The club not only restricts the private life of the players, but also the food and beverages are even more strict, there are always patrols during the meal, and the eyes are staring at the players like brass bells, never letting them eat an extra grain of rice, even if they say "sorry", they will not be forgiven.

Football players are also a profession, using their skills to play football for the club, and the club pays them a salary, which is naturally subject to certain constraints.

After shopping around the infrastructure, the group took a sightseeing bus and walked around several open-air courts, and Ed Woodward gave Wu Qian a brief introduction to the personnel situation.

It turns out that there is not only one coach in the whole club, people are generally known as first-team coaches, and the rest also have assistant coaches, fitness coaches, reserve team coaches, youth team coaches, and almost every step will have a separate coach.

Some coaches are also paid a lot of money.

When passing by the gate of the training base, Wu Qian suddenly said: "Avram, there is something I want to talk to you about." ”

"Oh, Wu, please have something to say. ”

Avram's mood gradually improved, and he accompanied Wu Qian to visit the training base, and at the same time, he was also reminiscing about his old days.

Fourteen years have passed since the Glazer family's takeover of Manchester United in 2005, and he has gone from a high-spirited middle-aged man to a middle-aged and elderly man, and Avram is very satisfied when he thinks about the money he has made at Manchester United over the years.

"Under the terms of the deal, both the Carrington training base and Old Trafford stadium will be in my name, right?" Wu asked.

"Haha, naturally it is, it has always been like this. ”

Avram replied casually, then thought about it, and then said: "But the training base and the stadium can't be used for other purposes, but it doesn't matter, the Old Trafford stadium can be rented to singers to hold concerts when there are no games, and it can also be rented to some institutions to hold commercial events, and you can earn a good rent." ”

"The training base can also have additional output when it is used, and Woodward is very good at the specific operation of these things, you can just ask him, haha!"

Avram thought of the nickname of "infrastructure madness" in the country to which Wu Qian belonged, and thought that Wu Qian was even crazier than the Glazer family, and had any special thoughts about the club's real estate, so he simply reminded a few words.

Wu Qian's mind is not on the same channel as Avram at all, he said: "I came in through the gate before, and I felt really shabby, especially compared to Manchester City's training base, Manchester United looked very down. ”

"The facilities in the training base are very old, you see, the barbed wire is rusty. Oh, and of course, the turf and football are still pretty good. ”

"The last time I went to the Old Trafford stadium to watch the game, I found that the stadium was also lacking in maintenance, the walls were broken and not repaired, and some chairs were cracked and not replaced in time, you know, the Old Trafford stadium is another face of the club, which has a lot of negative impact on the overall image of the club......

Wu Qian chattered a lot about the deficiencies in the buildings and facilities, and finally the conversation changed.

"Since the £2,300,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,00

When Wu Qian finished speaking, there was silence in the sightseeing car, only Cooks and David were still looking around like they were all right, especially David, who was excited when he came to the training base, and he wouldn't talk much about business when the boss talked about business.

Ed Woodward squeezed the flesh of his cheeks to his cheekbones with a trademark smile on his face, which looked a little funny, but in fact, he frowned in his heart with an embarrassing stroke, and said secretly, "the bird, the new owner is even more slashing than Avram!"

He feels that he has a long way to go, and he may have to take Manchester United Club down the road of business, but fortunately he is good at it and very enthusiastic.

Rapo Elkann almost didn't laugh out loud, and quickly turned his head to look into the distance, he thought that Wu Qian was simply too interesting, how much it would cost to repair these old buildings and replace the facilities, and it would be enough to survive only a million pounds.

A big deal of more than 2 billion pounds, and actually holding on to 1.8 million and not letting go, is a bit too much......

Erkan still didn't know enough about Wu Qian, otherwise he would have known that the counteroffer was a "very Wu Qian" act.

Avram knew that it was not a good thing when Wu Qian hadn't proposed depreciation fees, he really didn't expect that the other party would find fault with this, he was shameless enough, how could he meet an even more shameless one.

"Oh, Wu, after the Glazer family took over the club, they have renovated the training base and the stadium, and the facilities have been changed several times, you see those expensive lawns, they have to be changed almost every two years, and this time it has only been changed for less than three months......"

Avram was a scheming man, and he enumerated the club's spending on facilities and construction in an attempt to convince Wu to stop raising the issue of depreciation.

After hearing this, Wu Qian shook his head with a smile and said, "Mr. Avram, you see that I have generously taken over the plate when Manchester United Club is in crisis, and you Glazer family should also express it no matter what." ”

"In this way, it is expensive and cumbersome to renovate the stadium and the training base, so you can give way, my birthday is the 22nd, or 2.2 billion pounds, which is a great number. ”

When Avram heard this, he almost didn't fall off the sightseeing car.

Find a few cement workers to repair the stadium and replace some equipment, and dare to ask for 100 million pounds?

This is no longer as simple as the lion's big mouth, it is simply blackmail!

If it weren't for Rapo Erkann stringing through it, Avram would have thought that Wu Qian didn't have the intention of buying the club, but was entertaining him.

Rapo Elkan didn't want to get involved in the conversation between Wu Qian and Avram, but he sensed that the atmosphere was a little wrong, Afram was about to go through menopause, and his ability to control his emotions was not as good as when he was younger, and he had to step up and be a peacemaker.

"Wu, you may not know about the labor and material costs in Europe, and it doesn't cost so much to repair the main body and replace the equipment. Avram, I think Wu has some truth in what he said, you can find a way to solve it. ”

Avram looked at Rapo Elkann and suppressed the anger in his heart.

Wu ...... 2.2 billion pounds is absolutely impossible!"

Avram first rejected Wu Qian's proposal, then thought about Rabo's words for a while, and said, "But since you mentioned these problems, let me pay for the renovation and replacement of some equipment, what do you think?"

Avram made the final concession, repairing the stadium and training base, replacing a number of new facilities, and spending a total of 700,000-800,000 pounds, which is the bottom line under his bottom line.
