Chapter Four Hundred and Thirteenth, Get Rough!

After talking with Real Madrid, Sun Yue led the team to Barcelona without stopping.

Although Roselle and Yang Huan had some contradictions in their personal relationships, the most important thing was Roselle's envy, jealousy and hatred.

But from the club's point of view, Roselle still supports Barcelona's participation in the International Champions Cup.

Especially when Miracle Media promised to give the first appearance fee, Roselle agreed without hesitation.

In the four warm-up matches, the opponents are strong and the schedule is reasonable. As long as the preparations are good, who will refuse?

Besides, I can still get back 12 million euros of income, but a fool would refuse it.

With the two dazzling gems of Real Madrid and Barcelona, ​​plus the new Champions League champions Bayern Munich and the new Europa League champions Southampton, the weight of the first International Champions Cup is far more than the past two North American competitions of e-company. Invitational.

Whether it is from the overall strength of the team or from the dazzling degree of starlight, it is far superior.

Yang Huan is quite satisfied with the harvest of Sun Yue's trip to Spain.

After getting Real Madrid and Barcelona, ​​plus Juventus, Southampton, Bayern Munich and Arsenal, there are six teams in total, and the foundation of the competition is solid.

For the remaining two places, Yang Huan is considering choosing between Manchester United, Manchester City and Chelsea.

The influence of Manchester United and Chelsea in the United States is still quite good, after all, they are the teams that Peter Nien has worked for.

Mr. Bald is quite standard in operating the North American market.

But if the other party's requirements are too high, then make a decisive substitution.

Whether it is Dortmund in the Bundesliga, Inter Milan and Roma in Serie A, or Paris Saint-Germain in Ligue 1, they are all very good targets.

After all, this is only the first

As long as the operation of the event is successful and the promotion is effective, are you still afraid that these giant teams will not come to participate in the future?

At that time, I am afraid that they will come to the door one by one, begging to participate.

Blacksmithing has to be hard on its own, that's the truth

What surprised Yang Huan was that Sun Yue brought back another piece of news.

"What? Stroman? Neymar?"

Yang Huan was a little unbelievable.

"You said Florentino and Roselle both asked about Strowman and Neymar?"

Sun Yue couldn't help nodding, "Yes, I can see that they are full of interest in both Strowman and Neymar, that will definitely not be fake."

This time, Yang Huan couldn't help but feel funny.

I didn't see it, this Dutchman is still a gem

It's a bit interesting to be able to make Barcelona and Real Madrid compete for people.

As for Neymar, Yang Huan is not surprised at all.

The popularity of Brazilians is well-known in football circles, and can be called the number one golden boy in today's football.

In today's football, who doesn't want to own Neymar?

The problem is, Southampton has to be persuaded to let go

"Frankly speaking, I'm not surprised that Barcelona want to get Strowman, because Barcelona has always had the habit and genes of bringing in Dutch players, but even Real Madrid want Strowman, then I'm a little surprised."

Barcelona's tactical system was created by the Dutch, from Cruyff to Van Gaal to Rijkaard, in the same line.

So, it is normal for Barcelona to love Dutch players.

But Real Madrid has always been mismatched with Dutch players. Before, whether it was Sneijder, Van der Vaart, or Robben, they failed to win recognition in Real Madrid. Instead, they all shined after leaving the team.

At this time, Real Madrid still want to get Stroman?

"Who makes midfielders like Strowman rare in the transfer market?" Sun Yue said with a wry smile.

Yang Huan burst into laughter when he heard it.

Modric, who was originally better than Strowman, is the darling of the transfer market.

But now, the Croats were won by Southampton ahead of schedule, and naturally it is time for Stroman to play the leading role.

Thinking about it carefully, Real Madrid really needs a player like Strowman who can organize and defend to share the pressure of the core midfielder Xavi and Lonzo.

And Strowman is indeed the type of midfield that Mourinho loves.

"Give me the news, Stroman is not for sale," Yang Huan laughed.

What is not for sale?

It means that your bid is not high enough

Without a sky-high price, are you embarrassed to buy my not-for-sale items?

get rough

"Notify Strowman's agent again, about the transfer, we will talk about the transfer after the European Cup."

Of course Sun Yue understood what Master Huan meant.

Since so many teams are trying to grab Strowman, why bother?

In case Strowman performs well in the European Cup, the price must skyrocket.

Even if the performance is sluggish, what does it matter?

Big deal, Southampton won't sell

Yang Huan is not very happy to sell Stroman anyway.

This should also be a sentence, no desire is just

"Mr. Jill, this is the latest fax of the North American Invitational Tournament in late July from e company."

In his office at Old Trafford, David Gill took a document from his assistant.

After a cursory glance, he frowned, "The appearance fee is only two million euros?"

Saying that, David Gil threw the document in his hand on the table, looking a little dissatisfied.

"The price offered by Miracle Media is three million, and the price is clearly marked, and they only give two million?"

The assistant stood there with a slight smile and said, "So, this time, e company failed to invite the top team."

"Oh?" David Gill raised his head and looked at the assistant.

"According to the information I have received, the teams currently determined to participate in the North American Invitational are Toronto f Seattle Sounders, Los Angeles Galaxy and Washington D.C. United, all of which are major league teams."

David Gill couldn't help turning his head back, "Isn't this still the same as last year?"

Last year's North American Invitational featured European powerhouses like Real Madrid, Manchester United, Manchester City, Juventus and Barcelona, ​​but who were the other opponents?

United States West United, United States East United, Mexico League America and Guadalajara.

It is undeniable that these teams either have home field advantage or are not bad.

But the problem is, there is no commercial appeal.

Who wants to pay a high price for a ticket and go to a game with a team that you can't pronounce at all?

Why is FIFA's World Club Championship inferior to the Champions League?

Is this something unclear?

The assistant smiled bitterly: "So far this year, the only confirmed foreign team is Santos Laguna in the Mexican League."

"Interesting?" David Gill asked with a sneer.

In recent years, the broadcast rights of the Premier League in North America have become more and more sought-after, especially as the European giants go to the United States to play commercial games every summer, the football desert of the United States has gradually become a football paradise.

But this has been done twice, why is the e company still so petty?

Thinking of this, David Gill couldn't help but look at another fax document on the table that he put aside.

Relatively speaking, Miracle Media appears to be more courageous, and they invite top teams that are second to none.

Those who can be assistants are masters who are very good at observing words.

As soon as I saw David O. Gill glanced at the documents of Miracle Media, I knew it.

"Mr. Gill, according to Spanish newspaper Marca and AS, Real Madrid and Barcelona have accepted the invitation."

David Gill nodded.

From the perspective of commercial value, Manchester United's influence in North America is not lost to Real Madrid and Barcelona.

In other words, if Manchester United accepts the invitation, the appearance fee will definitely be the first tranche.

Three million euros, four games not counting the prize money, more than ten million euros, quite a high income.

Sometimes, David Gill even thinks, is Yang Huan crazy?

Otherwise, how could such a high appearance fee be given?

But people also said that signing the right to participate in five competitions in one go, black and white, how can there be fakes?

"Sir Ferguson called again today to urge us to determine the preparations for the summer as soon as possible. He should prepare as soon as possible."

When the assistant said this, he looked at David Gill in front of him, "What should we do now?"

David Gill did not answer immediately, but sighed deeply.

"The Chinese have a saying, it is better to be the head of a chicken than the tail of a phoenix. Little do you know that if you stay in the flock for a long time, even if you are a phoenix, you will become a chicken, but a chicken will stay in the flock for a long time. Now, maybe if there is a chance, it will be more delicate than the Phoenix.”

The assistant was stunned, why is the boss talking so strange today?

But from the point of view of commercial value, this is indeed the case.

"Then... Mr. Jill, you mean..."

"Go, give Miracle Media a call and say we've decided to play in the International Champions Cup"

The assistant was taken aback and made a decision?

But before he could react, David Gill said again.

"Go and call Peter Nien again and say that I hope to find a chance to meet him in the next two days, and the location will be Southampton."

The assistant was even more surprised, "Are you going in person?"

"Yes, go in person"

After David Gill finished speaking, he sighed deeply and waved to the assistant at the same time, indicating that he can go out.

After the assistant closed the door, David Gill closed his eyes and muttered to himself.

"I didn't expect it, but I still have to take the initiative to come to the door."

In this world, there will never be clear-cut enemies and friends, but only permanent interests.

European giants have been developing the North American football market for a long time, starting from David Beckham, Henry and other superstars successively switching to the American Major League, and then to the outstanding performance of the United States in international competitions in recent years, all of which are igniting the enthusiasm of the American people for football.

It has been reported by the media before that among people under the age of 40 in the United States, football is the second most popular sport in the United States after rugby.

Ashamed to say, in the under-25 age group, the most popular European teams are Cristiano Ronaldo's Real Madrid, and Messi's Barcelona.

Which team is the third-placed team?

Not Manchester United, nor Bayern Munich, nor Milan and Inter Milan.

rather Southampton

This is a very outrageous survey result and even sparked countless controversies, but it is true

The reason is that the Internet

When Lin Yuner wore a Southampton jersey and posted a few photos on WeChat, it could trigger a stir in the American media, and it even caused the Southampton jersey to be sold out of stock.

This is so crazy, so unreasonable

However, this trend is gradually becoming mainstream

Do not believe?

Just look at how popular Ibrahimovic, Neymar, Messi, Cristiano Ronaldo and others are on social networks.

You will really find that the world has long exceeded your imagination

David Gill has to admit that his business sense and keeping pace with the times are not as good as Yang Huan and Peter Nien, which directly causes Manchester United to lag behind Southampton and Real Madrid and other teams in this regard.

But now, he must hurry to keep up.

Do not seek to surpass, but at least follow closely behind.

There is a saying that is well said, those who cannot keep up with the times will be eliminated by the times
