Chapter 530: The Familiar Recipe Again (1/5)
After some conspiracy, Zhang Yida and Li Hengbo flew to Milan the next day to announce that Yan Huang Investment (Hong Kong) would replace Temasek's hedge fund as the controlling shareholder of AC Milan.
At the same time, Temasek will continue to retain a stake in the club as a financial investor.
As soon as the news came out, the citizens of Milan, the capital of design, were not calm again.
Fans of rivals Inter laughed at AC Milan supporters: "Wash and sleep, AC Milan has not had a chance to turn over in recent years."
The owner of Singapore only took over a few times, and then sold the club again, which is obviously a hot potato, and no one wants it.
AC Milan fans are worried, this is sold and sold, the club is so turbulent, there are ghosts who can do well!
Several radical fan groups felt that this could not be done and that something had to be done for the team.
Just as they were preparing to act, the authoritative media "Milan Sports Newspaper" spoke out.
"In the last month, our Rossoneri have suffered a major setback and the future is uncertain.
One of the pride of Milan, the Rossoneri have a 119-year history and have won 18 Serie A titles and seven Champions League titles......
It is no exaggeration to say that this is one of the greatest teams in Italy and Europe!
Watching the team sink like this, as a Juventus fan, I can't stand it.
However, the good news is that Yan Huang Investment Group from Hong Kong has decided to take over AC Milan.
The actual controller of this group is Mr. Yida Zhang, the richest man in Asia and the founder of the $200 billion technology company Ruixiang!
This gentleman has a lot of fate with Italy, and his English name is very similar to the name of our Italian Chinese......
Congratulations to AC Milan fans, your club is now one of the richest clubs in Europe, and can even compete with Manchester City and Paris.
In addition, Mr. Zhang is a man of miracles, and I hope AC Milan can return to the top under his leadership!"
Zhang Yida is also now a person who owns Wikipedia, which has a lot of Western media reports on him and the introduction of his industry.
After AC Milan fans checked the information, they can almost be described as crying with joy and running to tell each other.
"He's coming, and the Chinese super-rich are coming towards us with green euros!"
The fans sighed, looking forward to the stars and the moon, and finally looked forward to the big savior.
Although the previous chairman of the club, Brother Li, failed in speculation and went out of the game, his willfulness and boldness in spending money still left a deep impression on their fans.
Now there is a rich man who is worth more than 100 times Brother Li, and the picture is so beautiful that I can't think about it!
Dig Ronaldo, dig Messi, dig Neymar, dig Mbappe...... Formation of AC Milan's Galactic Battleship.
Reasonable fans poured cold water on it, "Wake up! Because of the Financial Fair Play Act, don't think about bringing in big reinforcements." Let's deal with the current UEFA penalty first!"
Being reminded like this, fans who fell into beautiful fantasies were pulled back to reality.
Also, there is no European war to fight, what kind of revival is there to talk about?
Look at the means of the new Chinese boss!
......
Accompanied by the club's management, Zhang Yida visited the stadium, training room and honor memorial hall of AC Milan......
Zhang Yida looked at the memorial hall with dozens of trophies on display, and sighed secretly: There is indeed a heritage, and there are so many trophies that I can't put it down.
Then look at the frames of the meritorious players hanging on the wall, Kaka, Shevchenko, Van Basten...... Each of them has achieved great things in their own time.
It's just that the times are different, Milan wants to return to the peak of the year, and there is still a long way to go!
A middle-aged man with a beard and a fierce face followed behind Zhang Yida, and was introducing Zhang Yida to AC Milan's championship trophies and meritorious players.
This is the current head coach Gattuso, who is notoriously short-tempered in world football.
When he was a player, he used to "lock his throat and silver fox Lippi" and "slap Ibrahimovic".
The year before last, he was in charge of Pisa, a team in Italy's third division, and when playing against the league leaders, Gattuso once slapped the assistant coach in full view because of his nervousness, and his actions were very rough.
Because of this incident, Gattuso was also criticized by fans and the media after the game, but he didn't change much after that, and he still couldn't control his bad temper.
Zhang Yida couldn't believe why Milan chose such a person to be the head coach.
Can a person who can't even effectively control his emotions lead a team?
Gattuso is 40 years old, only a few years after retiring as a player, and according to his seniority and experience, he can only coach in the lower leagues.
But this guy is also one of Milan's famous names, contributing to Milan, having helped Milan win the Champions League twice as a player in '03 and '07.
Because of his tireless running and ferocious tackles on the court, he also earned him the nickname "Oars Dog".
Although this violent temper behaved respectfully, humbly and politely in front of Zhang Yida, Zhang Yida did not plan to renew his contract.
Temper tantrums are secondary, and the most important thing is ability.
Capable people can tolerate some of his other flaws, and the most annoying thing is people who are incapable and have a big temper.
Spending money on a coach is to make the team's results better, not to let them be bastards.
......
After inspecting the Milan club, Zhang Yida quickly made a major change in management.
Former Arsenal CEO Ivan Gazidis has been poached to replace the current Milan CEO Fasoone.
Louis van Gaal, who has been at home, has also been brought in as Milan's new manager.
This boss is a world-class coach, and his biggest characteristics are "coaching with an iron fist" and "good at cultivating newcomers".
He has coached giants such as Barcelona, Bayern Munich, Manchester United, and the Dutch national team.
Especially during his time at Bayern, the 4231 tactics he created for the team were of great use to Bayern and even the German national team.
His successor, Heynckes, used the team and tactics he left behind to make Bayern win the Champions League;
Loew was inspired by his tactics, and that year the German team swept away England and Argentina to win the third place in the World Cup;
Four years later, in the 14th World Cup, the German national team was still using the 4231 formation and won the World Cup championship in the curtain year.
However, Van Gaal is too arrogant and often has conflicts with the media, leading to mixed reviews from all walks of life.
In addition, he is a reformer who has the courage to innovate, does not believe in big names, and is firm in his position.
Known as the founder of the dynasty!
Zhang Yida is a little worried about whether he will have any conflicts with Ronaldo, which is really tricky.
On the one hand, it is necessary to use Ronaldo's fame to rebuild Milan's popularity and brand, but Ronaldo can't play for a few years.
In the long run, Van Gaal needs to dig out and develop a group of new stars for Milan.
The new star is the most valuable, and it can also slowly increase the valuation of the Milan club.
Gattuso did not leave after leaving the coaching position.
You may have realised your lack of ability, or felt that AC Milan had a promising future, and took the initiative to apply for the position of assistant coach.
Zhang Yida originally wanted him to go directly, but after thinking about it, it was just a teaching assistant position, and it didn't matter.
If Gattuso is just kicked away, it may break the hearts of those club celebrities.
These people have no other skills, and after retiring, they like to comment on this and that in front of the media.
Although it can't be good, Zhang Yida, as a Chinese boss, really doesn't need to be too extraneous when he is a newcomer.
Unite all the forces that can be united!
......
Spain's Real Madrid Club announced on the 10th local time that its star Ronaldo had paid 120 million euros in liquidated damages and officially transferred to Serie A giants AC Milan as a free agent.
The news is out, and the whole world is watching!
People with flexible brains smell a hint of a different smell, this familiar recipe is similar to Neymar's joining Grand Paris back then.
Just when the outside world questioned whether the transfer violated the Financial Fair Play Act, AC Milan fans were caught in a sea of joy!
The local pubs are all full, and it's as fun as Christmas!
