Chapter 1558 Take over Manchester City Club

When the news footage of Li Mu meeting with members of the royal family was broadcast on TV media across the UK, Li Mu had already arrived in Manchester after more than two hours' drive.

Manchester is the second largest city in the UK, but its population is not large. The size of the city, the level of development and the pace of life are much slower than London.

Because the training base of Manchester City Club is in the southwest of Manchester, Li Mu did not enter the city center of Manchester. According to Davidson, the training base of Manchester City Club is next to the training base of Manchester United, about two kilometers away.

The current Manchester City club has just entered the Premier League. In the past few years, it has been ups and downs in the middle and lower reaches. The life is not very comfortable, and now is not the stage when the Middle East local tyrants are crazy to spend money in the future. Therefore, the training base of Manchester City Club has been from From the outside, it doesn't look very stylish.

Looking at the training base, it is basically a piece of football field. There are not many buildings, and most of them are low. Many players on the training ground are training separately. It seems that the first team, the second team, the youth team and even the youth training camp They are all training separately, most of them are teenagers, and most of them are around 10-12 years old.

Each club in the five major leagues attaches great importance to youth training. For any football club, more than half of the more than 20 main players are from the youth training camp of their own club.

Although it is not easy to produce superstars in our own youth training camp, it is easy to cultivate a very stable and loyal club support force, much like a city's leadership team. Most of the top leaders come from other places, but basically all the middle and grassroots are from the local area.

Davidson had already notified Manchester City in advance, and everyone at Manchester City thought that Davidson, the new owner, was going to inspect the club for the first time, so they all attached great importance to it. For a club like Manchester City, most of the staff, coaching staff and even The home team players are facing many problems, the most important of which is the lack of strength and reputation.

When the Goldberg family bought this club, almost everyone in the club was in danger. This is because the Goldberg family is very famous in the UK. Everyone thinks that since Goldberg bought the Manchester City club, they will definitely invest a lot of money to improve the Manchester City club. Strength, they worried that their own strength and fame would not match Goldberg's financial resources.

It's like a small start-up company is acquired by a giant company. Most of the employees of the small company will worry that they will be laid off after the acquisition because they can't meet the high requirements of the giant company for employees.

Therefore, the club has been very nervous since yesterday, and everyone hopes to successfully withstand the inspection of the new boss, otherwise it is very likely that the new boss will be dissatisfied and he will leave the club.

It's not how much the club's staff and players love this club at this stage,

The main reason is that no one wants to be the one who was abandoned. If you want to leave, you have to find a better one and then leave voluntarily.

The convoy stopped in front of the main office building of Manchester City Club, and the club's CEO Arist, head coach Kevin Keegan, and the management of many teams were all lined up at the gate.

These people are not shareholders of the club, they are just professional managers signed by the club. The Goldberg family purchased Manchester City wholly, not only buying all the equity of Manchester City, but also all the staff and player contracts of Manchester City, which are still in the contract period. The manager is still maintaining the operation of the club, while waiting for the strategic deployment of the new boss.

After the car stopped, the driver and co-pilot got on Davidson's assistant and got off the car at the same time. Davidson's assistant opened the door on Davidson's side, and the driver opened the door on Li Mu's side.

Davidson got out of the car first. After the management of the club saw him, they hurried up to welcome the new owner of the club. Unexpectedly, at this time, a young oriental youth with sharp eyes walked out of the car door on the other side. CEO Alister was stunned, because he instantly recognized this young man from the East. He was the Li Mu who was reported madly on the TV media today!

Others also recognized Li Mu one after another, which shocked everyone. They didn't know why Li Mu appeared here. According to TV reports, didn't he just go to Buckingham Palace to meet the Queen and the entire royal family? Moreover, the Queen also awarded him the Grand Cross, the highest knighthood of the Order of the Empire. Why did he appear at the Manchester City Club after a while?

No one could guess what was going on here. CEO Alister was the first to come back to his senses. He first walked up to Davidson, shook hands with him, and said seriously: "Mr. Goldberg, welcome to Manchester City Club. , I'm Arist, the club's CEO, and I've met your son a few times before."

Davidson nodded slightly and smiled: "He complimented you very much."

After that, Davidson pointed to Li Mu and said to everyone: "Everyone, I know you are all waiting for the new owner of the club, but I want to tell you a big news next, before coming here, the Goldberg family has already brought Manchester City All the equity in the club was transferred to Mr. Li Mu, which means that the new owner of Manchester City Club should be Mr. Li Mu, not me, I just accompanied Mr. Li Mu here today."

This time, the audience was in an uproar.

No one would have thought that the owner of Manchester City would change hands again in such a short period of time. It used to be the Goldberg family, and now it has become Li Mu.

Everyone is extremely shocked by this news, because the current presence of Huaxia people and Huaxia Capital in the Premier League is too low.

