v5 Chapter 263： Challenge the champion

Wansheng brought more than champions to Manchester City, what else? "Football News" analyzed the problem from the perspective of Manchester City's asset market value. [Latest chapter reading ..]

Before Wansheng became Manchester City's coach, the Manchester City club was still in turmoil.

Manchester City is a large club with a glorious history, but in recent years it has been not good. After 2000, Manchester City returned to the Premier League through two consecutive upgrades. In 2002, after Manchester City was promoted to the Premier League, the team The results are also erratic, so the famous Kevin Keegan can only blame and resign.

In this process, the operation of the Manchester City Club has been greatly affected, and the debt of more than 70 million pounds has become the biggest obstacle to the development of the club.

At this time, the Manchester City Club had more than 70 million pounds of debt, including players, including the stadium and surroundings, all together, and the market value was only about 150 million pounds.

After Wan Sheng became the club's coach, Manchester City's results soared.

Manchester City won the league title last season, coupled with this season's dazzling results, it is also likely to defend the league title. At the same time, Manchester City performed well in the European arena and successfully entered the quarterfinals, which brought great benefits to the club.

It took Manchester City nearly two years to pay off more than 40 million pounds of debt.

In the summer, Manchester City Club will receive the Champions League match share and TV broadcast share, so after the Manchester City Club has paid off the remaining debt of about 30 million pounds, it can also make more than 20 million pounds of profit, plus Manchester City Club in the past two years The development of some of the stars in the team has risen in popularity, and their value has also risen a lot. Up to now, the market value of the Manchester City Club has been estimated to be at least more than 250 million pounds.

"Since the previous year's debt was more than 70 million, and now the net income is more than 20 million, even if the team's players have risen significantly due to their outstanding performance, Wan Sheng has been coaching for two years and has doubled the value of the Manchester City club!"

"Manchester City has become the fastest growing club in Europe, no one!"

After the "Football News" published an article. Many media and fans are amazed by the value created by Wansheng. Some time ago, it was rumored that the Tagore Wan Group company held by Wansheng had assets of hundreds of millions of dollars, but it was an investment after all. Instead of football, it has little to do with the fans, nor is it his master's report. The feeling of the fans is very real. Wansheng's two-year lead, including the rise in player value, has brought Manchester City a total of more than 100 million pounds.

In this way, Wansheng's salary is nothing.

Just like the "London Business News" said, "Wan Sheng's pre-tax annual salary is nearly 7 million pounds, but he has generated more than 100 million pounds of income for Manchester City in two years, plus some players in the team have performed well and worth A huge increase, he has created more than ten times the salary of the Manchester City club in one year! "

"This is understandable. Why the Manchester City Club is willing to pay the 'highest salary' in the world's coaching industry."

Many media and fans are surprised by these numbers, and many clubs are thinking about it. Actually think about it, Wan Sheng ’s salary is only equivalent to that of a Real Madrid superstar player. The team can also lead the team to a good result, even if it is not as good as Manchester City's league champion, the league's second, third and even fourth are acceptable. As long as there is such a result, let alone 7 million pounds, even if it is over 10 million pounds or 20 million pounds, it is definitely worth it, more importantly. After Wansheng arrived in Manchester City, he didn't spend much transfer fees and led the team to a good result.

That's the real personal ability to lead the team!

Unlike Mourinho of Chelsea, Chelsea spends more than 100 million euros on the transfer market every year, but the Portuguese still failed to bring the league championship to the team, Chelsea's performance is also good. But considering their investment in the transfer market, it's really nothing.

If you can invite Wan Sheng to teach in the club, it would be nothing to provide an amazing salary contract.

I don't know how many clubs have similar thoughts.

Of course, it is not easy for them to invite Wansheng, at least there is no chance at present, because the contract between Wansheng and Manchester City will not end until next summer. Before that, even if something happens to the Manchester City Club, it is unlikely to be mentally disabled Dismiss Wansheng.

Back to the topic of the Thaksin consortium's capital injection into the Manchester City club.

The evaluation of the market value of the Manchester City Club is roughly around 250 million pounds, but this is only the market value. If you want to acquire the Manchester City Club in full, the "Football News" evaluation must also provide at least 400 million pounds of funds.

This is not the same as the £ 790 million spent by the Glazer family to acquire the Manchester United club. However, considering the gap between the history and influence of Manchester City and Manchester United, the £ 400 million is definitely a terrifying figure.

Thaksin's consortium, injecting capital into the Manchester City club, is certainly not without purpose.

