Chapter 274: Coventry

"Boss, there's an Indian named Shakru Pandit who wants to see you!" On this day, Brian Richardson had just walked into the office when the secretary reported to him.

Richardson frowned and muttered, "Why does the Indian named Shakru-Pandit sound so familiar?" ”

The secretary reminded on the side: "It is the famous Indian tycoon, the owner of the Ganges Pharmaceutical Factory." ”

"Oh, it's the Indian who is Wilgang, I say how come it sounds so familiar. But what did he come to me for? Richardson suddenly realized.

The secretary shook his head and said, "I don't know about this, he only said that there is something important to look for you." However, with his status, being able to come to Coventry in person must be a big event. ”

"Well, what you said makes sense, then invite him in!" Richardson nodded.

Within a few minutes, Shakru followed the secretary in, and after a while of greeting each other, Richardson asked impatiently, "Mr. Pandit, you said that there is a big matter that you want to talk to me about, but I don't know what it is?" I don't think it's going to be a good time for us to do business. ”

"How could it not be? I want to buy something in your hands. Shakru said with a mysterious smile.

Richardson asked, a little confused, "Well, is it true that Mr. Panditt is the only thing you want to buy that I can sell?" ”

Shakru nodded and said, "That's right, I can only buy such a thing from you in the world, and that is Coventry City Football Club!" ”

"What? Did I hear you right, you said you were going to buy the Coventry Club? Richardson was shocked and simply stood up.

"Yes, you heard me right, I'm going to buy the Coventry Club." Shakru said lightly.

Richardson waved his hand again and again: "Mr. Pandit, I don't think this joke of yours is funny at all, who told you that I was going to sell Coventry?" Knowing that our team is at its best at the moment, we have England's Young Manager of the Year and we have just set a record of 13 games unbeaten in a row, so how could I possibly sell him in that situation? ”

Facing Richardson, who was so excited that he almost roared, Shakru still said unhurriedly: "That's right, you're right. But even that can't hide the embarrassment of the Coventry club's current debt, which I know now has at least £60 million, and Mr. Richardson has more than $20 million in other debts, so I'm really curious what you can do to alleviate that almost £100 million debt? ”

"That's my business, you don't need to worry about it, I won't sell Coventry anyway!" Richardson was still very excited.

"Mr. Richardson, you don't want to be like this, you and I are both businessmen, in business, since you no longer have the strength to bear this debt, then when someone wants to take over and transfer this pressure from you, why should you refuse? Okay, I don't think you're in a good position to continue talking, so let's wait until you're calm down to consider my proposal, and if you change your mind, feel free to come to me. With that, Shakru took his leave and left.

After Shakru left, Richardson said angrily to his secretary, "Do you know what that Indian was talking to me just now? He actually wants to buy Coventry, it's just whimsical, what is Coventry? It's all my dreams and persistence! ”

Unexpectedly, a loyal and conscientious secretary said: "Boss, I think this Indian proposal is actually quite good, you can consider it." ”

"What do you say? Are you also suggesting that I sell Coventry? Richardson said incredulously.

The secretary nodded: "That's right, the club's financial situation is really bad now, up to 60 million pounds in debt, this is not something we have a way to solve at all, no one was willing to take over before, so we can only barely maintain it, now that someone wants to buy it, then why don't we take advantage of the situation to sell him?" In this way, not only can we pass on the debt of 60 million pounds, but also have the start-up capital to enter the most profitable real estate industry today, so wouldn't it kill two birds with one stone? ”

This last sentence touched Richardson, in fact, he has been interested in the real estate industry for a long time, but it is because he does not have enough funds to start, but he is still a little worried: "This is 60 million pounds, can that Indian come up with so much money?" ”

"Boss, have you forgotten what business he is? His Will Gang is a global monopoly, do you think the business of this medicine can be bad? The secretary analyzed.

"Well, that's right, almost all men can't do without this thing, and if this kind of business doesn't make money, it will be a hell. But why is he so bored to buy Coventry? ”

"We don't know about that, maybe he's like the Egyptian Fayyad and wants to build a new Manchester United."

Richardson said disdainfully, "What are you kidding? Which big team can be smashed just by throwing money at it? Of course, Abu had not yet come when he said this.

In fact, there are two reasons why Shaklough values Coventry, one is that this is a Premier League team, Shakloo is really too lazy to rush up from League Two with Fulham like Fayyad, he is here to make money, but he doesn't have so much time; The second is that Coventry is riddled with debt, and as long as he says that he is willing to take over all the debts, then he will not worry about Richardson's impulse.

It turned out that Shaklough's guess was correct, and within a few days Chadson contacted Shakru through his secretary, although he agreed to sell Coventry, but his bid was a lion's mouth, not only requiring Shakru to fully bear Coventry's debt of 60 million pounds, but also had to pay an additional 30 million purchase price, for this unreasonable request, Shakru refused without even thinking about it, and then used practical actions to make a counterattack on Richardson, in fact, what he did was very simple, It's to meet and dine with the presidents of teams like Southampton who are also at the bottom of the Premier League and are riddled with debt.

Feeling the pressure of competition, Richardson had no choice but to agree to Shaklough's request to sell Coventry City Football Club for £10 million.

However, this deal is destined to cause a shocking shock in the entire football world! (To be continued.) )
