679 Dismemberment of Naples?
"Ibrahim and Fernando's salaries can be raised, but they definitely can't be transferred. Rist, we've sold too many people. If you continue to sell players, there is no guarantee of results for next season. ”
There are too many good players at Napoli. And the important thing is that Napoli's players are very young and are all talented players that European football admires. Of course, if Napoli were Chelsea and Manchester City, then it would be impossible for someone to come and poach people.
It's a pity that the salary in Napoli is too low compared to Napoli's good results. There is another club in the current European football world that is in the same situation as him, and that is Borussia Dortmund at the moment. They all have good grades and are talented inside, but they are all very poorly paid.
Not to mention that compared with many giants, even compared with some strong teams, the salary is low. In today's football, it's normal for you to not be able to keep good players because of low salaries. Money? Definitely a big factor. Napoli players are paid too little, and when there is a temptation of money, few can resist it.
When Real Madrid took the lead in introducing Napoli players, the major giants and nouveau riche who were already eyeing Napoli players immediately took action. The fastest shot was Ligue 1's Paris Saint-Germain.
Rafael Benitez is about to become the manager of Paris Saint-Germain, and PSG will certainly need to make some moves. And after a series of operations, Paris Saint-Germain's income has also risen sharply, and it is about to exceed 300 million. Therefore, it doesn't care about spending money.
Paris Saint-Germain started with Ravitch. Ravic has also been very good at Napoli in the past two years, and there are already a number of clubs interested in him. Paris Saint-Germain was a welcome gift to Benitez. It cost 32 million euros to bring in Ravic from Napoli.
At the same time as Ravitch's transfer, Real Madrid continued with his next signings. As recommended by Lister, Real Madrid began to bring in Napoli's centre-back Benatia. Although he is a central defender, Napoli introduced him for nearly 20 million euros, and now he is the best central defender in Serie A, and his value has risen again and again. In the end, Real Madrid spent 34 million euros, and of course, Real Madrid did not spend 34 million euros in real money. Because even if Real Madrid has a lot of money, he has to think about financial balance. Florentino is now becoming more and more shrewd in buying players.
In this deal, Real Madrid put in a player. That is the current substitute central defender of Real Madrid, Albiol, who is valued at 14 million euros. Real Madrid is using Albiol plus 20 million euros. Bought Benatia.
Look at Napoli's selling players. Even Tottenham Hotspur intervened. Speaking of which, the Tottenham Hotspur boss is no richer than the Napoli boss, and De Laurentiis is a world-famous movie tycoon. Napoli are also much better than Tottenham Hotspur now. But Napoli's income is not at all as high as Tottenham's.
Tottenham's income, although not comparable to other Premier League powerhouses, is much better than Napoli. Tottenham did not enter the Champions League, and the revenue is already more than 160 million euros. Once in the Champions League. Breaking through 200 million is easy. And Tottenham just sold Suarez. And began to reach a transfer agreement with Manchester United for Bale. Seventy or eighty million pounds in hand. The last thing that is lacking at the moment is money.
Brendan Rodgers has his eye on Napoli's tall defender Nemanja Matic. Nemanja Matic's salary at Napoli is relatively low, only 1.4 million euros after tax. Tottenham are different, and they are willing to give Matic £2.5 million after tax. That's about three million euros when converted into euros. Even if it is a giant player in Serie A, three million euros after tax is very rare. The salary doubled in one fell swoop. La Liga is not as good as the Premier League, and Serie A is not as good as the Premier League. In the end, Tottenham managed Nemanja Matic for £23 million.
In a short period of time, Napoli has sold Lavic, Sanchez, Benatia, and Matic, and the cash collected alone has exceeded 100 million euros.
Originally, Napoli sold people on such a large scale, and the clubs that were eyeing Napoli players pounced on Napoli like hungry wolves. Napoli's sharpshooter, Serie A sharpshooter Felco, Napoli's core player Afele, and Napoli's midfield core Gago have all been interested in by many clubs.
However, De Laurentiis has money, and those main players can't be retained, but it doesn't mean that other people can't be retained. De Laurentiis is ambitious and is not willing to let all of his main players transfer. He had already thought that a massive increase in salaries would not be affordable for Naples. In this case, the best way is to keep good players in the form of high salaries for a few top players, supplemented by some quality players.
De Laurentiis knows that the only way to make Napoli a giant is to increase Napoli's income. Only in this way can you say no to poaching in the future. Only with a sufficient salary can you refuse to be poached.