At this time, Li Mu said with a nonchalant smile: "I usually have a lot of energy, and I may not have much time to pay attention to the club's situation in the future, so the future development of the club will depend on you all to be more attentive."

When Li Mu opened his mouth, everyone really accepted this fact.

However, they did not accept the difficulty or resist psychologically at all. On the contrary, each of them was extremely excited about this fact in their hearts.

They have no reason not to be excited.

First of all, Li Mu has almost secured the position of the richest man in the world. The only thing to wait for is the visualization of the numbers after the listing. The higher Li Mu’s personal wealth, the clearer the future economic situation of the club.

Secondly, Muye Technology has basically secured the first position in the market value of the world's Internet companies. After listing, the market value may be more than double that of the second place. This has formed a double insurance with Li Mu's personal wealth, and Manchester City will lack in the future. There will be no shortage of money for anything;

Once again, Li Mu is too famous, and Muye Technology is also too famous, and Muye Technology's publicity ability is too strong. After Manchester City Club becomes Li Mu's personal club, the overall reputation of the club will definitely skyrocket, and Li Mu only needs to be a little stronger from Muye Technology. A little bit of the publicity capacity of the Manchester City club is enough to ensure that the club will become one of the most famous clubs in the world!

Moreover, a busy person like Li Mu actually came to the club to inspect in person. It can be seen that Li Mu himself is very interested in the club, which is a huge benefit to the club;

The most important thing is what Li Mu said to everyone just now.

Li Mu said that his energy is limited, and the future development of the club will depend on everyone's efforts. As soon as he came up, he showed his favor to the current management team. This proves that Li Mu should have no plans to lay off staff or change blood, at least not yet!

With so many great benefits, how can the executives of these clubs not be excited?

Immediately, CEO Alister stepped forward immediately, shook hands with Li Mu excitedly and excitedly, and said, "I didn't expect, Mr. Li, you will become the boss of Manchester City, this is really exciting!"

Li Mu smiled slightly and said with a smile: "Many things in the club in the future will require Mr. Allister to worry about it."

Allister nodded hurriedly and said very seriously: "I will definitely do my best!"

Afterwards, Arist added: "Mr. Li, let me introduce the main management members of the club to you."

Under the introduction of Allister, Li Mu met and shook hands with head coach Kevin Keegan and the other management of the team. Afterwards, Li Mu raised his voice a little in front of everyone and said, "Everyone said just now. I feel very excited, and I think everyone should be excited, because in the next season, I will invest a lot of money and a lot of publicity resources into Manchester City Club. If you cooperate with everyone, I will I believe we can make Manchester City one of the best clubs in the UK, or even the best club in the UK, no one!"

As soon as I came up, I promised everyone a lot of money and a lot of publicity resources. Li Mu gave these people two tubes of adrenaline as soon as they met, which made everyone flush with excitement. Everyone applauded and applauded. Everyone was excited. All beyond words.

At this time, Davidson said: "Everyone, let's move to the conference room and talk slowly."

Li Mu nodded and said, "Yes, let's sit down and talk slowly."

...

When everyone came to the high-level conference room of Manchester City Club, Li Mu naturally sat at the main seat of the conference table, Davidson sat on his right, and the club's CEO Arist sat on his left.

As soon as he sat down, Li Mu said straight to the point: "Everyone, the new season has begun, and luckily there is still a little time in the summer transfer window, so I would like to convey a few decisions to you next:

First, I will invest 100 million pounds in the club over the next year. The first 50 million pounds will arrive in the shortest time. This money will mainly be used to catch up with the summer transfer window. Before closing, bring in some fresh blood for the club;"

Everyone was immediately excited. Fifty million pounds was used for the introduction of players. At the moment, it is really a huge sum of money. At least two superstars or four quasi-superstars can be introduced to the team.

Immediately, Li Mu added: "Second, before I came, I communicated with my private scouting team and formulated a list of players to be introduced. Every player on this list requires our team to work in the shortest possible time. Contact within time, and try to bring in before the transfer window closes, it doesn’t matter if the other party has a contract, we can pay the penalty.”

Speaking of which, Li Mu looked at head coach Kevin Keegan and said, "Mr. Keegan, please forgive me for overthinking things. In the future, the team's tactics will be entirely up to you, but when it comes to the introduction of players, you must be in the big picture. Follow my arrangement on a level, I hope you can understand;"

Kevin Keegan nodded immediately. When other bosses said something like this to him, he might feel uncomfortable, but when Li Mu said something like this to himself, he really didn't have any temper, because with Li Mu's strength, he could always do it. Replace yourself, and a large group of excellent coaches will squeeze their heads and want to cooperate with him. After all, there are too many resources available to him, and there is too much room for imagination!
