Every year at the end of August, the eyes of football fans from all over the world are focused on the Grimaldi Convention Centre in Monaco.

Last year, Gao Han excused himself from participating because Manchester City missed the Champions League, but this year UEFA not only sent an invitation, but also called the invitation in person.

The two first arrived in London, where they met Arsene Wenger and then departed from London for Monaco.

Chelsea boss Lui Scolari is back in Brazil for events this year and will not be able to take part in the draw.

Along the way, the topic of the three has never left football.

With the Gunners fourth in the Premier League last season and Arsene Wenger once again dubbed the Protector of the Four Maniacs, Arsenal have to play a third-round qualifier this season, which is just a piece of cake for Wenger and successfully qualifying for the group stage.

As a result, Manchester United, Arsenal and Chelsea are all seeded teams in Pot 1 of the four Premier League teams this season, which is not a good thing for the other five seeded teams.

The other five teams are Barcelona, Inter Milan, Bayern Munich, Atletico Madrid and AC Milan.

All five teams are also under pressure because according to the league avoidance principle of the group stage draw, Manchester City's group stage opponents will emerge from these five teams, and no one wants to meet Manchester City early in the group stage.

But what's even more terrifying is the second-tier teams, Real Madrid, Lyon, Werder Bremen, Valencia and Marseille are all very good, and whoever is unlucky enough to draw these teams will definitely be devastating.

Or even if it's a little more unlucky...... That could well be the Death Group.

Because of this, before the game, everyone in Europe's major giants was in danger, but only the top three in the Premier League gloated.

For Manchester United, Arsenal and Chelsea, as long as they can avoid Manchester City, it is a good signing.

When the trio arrived at the Grimalti Convention Center, they immediately attracted the attention of many media reporters from all over the world outside the venue, but none of them lingered outside the venue and entered the conference center directly after getting off the bus.

In fact, there is really no need to stay, because they all know the questions of the media reporters, and they must ask about the draw, and Gao Han dodges because he doesn't want to respond to the storm of La Liga boycott head-on.

With the easing of the attitude of the referees' committee, the coaching committee and the players' union, the Spanish Football Federation fell into an isolated predicament, but still resisted, which made the first round of the new season La Liga have to be postponed.

However, now everyone from the government, the Supreme Sports Council and the professional leagues, to the referees, coaches and players, down to the most ordinary fans, blame the greed of the Spanish Football Federation for the boycott, which makes the pressure on the Spanish Football Federation very high, and compromise should be a matter of time.

The professional league has even released cruel words, if the Spanish Football Association insists, it will not rule out starting the game on its own, then the few powers that the Football Association originally held in their hands will be completely deprived, and they will be completely reduced to a chicken rib role, even worse than the FA.

Of course, this move is a draw from the bottom of the kettle, and it will bring a lot of problems, the professional league is just pressuring, and it will definitely not do it unless it is absolutely necessary, but from this you can clearly see the pressure of the Spanish Football Federation.

As soon as Gao Han walked into the convention center, he saw Guardiola, Simeone and Emery at first sight.

They knew on the phone that Gao Han was also coming, so they stood at the entrance to block him.

"Ha, people who don't play in the league are really more idle. ”

As soon as Gao Han saw them, he immediately greeted them with a smile, but there was a burst of ridicule in his mouth.

"The main reason is that you have bigger cards and always come out in the finale. ”

"Isn't it? I couldn't even invite you last year. ”

"No way, people don't play in the Champions League, why are you embarrassed to come?"

The three of them immediately ridiculed each other, and as a result, a group of people burst into laughter as soon as they met, which attracted a lot of sideways glances from the audience.

Either the club bosses, well-known European coaches, or European football celebrities are all the No. 1 people with heads and faces when they go out, but at this moment, seeing the circle next to Gao Han, especially seeing more and more people coming over, I can't help but sigh in my heart.

In just ten years, Gao Han has risen from a nobody to the most influential figure in European football.

Not to mention anything else, among the four teams participating in the Champions League in La Liga this season, Barcelona coach Pep Guardiola is a disciple of Gao Han, Atletico Madrid coach Diego Simeone is Gao Han's former favorite general and strong recommendation, and Valencia coach Unai Emery is also Gao Han's right-hand man in the past, and he has won the essence of Gao Han's tactical concept.

Three of the four giants are deeply affected by the cold, which shows how profound the impact of the cold has on Spanish football.

Not to mention the national team, Aragonés and Bosque have high regard for Gao Han, who still holds the title of technical adviser to the Football Association on his head.

In addition to Spain, Inter Milan in Serie A and Bayern Munich in the Bundesliga are also deeply affected by the cold, and these two teams are now among the top teams in Europe, and their fighting power is amazing.

Therefore, it is not an exaggeration for many media outside to say that the past ten years of European football have been a decade of high cold.

Looking at the venue, almost all the hot top coaches and bigwigs of all clubs have moved closer to the past as soon as they saw Gao Han appear, and Gao Han's influence in European football can be seen.

