The temperature inside the room was not low, but Mijatovic felt a hint of coldness. For him, the negotiations of the past few days are meaningless. There was even some schadenfreude in his heart. Anyway, he and Calderón are going to get out, and the G14 will disintegrate to see how Florentino still pretends to be. There is not much affection for Real Madrid, Mijatovic, who is just the club where he has played.

"We are pleased to have been able to reach an agreement."

UEFA Chief Executive Angela Merkley was pleased to announce the results. Blatter and Platini took a step forward this time and gave a big step forward to the giants of G14.

On March 20, 2006, the Belgian club Charleroy took FIFA to court with the support of the G14. It all started in a friendly match in November 2004 when Morocco international Oumos, who played for Charlerois, was seriously injured and had to be suspended for eight months. With the support of the G14, Charleroy took FIFA to court.

Of course, a small Charlerois club, whether it is FIFA or UEFA, can slap him to death. It's a pity that he has the G14 behind him, and there is a giant organization in European football. Although Charleroy is not a member of the G14, the same thing happened to G14 member Lyon, which made the G14 determined to support Charleroy. Lyon's France international Abidal has also demanded compensation from FIFA after he was injured while playing for his country. But they were all rejected.

That's why they are backing Charleroy and demanding 870 million euros from FIFA. It can be said that it does not give FIFA face at all. There is even a lot of media speculation that if this case is heard once it is heard, FIFA and the G14 will completely tear their faces apart.

For this reason, FIFA and UEFA are eager to disband the G14. After Platini hit the G14, he did not take advantage of the victory to continue the suppression. As the saying goes, don't chase after the poor, but Platini knows that if the suppression continues, the G14 is likely to be killed. As a result, the cooperation between FIFA and UEFA has given up some benefits to the G14.

In the past few days of negotiations, the two sides have reached a preliminary agreement. The two FIFA confederations agreed to the G14's proposal to redistribute the share of profits from the World Cup, the European Championship and the UEFA Champions League, with players and clubs participating in these competitions receiving partial financial compensation. Similarly, the G14 also withdrew the lawsuit against the two major associations. It was also agreed to dissolve the G14.

For Platini. It's really a big problem for a henchman. Therefore, UEFA is jubilant, and even the dissolution of the G14 will become a major achievement for Platini. So Platini was on it, smiling at everything in front of him. In a good mood, he and Blatter next to him frequently talked and laughed.

Laporta looked at Mijatovic next to him and sneered in his heart. In the G14, Real Madrid is the well-deserved boss, especially during the Florentino period, Real Madrid relied on the G14. In European football, it's a call for wind and rain. Constantly improving the status of Real Madrid. How strong Florentino was at the time. UEFA's senior officials are all going to concede three points to him. The most glorious time of G14 was also when Florentino was the president of Real Madrid. Now that the G14 has been disbanded, Laporta, who is Real Madrid's arch-rival, can only be happy. In the G14 Barcelona, the voice is not high. It was also suppressed by Real Madrid. Now he's really happy to keep Real Madrid on the.

This is not just Laporta, but also Liverpool and Borussia Dortmund. In G14, Manchester United and Bayern are one of the hegemons, and their favorite thing in G14 is to suppress the giants of the same league. So they have always had a lot of dissatisfaction. This time, the G14 was disbanded so simply, and there were many reasons for the contradictions between these giants.

For clubs like Barcelona, Liverpool, and Borussia Dortmund, with G14 is already making concessions to FIFA and UEFA. Having received enough benefits in the distribution of benefits in the World Cup, European Cup, and Champions League, it doesn't matter at all to them to disband G14. Even they want the G14 to be disbanded.

"This is a special day in the history of football, as the club, the most fundamental element of the football competition and the foundation of its thriving, finally participates in the pyramid of football governing bodies."

