Chapter 623 Acquisition and Baggio
? On the day of the end of the game, the entire Notts County team flew back to England immediately, but David did not leave with the team because the negotiations between his investment team and Brescia had made substantial progress.
Brescia chairman Corioni's final offer is 130 million euros. From the current situation, it is impossible to want to lower it, unless Brescia is really relegated from Serie A at the end of this season.
However, Corioni made it clear that if Brescia were relegated, then he would not sell the club, but would choose to bring the club back to life. Although there may be a price increase factor, David is really afraid that he has such a Choice, after all, in the past life, Corioni has been sitting in the chairman position of Brescia.
Well, it’s a blessing to suffer a loss. Maybe it seems that David has to pay tens of millions more, but for David, money is just a number to him. He doesn’t care about how much money he has in his pocket, and How can you care about these tens of millions of euros!
When signing the contract, David did not show up, but fully authorized the investment team to complete it. The media only knew that this was a capital from the United States, and it was not possible to detect more for the time being.
Of course, David just felt that the final stage of Notts County would be monotonous, and he did not want to hide the fact that he was the owner of Brescia. After all, the investigation by the Italian Football Association was not a decoration, and he could not hide it for a lifetime.
This club acquisition is the first time that foreign investment has entered Italian football, but it has caused a lot of waves in Italian football. Many bigwigs openly objected, and many radical nationalists protested. However, this did not There is no actual impact, because the buyer and the seller have reached an agreement, and the Italian Football Association has not expressly stipulated that foreign capital is not allowed to enter Italian clubs.
In fact, the reason why the Italian Football Association did not publicly express its opposition and created conditions for the acquisition intentionally or unintentionally, although it seems that Italian football is bright and the top teams have relatively stable results in European competitions, the real situation is that with the The Italian economic environment continues to decline, but the operation of Serie A clubs is becoming increasingly difficult, the financial situation is worrying, and the traditional family-run business philosophy is still a serious constraint to the development of Italian football.
This acquisition can be said to be an attempt by the Italian Football Association. Compared with Italian capital, foreign capital is obviously more dynamic and operational. If a better development model can be created, then the Italian Football Association does not mind following suit.
In Brescia, the fans did not have much resistance to the club's acquisition by foreign investors. After all, the team's relegation situation is difficult, and it is difficult to say that it will be able to stay in Serie A next season. Since it is almost rotten to the end, why not come Break and stand!
Since Baggio retired, Brescia has seen that they are going to return to the old road in history. You must know that in history, they are only a small club, they have not had a championship, they do not have so many rich and powerful heritage, and There's not that much luxury.
If this capital from the United States can really lead the club to glory, then why don't they accept it with open arms!
Although Italians have the most xenophobic ideology in the whole of Europe, it does not mean that they are old and stubborn.
Look at Chelsea in the Premier League. After being acquired by the Russian oligarch Abu, it has become a top team, and it is a little behind the giants. Which team dares to say that it will be able to win against Chelsea?
If they can also become the Chelsea of Italian football, no matter who his boss is! Anyway, the most happy worry must be their fans!
In this way, amid the chaos, the foreign acquisition of Brescia has settled, and Italian football is about to open a new chapter.
After the acquisition, David still did not leave, and the operation of the club after the acquisition requires him to direct behind the scenes.
Because the league is not over yet, all the clubs from top to bottom, David did not lay off a person, the club is still operating step by step, he needs a few high-level leaders to stabilize his military heart, of course, if the team can really avoid relegation, it will be the most perfect .
After that, he has to think about next season, first of all he wants to find the most suitable general manager for Brescia.
Got Baggio's phone call from the club, and David called without hesitation. At this time, Baggio was doing charity work in Haiti with the United Nations Food Organization.
"Hello, Mr. Baggio, I'm David Parvis, the chairman of the Premier League club Notts County!" After the call was connected, David formally introduced himself!
Baggio on the other end of the phone subconsciously replied "Hello!", but he was a little stunned. He didn't understand why the chairman of the Notts County Club called him, although he no longer engaged in football-related work after retiring. But it does not mean that he has completely left football. For Notts County, the most popular club in Europe, he is still very loud. You must know that when he retired last season, Notts County just won the Premier League. champion.
"I don't know what is the matter with Mr. Parvis calling me?" Baggio asked politely, but he speculated in his heart, is he planning to invite himself back to Notts County to play football?
Baggio's brain hole can still stand. Notts County has a strong and stable performance, but if you want to be promoted to a giant, stable results are not enough, you need a wider influence, and he used to be the world's top player. Joining will undoubtedly add a lot of attention to Notts County, which will be of great help to the improvement of Notts County.
But obviously, David can't really invite him to play at Notts County.
"It's like this, Mr. Baggio, maybe you don't know the news. I have acquired the Brescia club. Now I solemnly invite you to be the general manager of the Brescia club. I wonder what you think?" David did not talk to Baggiodo. Go around in circles, because he knows Baggio is a simple and pure person.
"What? You bought Brescia?" Baggio was taken aback. Although he knew that Brescia, his old club, had been acquired by a foreign investment, he never thought that the person who bought it was David, a big man in English football.
"Yes, from now on, the Brescia club belongs to me, but the focus of my work will definitely be in England, so I need someone who has unparalleled influence at the club to manage the club, and you are undoubtedly the best choice. !" David said truthfully. (To be continued.)
