Chapter 637: I want to be in White Hart Lane!

Arsenal is one of the largest clubs in the Premier League. Since the establishment of the club, it has won 13 Premier League titles, 13 FA Cup championships and 3 English Premier League titles. The longest staying football league.

I am afraid that everyone is not unaware of this Premier League team, but it is such a superb Premier League team, frequent Champions League Champions, but never won a Champions League championship, people sent the nickname "Four madness", Because since Arsene Wenger coached, Arsenal have ranked in the top four to qualify for the Champions League in all previous seasons. There is no problem in participating in the Champions League to make money for the club, but it has nothing to do with the championship.

Of course, he is also known for his keying. Andy is very optimistic about this team and has the ability to buy this club, but after reading the information, he has no appetite. The board of directors of this club is very bitter, Andy a little bit. No money wasted on a group of greedy vampires.

The current valuation of Arsenal Club is 432 million pounds, about 560 million US dollars. The price is not bad. After all, it has its own new stadium and its world-renowned reputation is also there. But to acquire more than 70 white shares, Andy not only Money needs to cost much more than the valuation, the resistance will be very large, and the shares are too scattered. There are a lot of people in this club. Recently, f1 "director" Bernie Ecclestone He said that he was very interested in acquiring the Premier League giant Arsenal club, as well as Wal-Mart's son-in-law, and sports management giant Kronke also joined the acquisition of Arsenal.

Contested Andy didn't worry too much, as long as the price is not too outrageous, it is acceptable, and the current board of the Arsenal club passed a resolution after kicking the original director, in April next year The former club cannot be sold. That is to say, if you have money, you have to wait. Even if you buy shares now, you will be excluded from the board to watch. What's more, Arsenal is currently the only club that sells shares to fans. When more than 90% of the shares, Andy can compulsively purchase all the shares outside and complete 100% ownership.

Thinking of the long road to acquisition and the negotiation time and time again, Andy really didn't want to deal with a group of rigid and stubborn British guys with an inexplicable sense of superiority. Moreover, Arsenal also succeeded Wenger and defeated Wenger. Arsenal's status is so solid that playing Golden Yuan football may not necessarily be good, especially now that this Arsenal team is completely a youth army. Even if they take over themselves, the changes will not be too great.

Another club that Andy is optimistic about is Tottenham Hotspur. As a famous Labour Party team, Tottenham has economic conditions comparable to the four giants, but they always linger outside the giants. Although Her Majesty has a lot of stars, the team's record is undulating like a roller coaster. After reading the data, Andy knows that Tottenham have spent a total of 40 million pounds to strengthen this summer, although the Premier League ’s gold dollar football gates It has been opened, but Tottenham has not really spent a lot of money.

However, they have not been able to take the fifth place last season to a higher level than expected, posing a challenge to the traditional top four of the Premier League. In the first round of the season, Tottenham fans broke their glasses. They were defeated by promoted Ma Sunderland in the away game, and then lost 3 of them in the next 5 games. It is also a matter of time before the current coach leaves the class.

Many people mistakenly believe that Tottenham Chairman Levy is the owner of the club. In fact, Tottenham is controlled by the British consortium eni Investment Corporation, and the real boss is precisely the president of Eni Investment Corporation, billionaire Joe Lewis. Levi, a Jewish boss who owns a small stake in Eni, is a friend of Lewis.

In the Premier League's Golden Yuan football in July 2003, an event with a turning point in the history of the Premier League occurred: Abu came.

Russian legendary rich man Abramovich pointed his finger at Stamford Bridge. Then, more foreigners, Americans, Icelanders, and Thais came with huge checks. As of now, half of the Premier League teams have fallen into the hands of foreign bosses, and the US dollar, Thai baht, and the tide are pouring into the Premier League. The revolutionary storm came suddenly, but from the beginning, it was vigorous.

In the tide, Chelsea relied on the ruble offensive and instantly overturned the traditional Premier League order established by Ferguson and Wenger throughout their lives. Mourinho then became a specific hero of this particular era.

As a result of the acquisition of Liverpool by Americans, three of the four Premier League giants are already under the control of foreign capital. As for the only Arsenal currently controlled by the British, it has also become the target of foreign capital acquisitions. Kroenke's acquisition of Arsenal is still proceeding in an orderly manner.

