Chapter 927 FC Eindhoven
In fact, the process of acquiring FC Eindhoven went very smoothly. Although the previous owner of the club did not have a strong desire to sell the club, under David's money offensive, he quickly retreated, and the premium exceeded 50%. Being taken advantage of is rare.
The entire acquisition cost Notts County 30 million euros, and the actual total value of FC Eindhoven will not exceed 20 million euros.
The club's training base is shabby, and the home stadium of Lauwers is also shabby. There are little-known players, and there is also a youth academy that is not very professional. This is where the value of FC Eindhoven lies.
In fact, what David spent money on was not the club's hardware, but the loyal fans of FC Eindhoven.
If it weren't for these fans, why would David spend money to buy these rags, and form a club in Eindhoven again, but that would have no fan base!
A one-time investment of 30 million euros is not all. The subsequent construction of the training ground and youth training camp, as well as the repair of the stadium, will cost a lot of money. But for David, as long as PSV Eindhoven can be operated No matter how much you spend, it's worth it.
From the beginning of the negotiation to the final signing, it took only half a day, and then FC Eindhoven officially held a press conference to announce the change of ownership, and Notts County Chairman Pavis became the new owner of the club.
In fact, the press conference was attended by local journalists from the Netherlands. After all, FC Eindhoven is only a small club in the Dutch second league. The local attention in the Netherlands is not too big, let alone in Europe. Others Know who he is!
However, when the Dutch reporters found David sitting in front of the rostrum, they were all dumbfounded. As professional sports reporters, how could they not know who David was?
Even if there is something that I don’t know, I will never forget the earthquake that David brought to Dutch football a while ago. Now David actually appeared at the press conference. Is there really something big going to happen?
Soon, they will know the answer!
David bought FC Eindhoven!
If what David bought was an ordinary Eredivisie club, then everyone may be surprised, but they will not be surprised. After all, David has been planning European football in the past few seasons and has successively acquired shares in several different league clubs. It is not surprising that the target is now transferred to the Netherlands.
But now David bought FC Eindhoven, PSV Eindhoven's rival in the same city. Is it just a coincidence?
Even if you kill them, you won't believe it!
Obviously, this may be a layout of David. To deal with the layout of PSV Eindhoven, it is conceivable that if FC Eindhoven really grows up, how will PSV Eindhoven deal with itself?
Maybe a big city like Milan can accommodate two giants to survive at the same time, but Eindhoven is not a big city like Milan, and resources are limited. The rise of FC Eindhoven will inevitably mean resource plunder.
Loot from whom?
psv Eindhoven!
David's trick is so deep, or it's an upright conspiracy, which is to use the advantages of funds to complete the revenge against PSV Eindhoven, and only David who is not short of money can be so willful!
Soon, the news of David's acquisition of FC Eindhoven spread throughout Europe, once again arousing considerable repercussions.
Many people have nothing to do with themselves and just watch the excitement, and there are also some people who worry about it, and they have even shouted out the Notts County threat theory.
Their reasons and arguments are actually simple. Let's take a look at the results of several clubs in the Notts County Department.
Needless to say, Notts County, the top giants in Europe, the real ruler;
Boavista has completed two consecutive championships in the Portuguese Super League, and also reached the top 16 of the Champions League last season. This season, he also firmly occupies the top spot in the standings, just like the overlord of the Portuguese Super League;
Bei Weilun also completed the domination of the League One, and the Champions League broke into the top 16 for two consecutive seasons.
Although there are factors of good luck in grouping, it cannot deny their strength;
As a new team in Serie A this season, Brescia has performed amazingly. They are currently ranked fifth in the Serie A standings and may even qualify for the Champions League next season. Perhaps given them a few seasons, they may not be without the possibility of being on par with the top three in the north;
There are only 32 places in the Champions League. Maybe Notts County will occupy four places soon. If FC Eindhoven is held together, Notts County, which occupies five Champions League places, can bring the Champions League. How much destructive power, no one knows.
Although this Notts County is still a wholly-owned acquisition of FC Eindhoven, but when that time comes, they will naturally have a way to avoid UEFA's investigation.
The key problem is that no one knows when David will stop his acquisitions. If Notts County adds a few more clubs from different leagues, the Champions League will probably become their own internal awards game by then!
The theories and predictions of these fearmongers are very solid, because their predictions are not impossible.
The fans are all watching the excitement and don't think it's a big deal. Turbulent waves are better than calm waves, so everyone looks like they are waiting to watch the excitement and the good show.
The fans of FC Eindhoven did not feel any dissatisfaction because of the club's change of ownership. On the contrary, everyone felt like they were overjoyed.
They really didn't expect that one day the pie would fall on their heads. Look at the current performance of the clubs acquired by Notts County. That is not the club's strong team temperament. They are likely to become a strong team immediately , let alone upgrade, even winning the Eredivisie is not impossible!
As for whether the owner of the club is a British guy, some people may care, but this is not important. The important thing is whether it can bring substantial benefits to the team. This is the key point.
Perhaps they should thank their rivals in the same city. If they hadn't provoked Notts County, how could Notts County set their sights on this unknown club!
From the press conference, I learned that David will continue to invest in the club, renovate the training base and youth training camp, and will also repair the club's home court. With such a big move, why are they dissatisfied!
They have already begun to imagine the future where the club is upgraded to the Eredivisie, defeats a lot of Eredivisie giants, and even competes with top teams in the Champions League.
If you have to say what they are dissatisfied with, it is that David cannot sit in the Netherlands forever. With the chairman of the most successful club in the world football, how can FC Eindhoven not be strong?
Compared with the joy of FC Eindhoven fans, perhaps the fans of other Eredivisie clubs will be nervous. In their hearts, this is the rhythm of a wolf coming! (To be continued.) Browse and read address:
