Chapter 988: The countryside surrounds the city

  

   There have been many rumors about the dissolution of the G14 organization.

  

   Some people say that Chelsea, because of love and hatred, originally wanted to join the G14 organization, but was not accepted, and eventually turned to UEFA.

  

   But this statement is not true.

  

   In 2008, the G14 organization had realized that the crisis was approaching, and wanted to expand its army. From the original 18 teams, it quickly increased to 40 teams to improve its ability to compete in front of UEFA.

  

   Chelsea was included in the expansion roster at that time.

  

   But Peter Kenyon, who was still the chief executive of Chelsea at the time, eventually declined the invitation to G14, even for several other teams.

  

   This sudden change eventually caused the G14 expansion plan to be temporarily shelved, and internal morale was greatly reduced.

  

Some say that Barcelona is the ghost of UEFA and disintegrated the G14 organization from within. Therefore, as soon as G14 was disbanded, Barcelona immediately won the triple crown and became the strongest team in Europe, establishing the dream three team dynasty .

  

   But is this statement reliable?

  

   If there are no contradictions within the G14 organization, what big waves can be caused by Barcelona alone?

  

You know, although the chairman of Barcelona Laporta was one of the deputy chairman of the executive committee when the European Clubs Association was established, his voice in European football is not important, let alone , There is still a chairperson of the executive committee above his head.

  

   Even within the G14, Barcelona does not have much say.

  

   It can only be said that the dissolution of the G14 organization is more about the lack of effective balance and control of internal conflicts of interest, coupled with the failure to expand the army, and finally fell apart under the lure of UEFA.

  

Rummenigge and others have repeatedly reflected on the reasons for the dissolution of the G14 organization, and when the European Clubs Association was established, they learned lessons and appropriately delegated power to the middle and lower teams. This is what we have now. Set of regulations of the European Clubs Association.

  

   Not only that, the European Clubs Association is more open and tolerant than the G14 organization.

  

   For upstarts such as Manchester City and Tottenham Hotspur, they have all given the green light.

  

  Because they know that if they don’t accept them, sooner or later, this group of capital upstarts will, like Chelsea back then, use new forces to compete with the European Clubs Association.

  

   Even the recurrence of the tragedy of the dissolution of the G14 organization may not happen.

  

   There are also some dissidents, and the European Clubs Association also absorbed them.

  

   such as Hannover 96 in the Bundesliga.

  

   To say that in the Bundesliga, no matter how you line up, the number of places in the European Club Association will not fall into the head of Hannover 96? Not to mention that before him, there were veteran powerhouses such as Frankfurt, Wolfsburg, Hamburg and Werder Bremen.

  

   By the way, this piece of pie that fell from the sky hit Hanover 96.

  

   Why is he?

  

  Because Hannover 96 is a hard-core dissident in the Bundesliga, Martin Kinder is committed to abolishing a series of restrictions on the Bundesliga fifty plus one. What is the role of this series of clauses?

  

   That is to ensure Bayern Munich's dominance in the Bundesliga.

  

   Just imagine, if the Bundesliga opens up capital and attracts influx of foreign capital, can Bayern Munich still have such a detached position as it is now?

  

The rise of Hamburg last season almost lifted Bayern Munich’s stage. If there are more teams, such as the Red Bull of Bundesliga, another Middle East consortium, an American consortium, or even a consortium from Africa and Asia, then Bayern Munich. Are you still playing a fart?

  

   As for the financial health, OK, this is very simple, in front of professional financial professionals, it is as easy as playing a house.

  

   Therefore, if the Bundesliga wants to let go of restrictive policies such as 50 plus one, the biggest resistance will come from Bayern Munich.

  

   For dissidents like Hanover 96, Rummenigge believes that the best way is to bring the dissidents under his jurisdiction.

  

   Therefore, Hannover 96, along with Dortmund, Bayern Munich, Schalke Zero Four and Leverkusen, became one of the five Bundesliga clubs in the European Club Association.

  

In the past few years, the leaders of the European Clubs Association are quite satisfied with the set of rules that they have worked hard and racked their brains to establish, and they are also constantly using this set of rules. , To absorb potential threats, and continue to strengthen their voice in European football.

  

   It should be said that they had a lot of fun and had a good time, until recently.

  

   is the same as all rules, as long as it is a rule, there will be loopholes.

  

   Recently, Ed Woodward of Manchester United has started to be very active within the organization. It seems that he is very interested in the seat of the European Clubs Association's executive committee, and has attracted a lot of votes.

  

   But this is not the point, because Manchester United is a veteran team and it doesn't matter if it becomes a member of the executive committee.

  

  According to the current list, Arsenal is one of the four teams in the UEFA Strategy Committee. Even if Manchester United are elected, the Premier League will occupy two seats out of the fifteen executive committee members. That is not a big deal.

  

  The point is that Monaco and Inter Milan are also working hard to fight for votes in the competition for executive committee seats, and their voices are very high.

  

   When the European Clubs Association was established, Inter Milan was one of the executive committee members, but in recent years it has been replaced by Juventus, and Milan’s executive committee status has never been shaken.

  

   Now, Inter Milan is making a comeback.

  

   But Monaco stood up to compete with Lyon, which was a bit unexpected.

  

   This is only the first echelon.

  

  According to the rules, the first tier is the league ranked first to sixth in European war points, and a total of five executive committee members are selected.

  

   If you leave out the unshakable chair of Rummenigge of the Bundesliga, four will be selected.

  

   Manchester United, Monaco and Inter Milan are one each. Who is left?

  

   It is estimated that the veteran giant Real Madrid is the most likely.

