There are countermeasures under 621
As the No. 1 agent in world football and the vane of the current European football agent, how can he do such a thing. Soon Manchester City announced that Manchester City and Torres had signed a new four-year contract.
The contents of this contract have not been directly announced, but there are still many well-informed people who have gotten the contents. With Yaya. With Toure's transfer, Torres's salary has also increased significantly, from the original weekly salary of 160,000 pounds to a weekly salary of 220,000 pounds. The meaning is simple, Torres is the current top player for Manchester City. Toure can't overshadow him. Fernando Torres has to earn the highest salary at Manchester City. Don't say that there is no objection from the Manchester City hierarchy, even Manchester City boss Mansour, who likes Torres very much.
Torres has a high goal bonus here in addition to those detailed bonuses. Of course, Torres is eligible for such a high salary from Manchester City, because Torres just arrived in the Premier League last season and won the top scorer in the Premier League. Torres scored 39 goals for Manchester City last season, 28 of them in the Premier League. The second place in the Premier League scoring list is Nicolas Anelka, who has scored only 19 goals.
Torres' performance gave Rist enough confidence to demand a higher salary. In addition to Torres, Thiago. Silva's contract was also finalised quickly.
At the beginning, Thiago. Although Silva's transfer fee is high, the salary is not very high. However last season Thiago. Silva and Kompany have been a brilliant pairing. So Rist asked Manchester City to raise Thiago. Silva's salary, Manchester City did not refuse. Eventually, Rist signed a new five-year contract with Manchester City. Silva's salary went from £80,000 to £130,000.
Although in the current Manchester City, 130,000 pounds is not very high, only in the middle of the table. But for a defender, that's a very high salary. In the current European football world, only Chelsea's John Terry, Manchester United's Rio Ferdinand, Barcelona's Puyol and a few other defenders can compete with Thiago. Silva is on a par.
As the player renewed his contract, Rister's income also skyrocketed. From Yaya. Toure's transfer began, with several players signing new contracts one after another, from which Rist received a share of around £15 million. Several players have signed contracts totalling more than £150 million. Let Rist get enough of the paycheck. Coupled with the broker's commission, Rist is lying down and starting to count the money.
But City's move is not over. On 3 August 2009, Manchester City announced that they had snatched their top scorer Eden from Bundesliga champions VfL Wolfsburg for £26 million. Dzeko.
Dzeko made a name for himself in the Czech league and was the top scorer in Sparta Prague. Then he moved to Wolfsburg in the Bundesliga. He was outstanding at VfL Wolfsburg, scoring 24 goals. This time, it was favored by Manchester City and introduced to Manchester City at a high price.
"Tsk, Manchester City, that's a ......"
For Manchester City's unscrupulous buying of players, many in UEFA are angry. Manchester City have now secured a Champions League spot, does Manchester City really not care about UEFA?
Even Merkley was surprised by City's courage. Real Madrid, Bayern, and Barcelona are all clubs with high incomes, but when they buy people, they will also clean up a lot of players. If you count it all, summer may seem like a lot of money, but it's not that much. The financial situation is not too much of a problem.
But if you look at Manchester City, first of all, they keep raising the salaries of their players. With Manchester City's performance of raising salaries. In Merkley's opinion, Manchester City's salary this season should be able to exceed 30 million euros. Then in the transfer market, two players were brought in as soon as they were made, spending more than 60 million euros. But City didn't blink an eye.
But now Manchester City's income is only much, although there is no specific data yet, but this season should be able to easily exceed 100 million pounds. But £100 million is such a high salary at Manchester City. It's simply not enough to see in the transfer market with such a cost. The fiscal deficit is certain, and it is certainly a large number.
"No way. Whoever made them born rich. ”
Don't panic when you have food in your hands, these local tyrants in the Middle East have oil in their hands, and they are not afraid of the sky. Manchester City is just a façade activity for the Abu Dhabi consortium, let alone investing hundreds of millions, even if they invest billions, they will not care.
"According to the current situation of Manchester City, there is a hole of 100 million pounds in a season. They really didn't take our UEFA seriously. ”
"Barwell. 100 million pounds. If nothing remains the same, £200 million is not a problem. ”
"I don't know how Manchester City are prepared to meet UEFA's financial fair play policy."