After the meeting, Blatter and Platini walked out with smiles on their faces. Blatter said in a high-spirited manner that it was "a day of special significance." ”

Platini said: "In the future, the football governing body will listen to the requests of the club, and the club will be well organized in terms of both institutions and finances. Coalition is not a political tool, but a rational process. ”

After the meeting, only a few of the top leaders of the wealthy families had ugly faces. Including Real Madrid's Mijatovic, Manchester United's David. Gil, Bayern's Hoeness, and Milan's Galliani all had gloomy faces, because they hit the hardest this time. Although they have received enough benefits, they are qualified to bargain with them as long as the G14 exists. But now that G14 has been disbanded, several of their top giants in European football have lost their original prestige.

On the contrary, those who have the strength but are suppressed by the top giants in the G14 are overjoyed. Laporta said with a smile on his face when he faced reporters: "Friendship and trust are the foundation of the game of football, and I congratulate the UEFA president on completing the changes he promised when he took office. It's a win-win for all parties. ”

After speaking, he said even more excitedly: "We feel like we are back in the arms of the European football family. ”

Not only Laporta was excited, but even Arsenal's executive director Edelman made a joke in front of reporters: "Now, it's much easier for us to buy someone from Croatia or Serbia, and we can get the transfer done in a regular meeting with the manager of the other side." ”

After the dissolution of the G14, a new club organization, the European Club Association, was formed. Unlike the G14. The Club Association of Europe has a broad membership that includes the top leagues of all UEFA member states and is officially recognised by UEFA and WF.

And the chairman of Lyon, who helped Platini this time, and the chairman of the G14 this time, Olas, said directly: "We have cleared the obstacles to the establishment of a new management model, which is a necessary sacrifice." ”

…………

"Huh. The G14 has finally been disbanded, and Platini is probably relieved. ”

"An era is over."

Pinny. Zahavi shook his head. For Lister and Pini. For Zahavi, the past few days have not been too sudden. Even the content of the meeting was able to be known by two people in time. But for people on the outside, it's a very big deal. Therefore, many people were shocked to hear the news that the G14 was going to be disbanded. Even many media outlets were taken aback.

The last two days have focused on the news of the dissolution of the G14. There are those who applaud his dissolution, and there are those who are pessimistic. Anyway, there are all kinds of meanings. Everyone discussed Gillette very much.

'Chelsea have made a difference. UEFA will pay off. ”

Rist looked at Pini. Zahavi said with a smile. This time the disbandment of the G14, although Chelsea is only an external force, his contribution is very large. It happened that FIFA and UEFA faced off against G14, and G14 gave G14 a fatal blow in order to counter the important moment of FIFA and UEFA's suppression and expansion. If it wasn't for Chelsea stepping up. On the contrary, it is to actively participate in the expansion of the G14. Clubs like Tottenham, Atletico Madrid, and Bremen will definitely be actively involved when the time comes. There is a real chance that the G14 will succeed in expanding to 40 teams. Once the G14 really includes all the best teams in European football. Then it is really possible to fight against FIFA and UEFA. With such a huge force, FIFA and UEFA will definitely not be able to suppress it directly.

So for Platini and UEFA, Chelsea are an absolute hero. That's the case in this line of work, you owe people a family debt. Then no matter what method is used, it must be paid off, this is a necessary thing.

"Return? It's just one season. Platini and UEFA can't really treat Chelsea as their own. ”

Pinny. Zahavi was calm. While Chelsea have made a big push to dismantle the G14, there are some benefits this season or next. But at the end of the day, Chelsea can't be UEFA's true favourite club. UEFA will not support Chelsea as if they were their own.

"Yes. Not just Chelsea, it's not possible in the Premier League as a whole. ”

Rist also nodded and agreed with Pinny. Zahavi's meaning. This time the disbandment of the G14 has no club that can match the contribution of Chelsea. If Chelsea were clubs in other leagues, they might be the clubs that UEFA would be a priority for the next few years. There would be no Barça's strength.

