Chapter 767 Don't Count on It!

The Bayern Munich headquarters, located at 51 Sebena Street in Harlaching, a southwestern suburb of Munich in southern Germany, is a sacred place in the hearts of all Bayern Munich fans.

Here is not only Bayern Munich's training base and youth academy, but also the club's administrative office.

It is no exaggeration to say that this is the heart of Bayern Munich.

At this moment, in the conference hall on the second floor of the Bayern Munich headquarters office building, the lights are bright and the staff is neat.

"I spoke to Pep Guardiola and he told me very clearly that he wants Manuel Neuer and Toni Kroos!"

As the team's director of athletic affairs, Summer is expressing his opinion.

"Both players are world-class and both are the first choice in Guardiola's tactical system."

Everyone present was not surprised either.

For a goalkeeper like Neuer, if he really plans to leave Southampton, whichever team he goes to will be the core force.

As for Tony Kroos, let alone, which team has no shortage of midfield commander-level players?

After Sammer, Karl Hopfner, who was in charge of the club's finances, also spoke.

"I have talked with representatives of sponsors such as Deutsche Telekom, Audi and Adidas, and they will do their best to support us in introducing these two players. In addition, I have reached a consensus with Yu Baolian and the bank, and they are willing to provide low-interest loans. .”

Karl Hopfner mentioned, are the sponsors of Bayern Munich.

Deutsche Telekom is the shirt advertiser, Audi is the car sponsor and Adidas is the shirt sponsor.

UBahn is the sixth largest bank in Germany, headquartered in Munich, and a sponsor of Bayern Munich.

Rummenigge, who was sitting at the top, nodded after hearing this, "Karl, how much money can you make?"

"150 million euros!" Karl Hopfner said, "but in the next three years, we will definitely have to cut down on food!"

These words changed the expressions of many people present.

It should be said that this price is quite high.

Why do you say that?

Because according to the current situation, the net worth of Neuer and Toni Kroos are both at a high level. At this time, they are under heavy financial pressure. It is difficult to have enough financial resources to operate stars with more than 20 million euros.

But you must know that players such as Ribery, Robben and Lahm are all in their early thirties. Can they persist for three years?

This is something to consider.

If one is not careful within these three years, Bayern Munich is bound to be greatly affected.

Of course, if it is really a last resort, Bayern Munich can also consider a more risky approach, which is to continue to find a bank loan, but this is not in line with Bayern Munich's long-standing business philosophy.

Perhaps it was a little strange to see the faces of everyone present, Karl Hopfner said: "I talked with the marketing department, the joining of these two players and the completion of the blockbuster transfer can greatly stimulate Our fiscal revenue for the next few years, so it shouldn't be that bad."

Sure enough, after saying this, the faces of many people present eased up.

"What about your opinion, Karl?" Rummenigge asked with concern.

Hopfner is an old courtier of Bayern Munich for decades. It was his idea to sell Rummenigge when he was playing football, so he has great prestige in the team and controls the finances. There are many things You have to follow his advice.

"Now the team, fans, sponsors, and even the German society are full of expectations. We must do it!"

Karl Hopfner said it very simply.

"The only suspenseful thing right now is,

How is the attitude from Southampton? "

Summer was obviously also full of expectations and longing for the joining of these two world superstars. After hearing this, he immediately laughed.

"Southampton should not have a big problem. The Saints have always advertised that their team has no non-sale items. Even if they are the star players, as long as they are willing to pay the price, they will sell it. It has been like this for the past few years, and I believe it is the same now. .”

Everyone immediately nodded in unison, which is also the general opinion of European football towards Southampton.

Look at the sales situation of the Saints in the past few years, even if it is the core of the family, even if it is the pillar of the defense, they can sell as soon as they say it.

This has also caused many people to become accustomed to this strategy of the saints, and many people even admire it, because the more the saints are able to sell, the better the results.

"That's good!" Rummenigge also spoke at this time, "Since everyone thinks there is no objection, then we have made a decision, anyway, we have sent a fax to Southampton yesterday, let's wait for their reply first! "

Everyone also felt that they should wait for a reply.

But Summer said, "Or, we should give Yang Huan a call. As long as he nods, the matter will be easy."

Everyone knows that Southampton is the voice of Young Master Yang Huan, as long as he promises, no one can object.

Rummenigge thought about it, and felt that it was the same reason, "Well, I'll..."

But before he finished speaking, the mobile phone placed on the conference table vibrated.

I saw Rummenigge took the mobile phone, leaned over to him, squinted his eyes, hey, it turned out to be Yang Huan's call.

"Hush, Yang Huan!"

Rummenigge's words directly silenced everyone in the audience.

Bayern Munich just made an offer yesterday, Yang Huan called at this time, what does it mean?

Is this too late to agree?

Rummenigge clicked on the connection, and immediately laughed, "Hello, Master Huan, I was thinking of calling you!"

"Call me?" Yang Huan on the other side sneered, "Dear Mr. Rummenigge, why are you so embarrassed?"