Rist smiled and didn't speak. Because everyone in European football will soon understand how Manchester City play everyone. At the same time as bringing in Dzeko, Manchester City announced that they had reached a shirt sponsorship deal with Umbro.
Manchester City's original shirt sponsor was the French sports brand "Big Rooster", but it has expired this year. Manchester City have chosen Umbro as their partner. "Umbro" is a local brand in England and has always sponsored the England national team.
But it's no secret that the two sides reached an agreement back in April. It's just that it's just going to be announced at this time. The partnership between Umbro and Manchester City, Umbro is sponsoring Manchester City with £11 million a year. In fact, it is not low, because the previous "big rooster" sponsored Manchester City only two million pounds a year.
Of course, Manchester City are eligible for such a sponsorship. After all, Manchester City's results in the past two years have improved by leaps and bounds. From the relegation team to the second place in the Premier League, and also entered the Champions League. And according to the current development of Manchester City, it is eligible to compete for the championship in the future. Manchester City's influence has also risen sharply, and cooperating with them at this time is also important for Manchester City's future development.
After signing "Umbro", Manchester City announced a sponsorship that made UEFA laugh and cry, and it was also a sponsorship that shocked the entire European football giants. Emirates United Airlines has announced that it has become Manchester City's number one sponsor with a 10-year, £400 million sponsorship. That's £40 million a year. But everyone knows that Emirates United Airlines is Mansour's younger brother, isn't this bullying?
Therefore, this sponsorship has angered many giants in European football, what are you playing? When are we all fools? Isn't this a typical left-handed money and right-handed money. Therefore, UEFA has been asked to conduct a thorough investigation, and of course it is clubs like Bayern and Arsenal that are particularly motivated.
They are based on the introduction of the concept of "market benchmark prices" in UEFA's Fiscal Fair Play Act. In other words, you can't sponsor indiscriminately. You can't pay for it out of your own pocket, so the concept of "market benchmark price" was introduced. This means that the chiefs are really willing to spend 100 million euros to buy a football from the club, which will only be calculated as a club income of 19.95 euros under UEFA's "market benchmark price" standard. UEFA advertising on the chest. There are clear standards for the supervision of jersey manufacturers' advertisements and jersey prices.
Everyone is questioning Manchester City with this, but the Abu Dhabi consortium is smarter than anyone else. The clever Mansour split the £40 million sponsorship into three parts, £20 million for the chest advertisement, £11 million for the stadium and £9 million for the training ground and academy. The amounts of all three revenues are within the market benchmark price range, and none of them are in violation of UEFA regulations. Because of the neighbor Manchester United as a reference, UEFA is helpless. While the British media was amazed by the 10-year, £400 million sponsorship contract, UEFA could only acquiesce in the legitimacy of the deal.
The Abu Dhabi consortium has done it seamlessly. Originally, with the influence of Manchester City, it was already a high incense to sell millions of pounds for the advertisement on the chest. As for what training ground and academy, which fool will sponsor Manchester City. Even if it is sponsorship, it is to sponsor top giants such as Manchester United and Real Madrid. And now it's even an ordinary wealthy family. It's unlikely that someone will come and sponsor their training ground and academy, and you're a bird's egg.
But that's the way it is at Manchester City. Manchester United can do that, and so can we. I've got money, and I'm willing to play with it. What, you bite me?
And this is the beginning of Manchester City's disgusting European football. Two days later, Manchester City announced another sponsorship. This time, Manchester City is sponsored by a company from the United Arab Emirates, and the previous Emirates Airlines is the company of Mansour's younger brother, and Mansour has a deep relationship. This time, the Emirati company is Etisalat, which is not so close to Mansour. But not so close, but with the status of the Abu Dhabi consortium in the UAE, no one will believe it if it has nothing to do with him.
They are not as outrageous as Emirates United Airlines, but they also sponsor Manchester City for £20 million a year. Etisalat will be the Official Telecom Partner of Manchester City FC in 18 countries around the world, mainly in the Middle East and North Africa region.