Unfortunately, Chelsea were the nouveau riche first and then the Premier League club. Entering the 21st century, the Premier League is too strong. You can see it from the Premier League's results in the Champions League. Four and a half seasons have passed since Benitez led Liverpool to the Champions League in the 0304 season, and there have been Premier League teams in each season's Champions League final. This means that there have been Premier League teams in the Champions League finals in the last four seasons, and Premier League teams have won three of them. Last season's Premier League clubs swept three of the top four, and this season's Champions League has all four teams in the round of 16.

And the Premier League is not only strong at the moment, they are also constantly bringing in reinforcements to make themselves stronger. Last season, Manchester City spent more than £80 million, Manchester United spent more than £50 million, Liverpool spent £40 million and Arsenal both spent £30 million. There are simply not a few giants in European football who can spend so much money in a summer.

The strength of the Premier League is already a threat to the interests of UEFA, and if the Premier League continues to be so strong, then the Champions League can be renamed the English FA Cup. When the time comes, it will greatly affect the influence of the Champions League, because when the time comes, who will still watch the Champions League. The Champions League is UEFA's biggest cornucopia, and they will not allow anything to affect the Champions League's success. Therefore, the Premier League is something that UEFA has to fight. If they are so strong now that they change to any league in La Liga or Serie A, UEFA will hit them.

Later, many people said that Platini was Barcelona's godfather and thought that UEFA took care of them. In fact, it is not wrong to say that UEFA is indeed taking care of Barcelona and supporting Barcelona. In some key moments, it will be biased in favor of Barcelona. But the reason is definitely not as rumored in the market, because Barcelona helped the dissolution of the G14. In the dissolution of the G14, Chelsea contributed several times more than Barcelona. Even like Lyon, their credit is definitely far greater than Barcelona's.

One of the reasons why Barcelona is liked by UEFA and supported by Platini is the relationship between Villar, the president of the Spanish Football Federation. Villar's relationship with Real Madrid was not bad, but then the relationship with Real Madrid began to deteriorate. Eventually, Villar was starting to support Barcelona. Villar is a real powerhouse in UEFA, and many even think that he is the UEFA president after Platini. Therefore, Platini's support for the Spanish team is also related to wooing Villar.

The other is that in the current European football world, there are only two teams that can compete with the Premier League. And they are both Spanish giants, Real Madrid and Barcelona. Serie A because of "Phonegate", the giants are already degenerate. Inter's treble in history is just a flashback, and Serie A clubs can at best become cannon fodder for UEFA to stop the Premier League.

Bayern, which should have been strong, is not doing well now. So only Real Madrid and Barcelona remained. Of the two teams, Platini chose Barcelona not because Barcelona is the best. On the contrary, it is because Barcelona is much worse than Real Madrid, and Real Madrid is too strong. In particular, the G14 was able to make such a big climate, which had a lot to do with Florentino, who was strong later. In the process of opposing FIFA and UEFA, Real Madrid has been in the vanguard. In the G14's confrontation with FIFA and UEFA, Real Madrid is the leader and the one who charges. If the current president of Real Madrid is Florentino, it will not be so easy for UEFA to dissolve the G14.

Therefore, in order to suppress the Premier League and establish a new club, UEFA will choose Barcelona. Of course, this is an objective reason, and there are also the promotion of UEFA officials, the contact between the Barcelona management and Platini, and so on. But definitely not because of the dissolution of the G14.

'But we at Chelsea are not afraid. Since 03, we have come to the present in the exclusion of others. ”

Pinny. Zahavi smiled. So far, Chelsea have not benefited much from refereeing. With Platini and UEFA on this occasion, Chelsea have integrated into the current mainstream of European clubs. The first president of the soon-to-be-formed club league was Chelsea CEO Peter Brown. Kenyon is Platini's first return to Chelsea. This would greatly enhance Chelsea's standing in European football.

"The G14 is gone, and Platini's position is secure." (To be continued......)