"Aurelio, how much can you give Radamel a salary?"
In the Napoli squad, there are several players who have performed very well. However, of the remaining players, Falcao was the best. In each of these two seasons, Falcao has been able to score more than 30 goals for Napoli, a goal rate that is among the best in Serie A, even in European football as a whole.
And as a striker, his salary should also be the highest. Therefore, Riester did not ask how much Napoli gave Afele and Gago, but instead asked how much money he gave Falcao.
Falcao is not a player for Lister, but his image rights are in Lister's hands. It's the same model of cooperation between Rist and these South American stars. Their agents helped them negotiate contracts and transfers, while Rist had a firm grip on image rights to influence their decisions.
"Lister, some time ago because Napoli had just been promoted and the results were getting better and better, the salary system was a little messed up. But now I'm going to set up a four-tier salary system for our club. The top tier of players has an annual salary of around four million euros to five million euros after tax, and I am going to give Radamel an annual salary of five million euros after tax. ”
"Not bad."
Reesette nodded. Five million euros after tax, which is no longer an ordinary annual salary. Don't underestimate the five million euros after tax, only Milan has such a high salary player in Serie A at the moment. Even Inter Milan and Juventus will not arbitrarily offer five million euros after tax. The Premier League, which has a relatively high salary scale, and 5 million euros after tax are all players who enjoy top salaries.
"The players in the first salary range, the club will have two or three players in the future."
"Good idea."
If it weren't for the sale of so many good players, De Laurentiis would never have dared to give Falcao five million euros after tax. Because Falcao wants five million after tax, what should be the salaries of Sanchez, Afelai, and Gago? What should be the salaries of Ravic and Nemanja Matic?
In this circle, it is estimated that there are four or five, or even five or six players who can enter the first salary range. Napoli is beaten to death and cannot afford such a high salary.
"Lister, the players sold a lot, and now I only have money left. You look at our reinforcements? ”
"Don't worry, Aurelio. Since I am a transfer consultant for you, I will definitely introduce you to good players at a good price. ”
De Laurentiis was helpless this time because Napoli couldn't keep the player. But likewise, De Laurentiis trusts Rist more. Because after working with Riester, Napoli's results are very good, and this time the player was also sold for a super high price. Look at the introduction of Sanchez, Nemanja Matic, and Benatia, who made a huge contribution to Napoli, and left a large sum of money before leaving. Therefore, De Laurentiis trusts Rist very much, and the first thing he asked about him when it came to the transfer period.
"Swiss genius Sherdan. Do you know Shaqiri? ”
"Of course. Known as the 'Swiss Messi', he is the most talented player in Switzerland. ”
De Laurentiis was right. Shaqiri is a post-90s player who is only 20 years old this year. But he is already famous in European football and is known as the best wide player in Switzerland.
In fact, in Rist's memory, there is already some vagueness about the post-90s players. Except for the post-90s who became popular before 2013, some of the post-90s who have not yet played do not have deep memories. But now Rist doesn't expect to live by memory. Rist casts his net all over the world, especially in Eastern Europe, Northern Europe, and Central Europe, where there are countless scouting networks. The Czech league is on the rise at the moment, and players from smaller leagues are willing to move to the Czech league in the first step. Shaqiri is one of the highest-rated players in Rist's scouting report.
"And Anthony of Real Sociedad. Griezmann. ”
"He's not easy to bring in."
De Laurentiis nodded. If Shaqiri is still just a talented player, a talented player who has not yet come out of Switzerland, then Anthony . Antoine Griezmann is a rising star in La Liga. There are many clubs interested in him, including some big clubs, who are watching him. But none of them did it, mainly because Griezmann was still too young. Like Shaqiri, he is a post-90s player and is only 20 years old this year.
However, unlike Shaqiri, Shaqiri was considered by Swiss football to be a few days old and grew up under the care of Swiss football. But Griezmann is different, he is not taken seriously in French football, which is why he came to Spanish football. Therefore, Griezmann is very grateful to Real Sociedad.
"Just give enough money. As long as there is money, no one in the Real Society can be sold. ”
"Yes."
Now Napoli has sold so many players, the most on hand is money. If half of these transfer fees are thrown into the transfer market, it is likely to be the most expensive of any Serie A club.
"I'll bring in both of them. Hopefully they will be able to replace Sanchez and Ravitch who are leaving. (To be continued......)