Of course, this is also subject to complaints. What club Manchester City has. He was able to get 20 million pounds in sponsorship. Etisalat has been developing in football for a long time, and which giant can get a sponsorship of 20 million pounds a year. One of the cats can be known just by thinking about it.
Seeing Manchester City's one-on-one sponsorship signing, Platini's face was really 10,000 grass and mud horses flying by. Because Manchester City is completely naked, slapping UEFA in the face, slapping Platini in the face.
Look at how long it takes, in a short period of time, Manchester City has won 70 million pounds in commercial revenue. But his mother's Manchester City had less than £40 million a year in business until last season. But Manchester City for a summer. It turned out that Manchester City's commercial income exceeded 100 million pounds, and Manchester City's commercial income is estimated to be about 150 million pounds next season, second only to the sworn rival Manchester United in the Premier League.
And the representatives of Emirates United Airlines are even more bullish. At the signing site, he said that if Manchester City can win the championship, then Emirates United Airlines will increase its sponsorship of Manchester City at any time. That is, in the future, as long as Manchester City needs it. It's not just £40 million a year, it's probably £50 million, £60 million. It's up to City to see what they need.
"Cow."
When he saw Merkley again, Rist saw Merkley's helplessness. UEFA doesn't want to go toe-to-toe with the traditional giants of European football. After all, those giants have been based in European football for many years, and there have been countless famous names in history. Many of these celebrities are still active in world football and are a force to be reckoned with.
As a result, UEFA's so-called "fiscal fair play policy" is more aimed at the nouveau riche. These nouveau riche want history without history, connections without connections, and strength without strength. Except for being rich, it's not a fart in European football. Suppress them, just so that you can kill chickens and show monkeys.
Chelsea have come to be the stuff and Chelsea contributed a lot when FIFA and UEFA disbanded the G14s. Therefore, in the draw of the Champions League, Chelsea was given some concessions. But because Chelsea is a Premier League club, UEFA did not continue to take care of it, but could only continue to suppress it. But now Chelsea have a lot of influence and a lot of quality. Therefore, it can't be done too much, so it is Manchester City that is eyed.
The rich people in the Middle East do have money, but they don't have any strength in European football. And UEFA has always believed that it is simply impossible to pass a "financial fair play policy" with the development of Manchester City. After all, Manchester City's current salary is ridiculously high, and Manchester City's income is simply not erased. When the time comes, punishing Manchester City can also establish UEFA's authority. Unexpectedly, Manchester City directly brought 70 million pounds of commercial income in one summer. And none of them violated UEFA's policy, UEFA knew that it was boring, but it could only stare dryly.
"Barwell, Platini's policy has a lot of loopholes."
"You didn't look at Platini's face this time."
Merkley shook her head. After Platini became the president of UEFA, he did several big things one after another, especially the dissolution of G14 became his biggest political achievement. I didn't expect his "financial fair policy" to be slapped in the face so naked by Manchester City, a local tyrant.
'Manchester City are already in Pot 4 in the Champions League and it will definitely be difficult next season.
"Huh."
Merkley smiled. Manchester City bullied UEFA so much this time, how could UEFA make him feel better. In the Champions League, you will definitely enter the group of death, and even if you come out of the group of death, you will encounter strong teams. UEFA plays you, and it's not minutes that can teach you a lesson.
"City went too far this time."
Hearing Merkley's words, Rist disagreed. Therefore, the "fiscal fairness policy" is inherently very restrictive for up-and-comers. If this policy is fully rolled out, there will never be a successful upstart team like Chelsea and Manchester City again. This policy does not protect the interests of the weak teams, but on the contrary, protects the interests of the giants.
Why can a wealthy family rely on history and rely on the territory laid down by their predecessors to enjoy it easily. And those small and medium-sized clubs will never be able to compete with the giants by virtue of their own strength if they do not have Russian capital and Middle Eastern capital. What seems to be a broken bill is actually the most unfair bill. Manchester City is now using this method to avoid the "financial fair play policy", which is not the way to go.
"This is called a policy at the top, and a countermeasure at the bottom."
