports brand, it is really amazing."

"I still have 50% of the shares in my hand, with a total value of 2.5 billion euros. Even if I am going to sell half this time, they have to pay 1.25 billion euros, and I ask that they must be cash! Hesitant agreed, it was a generous shot. I didn't expect the kid who once worked for me to laugh at hundreds of billions of self, which is dozens of times more than me, it is really unpleasant! "Glazer's face was a bit disgusting.

Woodward comforted: "Boss, this time you sold half of the shares, and you are still one of the two major shareholders with Jin Taige, he can not suppress you."

Glaser snorted: "I know, but I'm just upset! Thinking back when my father bought Manchester United, he bought 75% of the shares in one go! You know, as long as we hold more than 75% of the shares, we can ask Manchester United withdraws from the London Stock Exchange, and Manchester United has gone from collective ownership to the private property of our Glazer family. "

"But it didn't occur that decades later, Manchester United actually returned to collective ownership, and that 50% of the shares have been dispersed to many companies around the world. If today's transaction is successful, then Jintaige and I will become the largest Of the two controlling shareholders, but we only have the right to vote and no decision. "

Glazer is right in saying that after the old Glazer acquired 75% of Manchester United's shares, they were eligible to make Manchester United a "private property", which could adjust the personnel structure of the club and even change the board of directors of the club. It's all up to the Glazer family!

At that time, in order to complete the acquisition, the old Glazer borrowed 300 million euros from Morgan Bank. In the next few years, in order to repay the debt, they took away the money that Manchester United earned, not only repaying the debt, but also investing in American companies, but Little investment in Manchester United!

It is this practice of borrowing chickens and eggs that has made the Glazer family a target of criticism. They have been opposed by many Manchester United fans and even directly led to Sir Alex Ferguson's early retirement.

However, after Gintag took office, his series of methods brought Manchester United back on track. The Glazer family also appropriately increased some investments in order to ease the situation. They once spent a honeymoon period with Gintag and Manchester United fans. .

But over time, the Glazer family's American company was in trouble, and they began to substantially reduce Manchester United's various investments, including transfer funds.

Relying on Jintaige's super-powered wrist, although still maintaining the advantage in the Premier League, in the Champions League game, facing Real Madrid, Barcelona, ​​Paris and other teams that have continuously invested heavily, Manchester United have gradually declined and have not scored in consecutive years. After the Champions League semi-finals ...

It was for this reason that Ginger finally fell out with Glazer and chose to retire. Glazer didn't stay at all.

Unexpectedly, three years later, Kingtag returned to England with a large amount of money and made a decision to buy Manchester United stock.

I watched the former associates who had a bad relationship with him and become a person who was on an equal footing with him. Of course, Glazer was very unhappy.

约 When Yote, the business director of Devil Sports, came to Glazer's office, Glazer was also displeased: "Do you want to buy my shares?"

The appointment characteristics nodded: "Yes. Since Mr. Glazer made a statement yesterday, we have been prepared. I am here today not to discuss with you, but to directly sign the equity transfer contract."

Grazer snorted: "You have a clean style of doing things, just like that guy."

Yoyte took out a prepared contract and handed it to Glazer: "If it's appropriate, let's sign it."

Looking at Yotte's sloppy behavior, Woodward, who was sitting aside, suddenly remembered many things.

That was when I first met Jin Taige decades ago. He was still very young at that time, and just took over Manchester United as the head coach. At that time he pulled out a transfer list with 15 players on it, and he wanted to talk to them in person and sign them.

During the transfer negotiation, Woodward and Kintag traveled to many countries. Kintag personally, can get a transfer on average in half a day, and the efficiency is amazing.

Alisson, Eric Bailey, Anthony Marshall, Dembele, Benjamin Mendy, Dele Ali, Ngolo Kanter, Kimihi, Mahrez, Marcos Aron Suo, Asensio, Nubuat Keita, Leroy Sané, Virgil van Dyck ...

Jin Taige said at that time ~ www.novelhall.com ~ The total value of these players can exceed one billion! You know, they only spent more than 30 million euros!

Woodward couldn't do it at that time, but five years later, when these players became the core of the Seven Crowns, he knew that the total value of these players had already exceeded one billion!

Later Woodward and Kingtag worked together for many years and reached many commendable transfers, which makes Woodward look back on now, and they are very proud.

金 When Kintag was leaving, Woodward was very reluctant, but he knew that the conflict between Kintag and Grazer couldn't be reconciled, and he had to stand beside Grazer. Therefore, he could not help but watch Jin Taige leave.

I did not expect that Ginger Taege is now back, and like Glazer, will become Manchester United's largest controlling shareholder, it is really moving.

Grazer held the contract in his hand, he examined it carefully, but when he saw the last, he suddenly caught it!

Glazer raised his head to look at Yotte, his eyes were like a torch: "Young man, haven't you figured out the content of this transaction?"

Jyotte answered very frankly: "Of course we know, Mr. Glazer, you are ready to sell 25% of Manchester United, the price is 1.25 billion euros, and you need cash."

Glazer nodded, pointing to the contract in his hand: "You're right, but the content of this contract is not the same as what I said? Can you explain it to me, what is the situation? "
