Chapter 497 Satellite Club System (3)

"Uh, let me think about it...... My personal suggestion is that if we are developing satellite clubs in the five major leagues, we should first consider those teams that have a tradition of developing young players but are financially weak, so that we at Fiorentina can control them. As for the leagues of other small and medium-sized countries, you can choose more of those well-known strong teams, due to the different levels of the league and the popularity, in terms of the attractiveness of players, these teams are far inferior to our Fiorentina. Antonioni replied to the question raised by his boss after a little consideration, "In France, Monaco, which has signed a commissioned training agreement with us, is quite good, and I believe that the Monaco club is very willing to make another financial income; On the Belgian side, I personally think Anderlecht is more suitable for this role, and if the opponent is not willing to become our satellite team, the standard clubs of Liege and Brugge are also good choices in Belgium, which are slightly less famous than Anderlecht; In Portugal, the traditional top three of Benfica, Sporting Lisbon and Porto fit our boxes and we can talk to all three clubs and choose the best among them. ”

"Well, what about Spain and Germany? Just now you also talked about the benefits of these two countries, why don't you mention them now? Zhuang Mingge remembered what Antonioni had said about the special treatment of Latin American and Eastern European players in these two countries, so he asked.

You know, cheap Latin American and Eastern European players, both now and in the future, they are a big force in European football. It would be very beneficial for Florence to be able to control some of these resources by setting up satellite clubs in Spain and Germany.

"Sorry, owner, I haven't thought of anything in these two countries that would suit our chosen team." Antonioni shrugged helplessly, "In Spain, Real Madrid and Barcelona are too strong, although Atletico Madrid, Valencia, Deportivo and other teams have frequently challenged their hegemony in the past two years, but they still can't shake the special status of these two clubs in Spain." Moreover, both of these giants see Spain as their backyard, so I don't think Real Madrid and Barcelona will agree to us reaching into the one-third of an acre of land that they control. ”

Although Zhuang Mingge knew that Real Madrid and Barcelona had a transcendent status in Spain, he didn't expect these two clubs to be so awesome in Spain, and it wasn't until today that he really realized this when he heard Antonioni say this. Thinking of this, Zhuang Mingge couldn't help but feel a little annoyed in his heart, he knew that this would not be so bad for Real Madrid.

Real Madrid doesn't have much affection for Fiorentina now, after all, the Italian giants first poached Redondo from Real Madrid, and then robbed Roberto Carlos, who they originally planned to bring in, and took away Brazilian teenager Ze Roberto at a low price this summer. With these old and new hatreds intertwined, Real Madrid will certainly interfere with Fiorentina's construction of a satellite club in Spain.

Don't underestimate Real Madrid's energy, in Zhuang Mingge's previous life, Real Madrid in order to celebrate the club's **, can even ignore the protests of other teams, so that the Spanish Football Federation forcibly changed the time of the Copa del Rey final to March 6, the club was founded, and even the venue was changed to Real Madrid's home Bernabeu stadium.

It's just that this wishful thinking of "using a Copa del Rey champion to present the club's centennial birthday" was disturbed by Super Laco at that time, and slapped Real Madrid in the face, making this so-called "best of the century" club almost become the laughing stock of all Europe.

As for Barcelona, Zhuang Mingge has no intention of dealing with the other party, although he has a little friendship with Cruyff, but this relationship alone cannot make Barcelona agree with Fiorentina, the Italian club, to grab the resources that originally belonged to them, not to mention that it is not a small risk to build a satellite team in Catalonia.

Zhuang Mingge knows very well how xenophobic Barcelona as the representative of Catalonia is, not to mention anything else, even when Van Gaal led Barcelona to complete the league championship in the previous life, Barcelona fans and media did not stop criticizing the Dutch, and the reason is that Van Gaal attaches too much importance to his Dutch hometown and the old department and ignores the players from Barcelona.

Therefore, Fiorentina's plan to build a second-class satellite club in Spain is estimated to be really far away, and the biggest possibility is to build a first-class satellite team, that is, to sign a commissioned training agreement with several mid-level clubs, and loan some good seedlings from South America to accept the tempering of the top league, and then take advantage of it.

"The situation in Germany is similar to that of Spain, the whole German football world is almost completely in the shadow of Bayern Munich, and the teams that can pose a threat to Bayern in the league have all been poached by Bayern Munich in various ways, from Borussia Mönchengladbach (poached Mateus) to Bremen (poached Basler), and now Stuttgart striker Elber, who is constantly rumored with Bayern...... If it weren't for Summer's early retirement due to injury, I'm afraid he would have been poached to Munich this summer to pick up Matthaus's class. Antonioni is also very helpless about the current situation of German football, in his opinion, it is a bit strange that a top European league like the Bundesliga will have a dominant situation, "In this situation, I am afraid that even if we build a satellite club in Germany, it will only be a wedding dress for Bayern Munich." ”

"If that's the case, then it seems that we at Fiorentina will only have to find a few teams in Spain and Germany to sign contract agreements." After listening to Antonioni's explanation, Zhuang Mingge sighed and expressed his views on the club's construction of satellite clubs in Germany and Spain.

Although he has helped Beckenbauer a lot before, Zhuang Mingge will not take it for granted that if Fiorentina really chooses a satellite club in Germany, the football emperor, as the president of Bayern Munich, can resist the promise and temptation and not attack a large number of potential newcomers in the satellite team.

Judging from Bayern's style of dominating the Bundesliga, it is very unlikely that these players will not be visited.

As a result, Zhuang Mingge had to temporarily shelve the idea of building a second-class satellite team in Spain and Germany, but he was still a little depressed.

Could it be that Florence can only give up a large area of high-quality resources in Latin America and Eastern Europe, and can only choose the most potential from them?

Rosicky, Cech, Shevchenko, Arshavin, Nemanja Vidic...... Is this how these world-class stars from Eastern Europe are going to miss out on Fiorentina? Isn't there a solution that has the best of both worlds?