…………

The draw ceremony and the opening of the awards gala were still presided over by UEFA Secretary General Gianni Infantino.

The bald gentleman is familiar to all fans for presiding over this annual event, and he starts each year with the same detail, detailing the main work of UEFA over the past year, especially the development of the Champions League.

For example, he will always say that the Champions League has added a few countries and regions, or how much the Champions League broadcast fees and team bonuses have increased, etc., which are undoubtedly the concerns of many fans.

From Gianni Infantino's mouth, everyone learned that last season's Champions League prize money reached a new high, with Barcelona winning the crown with a record prize money of 45 million euros, while Manchester United followed closely behind with 42 million euros in second place.

This is undoubtedly quite a surprising palmares.

Ordinary fans often only notice the Premier League's excellent results in generating revenue, but ignore that the Champions League is also constantly generating revenue, although the growth rate is not as high as that of the Premier League, but the pace is more steady and the momentum is also very strong.

What's more, the Champions League is the highest platform in today's professional leagues.

Manchester United was able to take second place in the money table thanks to the fact that English broadcaster Sky TV signed a new broadcast contract with UOUFA much higher than before, which made the prize money for the Premier League, which is divided among the four Champions League teams, also increased.

UEFA's prize money distribution in the Champions League is mainly composed of two parts, one is the market bonus, that is, the income from the Champions League broadcasting rights in the country where the team is located, which is distributed by the participating teams in the country according to the results.

For example, the Premier League's marketing bonus is the broadcast fee from UEFA's sale of the Champions League broadcast rights in England to Sky TV, and the vast majority of the revenue is distributed directly to the four Premier League teams in the form of market bonuses.

Therefore, the higher the cost of selling broadcast rights, the more lucrative the Champions League teams in their country will earn.

Of course, you also have to consider the number of participating teams.

Another part is the participation bonus, that is, the reward for participating in the Champions League, such as appearance fees for the group stage, winning bonuses and draw bonuses, etc.

In fact, in addition to these two parts of the prize money, there is also a significant amount of revenue from race days and sponsors.

Compared with teams that only participate in the league, there are undoubtedly more games to participate in the Champions League, and the Champions League tickets are often the highest sold, and fans and sponsors are also very buying, so these two incomes are also quite amazing.

Based on last season's performance, Liverpool were eliminated from the group stage, but also received a share of 27 million euros in prize money, plus matchday income and sponsor income in the group stage, the total revenue is expected to be close to 40 million euros.

However, this season, the Reds have missed out on the Champions League and suffered heavy losses.

"Truth be told, your Chinatown should be in the Champions League as soon as possible. ”

Infantino spoke at length on stage, and Ferguson whispered to Gao Han from the audience.

Gao Han heard a wry smile, "I said Sizz, it's not kind for you to say this, the front foot just poached Mkhitaryan from me, and the back foot told me that he wanted to compete for the Champions League qualification, are you intentional?"

Guardiola and others, who were sitting next to the two, all covered their mouths and snickered, and even Ferguson himself was a little unbearable.

"I'm just kindly reminding you that the Champions League is the key, and only by entering the Champions League can you retain people, and according to Spanish standards, more than 30 million euros a year, what do you say?"

People go to high places, and water flows to low places, and Gao Han knows this very well.

"Then do you know that we only earn a lot of money on a match day in a year? It's less than a fraction of your Manchester United, and you let me go to the Champions League?" Gao Han almost didn't beat the old man to death, he didn't have a backache when he stood and talked.

"Haha, actually, he meant to say, don't coach in the Premier League, go back and take care of your team. Arsene Wenger smiled and revealed the truth.

Ferguson nodded tacitly at his nemesis, as if to say, "The parents who gave birth to me, and Arsene Wenger who knows me."

'If you stay in the Premier League, we're all out of luck. Ferguson reluctantly admitted.

"I must win a Champions League at Manchester City!" Gao Han said very resolutely.

After hearing this, Ferguson and the others also felt that it was normal, and they felt that Gao Han had promised Mansour to do this.

But only Gao Han knew in his heart that he was trying to complete the task of the champion collector in the coaching system, and he always felt that the reward after completing the task would be very attractive.

And now, with the exception of the Premier League and Ligue 1, he has done it all.

Once the tasks of these two leagues are completed, Gao Han will seriously consider his future, because he has gradually found that with the rapid development of Chinatown, it is difficult for him to juggle both ends of the two ways as before.

Just as everyone was whispering, Infantino on the stage finally ended his tirade.

The award ceremony for the best goalkeeper was first held, and former Spain international Subisareta took the stage to present the award, and the award was won by Cesar, who played for Inter Milan, mainly because the goalkeepers Valdés and Asenjo of the two teams participating in the Champions League final failed to perform satisfactorily, so Cesar won the award.

Cesar and Subisareta also drew eight seeded teams into eight different groups.

The next best defender was followed, and this time Barcelona took the title, with Gerard Pique taking the award, which was presented to former German defender Bremer.

When Pique received the best defender award from Bremmer, he began to enter the draw for Pot 2 teams.