  

   But this is also not the point.

  

In the second tier, that is, the seventh to fifteenth league, there will be three places. As a result, Ajax of the Netherlands, Anderlecht of Belgium, and Basel of Switzerland have all come forward to compete. .

  

   You must know that the second-tier teams are all leagues such as Ukraine, Belgium, the Netherlands, Turkey, Switzerland, and the Czech Republic, and these teams are all powerful teams in the second-tier teams with a reputation.

  

   Especially Ajax, the veteran G14 team, is considered a veteran team in the European Clubs Association.

  

   In the third echelon, Vienna, Austria, also came forward to campaign, and the voice was very loud.

  

   The other team is probably the Celtics of Scotland.

  

   Then the problem arises.

  

If Monaco, Inter Milan, Ajax, Anderlecht, Basel and Vienna, Austria all get the seats they want on the executive committee of the European Clubs Association, the result is what?

  

   As a result, Yang Huan holds six executive committee seats!

  

   A total of fifteen seats, I got six for you.

  

  According to the regulations of the European Clubs Association, any decision must be approved by more than two-thirds of the members of the executive committee in order to be effective. In other words, Yang Huan has a veto right!

  

From now on, any major event of the European Clubs Association, what Yang Huan said may not count, but if Yang Huan doesn’t nod, it will definitely not count. Then the other teams can’t do it one by one. Come slap you up and please you?

  

   What's more, Manchester United and Arsenal are not Premier League teams. Who knows how close they are to Southampton?

  

   The Premier League has always had the ambition to surpass other leagues over the years.

  

  It can be said that Master Huan’s trick is simply more hooligans than hooligans, and the countryside surrounds the city!

  

   Rummenigge had known before that Yang Huan had developed vigorously in Europe and opened up his own football empire, but he never paid attention to what happened to the teams that Yang Huanzhen had acquired.

  

   But not long ago, when he heard about Peter Kenyon's active operation of several teams running for the executive committee, he suddenly realized and was taken aback.

  

   Nimei, these teams are not bought casually, they are all rushed to the executive committee seats.

  

   It can even be said that from the first tier to the fourth tier, there are teams of Yang Huan, or teams closely related to Yang Huan.

  

   As for the fifth echelon, more than two dozen teams went to grab a seat, which was too cost-effective and was completely ignored by Yang Huan.

  

   Peter Kenyon's energy in European football, Rummenigge knows well.

  

   This guy's connections, resources and ability to do things are not inferior to him at all.

  

   Therefore, Rummenigge knew very well that if Peter Kenyon mastered these resources with Yang Huan's strong support, he might even be threatened with his position as a leader.

  

   In this case, Rummenigge also felt that he should act.

  

   Therefore, he took the initiative to help contact and create conditions for Southampton to join the European Clubs Association.

  

   Not only that, he also took the initiative to approach Yang Huan, hoping to appease this upstart who has more and more say in European football.

  

   But he didn't expect Master Huan to be unmoved.

  

   He knew in his heart that Yang Huan was not as desperate and wantless as he seemed on the surface, because if he really wanted nothing, then why did Peter Kenyon do so many things?

  

   Even, how long has it been since the secret layout?

  

   Therefore, it is a lie to say that he has nothing to ask for. It can only be said that the bargaining chip he opened is not high enough.

  

   Thinking of this, Rummenigge suddenly smiled, "Master Huan, I wonder if you have heard of the reform of the UEFA Executive Committee?"

  

   He can guarantee that Yang Huan must know.

  

  Because Platini and Infantino must have told him already.

  

   "Oh, do you want to reform?" Yang Huan was obviously pretending to be stupid.

  

   Rummenigge gave a secret cry. Sure enough, this Young Master Huan is not a small man.

  

   "Don’t hide the truth from Young Master Huan, UEFA wants to reform. I have reached an agreement with them before. Among the 15 members of the Executive Committee, all of our club representatives will get two seats."

  

   "Really?" Yang Huan asked pretending to be surprised.

  

   But where is the slightest surprise in his tone?

  

   Rummenigge is depressed, dare to feel that this UEFA executive committee member is nothing in the eyes of Young Master Huan!

  

   You must know that these 15 executive committee members are in control of UEFA. This time the club was able to get two seats for an unprecedented time. This is already quite remarkable and a great victory.

  

   As long as there is this start~www.readwn.com~ and then slowly plan to expand the club’s influence in UEFA, who dares to say that there is no hope of controlling UEFA in the future?

  

   You know, compared to the one-ticket wine bag and rice bag, this group of people in the club are all capable and talented!

  

   Rummenigge knew in his heart that what Young Master Huan had planned this time should be this quota.

  

To masturbate, there are only two places for the UEFA power center. Rummenigge himself must get one of them, and whoever is the other one, he had to wait for the European Clubs Association. The members of the executive committee are fighting.

  

   Arsenal’s Gazidis, Milan’s Gantini, Moscow’s Central Army’s Ginner and Barcelona’s Bartomeu, these four have entered the UEFA Strategy Committee and are not selected as executive members.

  

  In other words, the remaining ten executive committee members will compete for one of them.

  

   Rummenigge was stunned when he thought of this.

  

   When the middle and lower teams are incapable, and may not even have ambition, who will compete with Young Master Huan for this place?

  

   Sure enough, when he suddenly realized, Yang Huan looked at him with a smile, every word, and said in an overbearing and indisputable tone, "Karl, I want the remaining spot!"

  

   At this moment, Rummenigge didn't even have the thought to refuse!

  

   The mystery is finally revealed! (To be continued) [This text is provided by Qihang Update Team@冰山berg123]