Thaksin is likely to be the chairman of the Manchester City club.

If you want to become the chairman of the Manchester City club, you must hold decisive shares and directly inject capital with huge funds. Perhaps it is also a good method, because if the funds are sufficient, the Manchester City board of directors is easier to pass because they just reduced the shares in their hands , Instead of losing shares, and having a lot of money to stay, it will also allow Manchester City to develop rapidly. "Football News" predicts that this fund will almost certainly exceed 100 million pounds. This is the most conservative estimate. It is almost impossible for 100 million pounds to acquire more than 50% of the shares, and Manchester City ’s board of directors will not pass it.

Then, the amount of capital injection proposed by the Thaksin consortium can be imagined.

The Guardian speculates that the amount of the capital injection will be around 150 million pounds, which is a very alarming number, but the media comparison is not surprising, because according to the figures released by the 2006 Forbes Fortune List, Thaksin The family-owned assets are about 2.2 billion US dollars. Thaksin is also the only Thai who has made the Forbes rich list,

Now because of Thailand's political and governance reasons, Thaksin went to Britain in exile. He probably wants to live in the UK for a long time. It is understandable that he wants to inject a football club.

This capital injection case by the Thai consortium has also become the biggest news coming into the Manchester City club.

In the media coverage of Manchester City, the club's affairs did not affect Wansheng.

As the media said, Judging from the current results of Wansheng's team, even if the club changes the chairman, it is impossible to dismiss Wansheng, which will be resisted by almost all Manchester City fans.

So this had no effect on Wansheng at all, but he was a bit looking forward to the summer transfer.

In the few seasons he coached, he hasn't had much transfer fees in his hand. Every summer, he buys players with money in his hand. If Thaksin's capital injection is successful, then he will definitely have a huge amount of transfer funds.

"At that time, you can directly buy big stars!" Thinking of these, Wansheng was still looking forward to it.

In the memories of the previous life, Manchester City Club had been acquired by Thaksin Consortium for such a year, and the result was unclear. However, the Thais must have brought a lot of transfer funds to Manchester City. Started to become a 'rich club'.

Wansheng knows very well that in the next few years, football, the world of 'Golden Football', the income of football clubs will increase greatly, they will spend more money to buy stars, and the value of the stars has also risen sharply. So the small club wants to get good results, it becomes more difficult.

So he has no resistance to having funds injected into the team.

The only worry is that if the club changes its chairman, will the new chairman get his hands on the team?

Wan Sheng is not clear.

But it doesn't make sense to think so much now. The current is to continue to lead the team. Manchester City soon ushered in the quarterfinals of the FA Cup, the opponent is Blackburn.

In the quarterfinals of the FA Cup, it is difficult to meet the weak teams. At this stage, there are only a few teams left, including Chelsea and Manchester United, so it is good luck to meet Blackburn. Too.

Blackburn is not a weak team, but there is still a gap compared to Manchester City, not to mention, this game is a home battle. Although the lineup is not complete, Manchester City still defeated Blackburn 1: 0 and advanced to the FA Cup semi-finals.

The next day, all three other FA Cup matches ended.

Manchester City's luck is still good, their opponent in the semifinals is Watford, and the other game is Chelsea and Manchester United duel.

Knowing this result, Wan Sheng said in the media that "the scourge of misfortune", "The confrontation between Manchester United and Chelsea is very attractive. ? It's really worth looking forward to! "

In the thirty-fifth round of the league, Manchester United will have to fight against Chelsea. After that game, it will be the final of the FA Cup. The two teams changed places and will have another FA Cup semi-final battle.

This kind of schedule ... no wonder Wan Sheng will say so ~ www.novelhall.com ~ Especially important is that Manchester United currently have 6 points more than Chelsea, but the two teams play directly against each other. If Chelsea wins, it is expected Tie Manchester United's points and rank second in the Premier League.

Therefore, the match between the two teams in the league will be very intense. Similarly, the FA Cup semi-final is related to whether it can enter the final. It is impossible for the two teams to give up the FA Cup. .

However, Wan Sheng only commented on the media. At present, Manchester City cannot relax, and the most important work in recent days is still hitting the league champion!

"We want to determine the league champion as soon as possible!"

Before playing against Charlton, Manson said to everyone in spirit, "Three rounds in advance? Four rounds? I can't wait to see the other ball team welcome us!"

"Chelsea !? Liverpool !? You are also looking forward to it!" (To be continued.)