Rummenigge heard the sarcasm and sarcasm in Yang Huan's words, and his smile froze immediately, something seemed wrong.

"What's the matter? Master Huan?"

"What's the matter?" Yang Huan looked angry, "I said, Mr. Rummenigge, you seem to have forgotten our previous agreement? Believe it or not, I will give you a hand, so I can remind you?"

Rummenigge was startled, "Master Huan, what do you mean..."

"Don't pretend to be stupid, why did you make an offer to Neuer and Toni Kroos? Why did you make an offer yesterday and it was published in the newspaper early today?"

"Uh...this...Master Huan, listen to my explanation..."

Everyone in the meeting room immediately heard that something was wrong, as if the conversation was not harmonious.

However, seeing Rummenigge in such embarrassment in front of Master Huan, everyone laughed wryly.

"Stop explaining!"

Yang Huan's voice was very loud. Although the hands-free was not turned on, people close to Rummenigge could vaguely hear it.

"You guys are too unkind. We agreed that you have to notify players who are interested in the opponent, but what about you? You sent offers directly and notified the media. What do you mean? Do you think that Bayern Munich has a lot of money? Letter Don't believe me dig you Lewandowski, Gotze, Thomas Muller and Jerome Boateng?"

Rummenigge's face was full of waterfall sweat, look at what Master Huan said, how rich and powerful is it?

But he asked himself, Yang Huan did have this strength and financial resources.

"Master Huan, listen to me, isn't it true that domestic public opinion has put too much pressure on us recently? That's why we had no choice but to send an offer to make a show. Of course, if you Southampton are willing to sell..."

"Don't count on it!" Yang Huan interrupted him coldly, "Neuer and Toni Kroos are impossible to sell, and I can tell you very clearly that they are going to renew their contracts. They are not for sale in our Southampton. No matter how high the price is, we can't sell it unless..."

unless?

And unless?

Rummenigge suddenly had a glimmer of life.

But soon, Master Huan's next words extinguished his hope.

"Unless you have the ability, just buy out their contract!"

Buy out the contract?

Rummenigge's cheeks twitched, how is this possible?

Leaving aside the contract renewal, let’s just talk about the current contract. To buy it out, the two players will have to pay at least 200 million pounds.

That's not even tax!

Yayagope, this is to make Bayern Munich quit.

"Carl!" Yang Huan's tone softened a little at this time, "We are old acquaintances, that's why I called you. If it were someone else, heh, I wouldn't be so polite."

"Yes, yes!" Rummenigge was indeed in a cold sweat just now.

If Master Huan forcibly poachs the pillars of Bayern Munich, given the situation of the Bundesliga and Bayern Munich, it will be impossible to keep people alive.

"About this quotation, you send it as soon as you send it, but we are unlikely to agree. We will hold a special press conference to clarify this point. As for your situation, what you spit out by yourself, you swallow it yourself go back."

Rummenigge smiled wryly again, but he could only nod in agreement, "Okay, I'll take care of it."

But soon, he remembered another thing, "Oh, by the way, Master Huan, then Harvey Martinez..."

Yang Huan was silent on the phone for a few seconds, "Florentino from Real Madrid made an offer to me two days ago, so we need to think about it for the time being!"

consider?

Rummenigge wanted to cry, didn't we talk about it before?

But after thinking about it, it is probably the offer of Neuer and Toni Kroos that angered the Saints.

"However, Carl, our previous preemptive purchase clause is still valid!"

Master Huan's words once again gave Rummenigge a surge of hope.

That's right, isn't there a preemptive purchase clause?

"Okay, in short, this matter is over, you try to downplay it as much as possible, so as not to affect our preparations for the Champions League final!"

Presumably, the reason why Young Master Huan was angry was because of the upcoming competition.

Damn Xipi, how important is this Champions League final?

Anyone would be angry if they gave me such a trick before the competition, wouldn't they?

Rummenigge hung up the phone helplessly, put down the phone, turned his head, and glanced around at the people in the meeting room.

"Carl, what does Southampton say?" Summer asked quickly as he was most concerned about the introduction of the two superstars.

Rummenigge shook his head depressingly, "It's over, Yang Huan let it go, it's not for sale, unless you convince the players to buy out the contract, otherwise, it's impossible to sell!"

"What?" Summer and everyone present were also taken aback.

Just because of these words, there is no hope at all.

If there is still room for maneuver and negotiation, it is generally not so absolute when negotiating.

In particular, Yang Huan personally called to say this, so the weight was even heavier.

"Let's just leave it like this!" Rummenigge was also helpless.

"Sponsors, please arrange for someone to explain. In addition, we will also properly do media work and try to downplay this matter. Southampton will come out to clarify it soon. We will cooperate and it will pass."

This is also a no-brainer.

In fact, from Bayern Munich's several contacts with Neuer and Toni Kross, it can be felt that these two players are not very willing to leave the Saints.

In this case, Southampton refuses to sell, so does Bayern Munich.
