Chapter 262: G14 Born in Advance (Part II)

There is no difference from history, after the collective discussion of the eight giants who were automatically selected, it was decided to use G-14EuropeanFootballClubsGrouping as the name of the upcoming strategic alliance of giants, which is G14 for short.

Completely different from the secret G14 inaugural meeting in memory, this time, there were various variables in the giant club summit, which attracted great attention from the news media from the beginning. Paparazzi abound outside the Ajax club for news, causing traffic jams at one point. To this end, Ajax had to send its own club's press officer to divert the attention of the media and hire a security company to maintain order around the headquarters.

Not to mention the turmoil outside, in the conference room of the Ajax headquarters at this time, Van Praag, the chairman of Ajax, who is the host of this boss summit, does not see the loss that Ajax should have when he is excluded from the eight super giants; On the contrary, in his unchanging smile, people see more of the pride and confidence that a European giant should have.

Cut, did not have the training succeeded? I still have a hint of illusions about the revival of Ajax...... Zhuang Mingge, who was sitting outside the round table, muttered disdainfully in his heart, this can't be said, otherwise Florence will be in big trouble.

By the way, I don't know if the Europeans still have a strong Knights of the Round Table plot, at this time there is a large round table in the center of the conference hall, and fourteen unseated chairs are placed around the table, waiting for the birth of the first members of the G14 alliance.

"Delegates, according to the arrangement of today's meeting, the first batch of members of the G14 alliance will be determined in accordance with the shortlisted conditions agreed in the previous managers' summit, which are Inter Milan, AC Milan and Juventus from Serie A; Real Madrid and Barcelona in La Liga; Liverpool and Manchester United clubs in the Premier League; and FC Bayern Munich from Germany! These eight clubs will automatically get their seats in the first cohort of G14 members, and the remaining six places will be voted on by the owners of the above eight clubs to decide whether the team qualifies for the upcoming G14 League! ”

Representatives of other clubs knew before today's meeting that the "shortlisting" of these eight super giants was already a sure thing, and they also knew that under a series of quarrels and compromises at the previous managers' summit, these eight super giants were given almost life-and-death power in the issue of admitting other members. However, Van Praag's zuihou words still moved the hearts of many club bosses who came to the meeting, and they all turned their warm eyes to the owners of the eight giants who had been sitting at the round table with Van Praag's previous speech, hoping to get a direct ticket to enter the top giants league from them.

"Now please be quiet, considering that some clubs did not send representatives to the managers' summit a month ago, I will briefly introduce the shortlisted conditions for the first batch of members." Van Praag, who used to be the reception officer at Ajax, accurately grasped the issues that many delegates were most concerned about at this time.

"The club organization we are going to set up is a strategic alliance of all the best professional football clubs in Europe. The main task of this alliance is to protect the interests of its members in the affairs of European football from other factors, and to strive for a fair and just voice in the future development of European football. ”

"Therefore, as the first members of the G14 Alliance, we have very strict conditions for joining. The first point is the historical condition: such a club must have a long history and have won at least one championship in the history of the three major European cups, and it should also have a record of winning multiple championships in the top league of its home country. ”

Van Praag's so-called "historical conditions" are completely a piece of cake for the eight super giants, but Zhuang Mingge knows that the original requirement for this first historical achievement should have been "winning at least one European Champions Cup", but with the efforts of his little butterfly, the three Italian clubs and Bayern all objected to this condition, and Liverpool and Manchester United always did not deal with each other, so the conditions were relaxed to "have won at least one European Cup".

"The second condition is the reality of the club: a club applying to join the G14 must meet certain standards in terms of financial income, league performance, social influence and other aspects in recent years to be eligible to join the organization...... Specific criteria in this regard are described in great detail in the materials previously circulated to you. ”

Van Praag's second condition has disqualified many clubs that have had a proven track record but are now struggling to qualify for the tournament. Zhuang Mingge heard Boss Mo mention that at the previous managers' summit, it was for this reason that representatives of Serie A and La Liga blocked many Premier League clubs with glorious histories directly out of the door of G14. However, even Ajax, the four-time winner of the European Champions Cup and the host and organiser of the Owners' Summit, did not qualify for the direct qualification, and the British teams who are infinitely nostalgic for their former glory have nothing to say.

"Let's extend our warm congratulations to the eight clubs that have qualified directly into the G14 League! Now the presidents of these eight clubs are invited to exercise their first power! ”

In the warm applause of the surrounding audience, the bosses of the eight clubs collectively stood up and accepted everyone's congratulations. Next, the remaining six members of the G14 alliance will be nominated and voted by secret ballot for the eight super giants!

"We at Manchester United have nominated Ajax from the Netherlands! Although for some reason Ajax did not become a direct member of the G14 League, I don't think anyone thinks that the club that has won the European Cup four times cannot represent our top European giants! The first to speak was Manchester United's chairman Edwards, who was conservative and chose Ajax, who had the best chance of success, and who tried to get closer to the Dutch giants by nominating him.

However, what Edwards said is reasonable, after all, Ajax just beat European hegemon AC Milan last year to win the European Champions Cup, and they are in the limelight for a while, so they have enough capital to enter the G14 league.

Sure enough, Ajax's nomination was supported by the majority of the eight clubs, with several owners expressing their support for Manchester United.

In the end, Ajax, the first to be nominated, won a ticket to the G14 with a vote of 7 in favor and 1 against. In a burst of congratulations and envious applause, Van Praag, the chairman of Ajax, who had not yet sat hot, sat in the ninth place of the central round table with a little excitement.

After Ajax joined, the owners of the remaining seven big clubs began to nominate their preferred clubs (as agreed at the previous managers' summit, each of the eight clubs could nominate a club).

What kind of fate will Zhuang Mingge's Florence usher in?