The arrival of the subprime mortgage crisis has caused Joe Lewis to lose money by investing in stocks and futures. Especially when he entered the British financial market in September, regardless of the government, it directly led to the thirst for cash in the market. Earlier, Liverpool and Arsenal, North London's deadly rival, have been bought by foreign capital. That is impossible.

He bought Tottenham for 22 million pounds in 2001. If this time he could be acquired by a foreign consortium, his eni investment company would ease cash flow. He would definitely be happy to see it happen.

So last month, the Daily Mirror revealed that Spurs coach Levy was very interested in the club's possible acquisition by a foreign consortium. The Spurs club is currently valued at about 400 million pounds, although Spurs It was sluggish at the beginning of the season, but their finances were very good.

Announced that the club has a working capital of 113 million pounds and a profit of 32 million pounds, both of which set a new club high. The club also intends to buy nearby land to expand the Egret Lane stadium from 36,000 seats to 52,000 seats.

Andy's helplessness with Tottenham's lion's big opening, the key is that the **** son-in-law of Wal-Mart even pushed Arsenal's valuation to 1 billion pounds in order to crack down on competitors, making Spurs want to kill large households. Unfortunately, the world is in a subprime mortgage crisis, and when cash is thirsty, even Wal-Mart's son-in-law has also postponed the pace of acquisition. Tottenham, a club that is not even a giant, is naturally unattended. Faced with media enquiries, Tottenham said they did not know and did not receive any consortium bids for the club.

The price of 400 million pounds is definitely unacceptable to Andy. Even if the club's liquidity is 113 million pounds, this also requires Andy to spend a high price of 300 million pounds to acquire Spurs. In the future, desert tyrants will only buy Manchester City. It cost 200 million pounds. Well, although there are factors in which Thaksin exile pays for asylum, the price of Tottenham is still inflated. However, as long as there is an intention to sell, it is a good thing, no trouble, negotiation As long as you face a Joe Lewis, his company holds 82% of the club.

He bought the team in order to make his asset investment ratio more reasonable, not to buy money for what reputation, to play live football, the reason why he entered the Premier League, mainly because the Premier League can really make money As long as they can reach the Champions League, the club can be fully self-sufficient to play gold football. What's more important is that the pseudo fan of Andy found Gareth Bell's name in the Tottenham player list.

Nima, this is a big walking diamond, worth 91 million euros. When you think about it, Andy feels happy. Although he is a fake fan, there is no problem in watching the ball, but the real professional stuff does not understand, but he knows In the future, that player is famous and valuable. This is enough. Buy one by one cheaply and sell them at the sky-high price of one by one. Gosh, think about it and get excited. There is nothing wrong with the player supermarket!

Andy dreamed of his player supermarket dream and rushed to Newsweek Building. As soon as he entered the office, he gave him Granada, who is currently in charge of setting up a sports investment company, and asked him to come over with the person in charge of the football project.

Abu also mentioned with Andy on the phone. In 2003, he also considered buying Tottenham, but then the former England national coach Eriksson persuaded Abu if he wanted to win the league championship. Then buy Chelsea, because he only needs to change half of the team. At that time, if he bought Tottenham, he might replace the entire team.

However, Tottenham can now rank fifth in the league. I have to say that the development of Tottenham has been quite good in recent years. Perhaps it is a good choice to own White Hart Lane. In this way, only Abu can be regarded as a friend. He will become an ally of Chelsea in the Premier League. The enemy is also Arsenal in North London. Ha ha, when the Premier League London City War may really enter the fierce competition, Champions League tickets The gold content will be even greater, and will also focus the eyes of fans around the world in the Premier League.

He Andy Smith will also fully enter the eyes of 3.5 billion fans around the world to promote the sales of his products and his novels, which is better than any advertisement. He didn't have the same kind of fear that Abu spent all day, fearing to be accounted for after the fall, so he desperately spent money to buy fame and increase influence. What he wanted Andy Smith was to change his fame and influence into green beauty knives. Economy, there is always no shortage of fans in the world for various reasons.

Thinking of this, Andy was holding a coffee and tapping lightly, as if thinking of the future he could see, he could not help grinning.

So when Granada, the head of the sports investment company, brought in his men to sit down, the first sentence Andy said was, "I want to enter the White Hart Lane!"
