Chapter 230: Spanish football shakes
After the British Sky TV representative announced the news, the presidents of the clubs had a heated discussion.
This is a big thing related to the TV broadcast income of each club.
The British Sky TV representative made it very clear that they cooperated with the Tagore Group to spend a total of 600 million euros to buy La Liga ’s TV broadcasting rights. 600 million euros is really not much to say, but it is worth pondering the sentence of
distributed to participants according to ranking 'The team', the meaning is obvious, in other words, not all teams can participate in La Liga.
If you think about it for a while, you can know that Sky TV is not packaged to buy all the television broadcasts of La Liga. Otherwise, it is impossible to have Real Madrid and Barcelona at the meeting, and Sky TV ca n’t do it at all, because PRo broadcast The contract between Satellite TV and Real Madrid and Barcelona will not end until the summer of 2013, and the contract with Valencia will not be until 2014. There are other teams, such as the Royal Society, and the contract will also be delayed until the summer of 2013. Each club talks about the TV broadcast right separately. Each club has some differences with PRo Broadcast TV. The years are different. The Spanish Football League wants to integrate La Liga ’s TV broadcast right, at least until the summer of 2014. British Sky TV is even less likely to directly purchase all La Liga TV broadcast rights unless they acquire 100% of PRo broadcast TV.
Now Sky TV wants to compete with PRo Broadcast TV on TV broadcasts, and only buys a portion of La Liga's TV broadcast rights in order to own the capital to compete with PRo Broadcast TV in the Spanish football market.
The two TV media are competing with each other, which is what all Spanish clubs want to see.
Regardless of whether the British Sky TV can achieve its goal, all the La Liga club presidents present felt that the trip was worthwhile.
Next, we must seriously consider.
This is a problem that is related to the club's revenue, and is a large part of the revenue.
The 600 million Euro TV broadcast contract does not sound like much, but it can be calculated that there are not many clubs that can actually sign. The first point is that they cannot have a long-term contract with PRo Broadcast TV. In other words, the TV broadcast contract with PRo Broadcast TV will be next year. Only clubs that end in the summer are eligible to sign with British Sky TV.
This excludes the four clubs-Real Madrid, Barcelona, ​​Valencia and the Royal Society.
"No wonder Atletico Madrid did not invite Real Madrid, Barcelona and Valencia President."
Many people suddenly realized.
If it is only to discuss the rights of TV broadcasting, Real Madrid and Barcelona are no longer invited, but it is understandable, but Valencia is also the 'third pole' of Spanish football, but it is not included in the invitation, many people were puzzled before , Now everyone knows.
The president of the Royal Society, Apolibe, became very embarrassed.
Appleby also knows the reason why the Royal Society was invited. Although the TV broadcast contract between the Royal Society and PRo Broadcasting TV was not completed until 2013, the Royal Society is undoubtedly in the category of La Liga small clubs, and is still a very powerful team , Even if they cannot participate in it, they belong to the same camp as the club present.
Appleby is just very annoyed!
Why sign such a long-term contract with PRo Broadcast Satellite TV!
If you want to cooperate with British Sky TV, it is also very important that you can't be relegated to West Division B next season.
British Sky TV purchased the La Liga TV broadcast right, and will definitely not play the West B game. If it is downgraded to the West B contract, it will definitely not be fulfilled.
Vallecano's President Blissa asked the key question, "If we cooperate with Sky TV, what will happen to the team's relegation next season?"
Then he asked, "Will the team upgraded to the second division next season also participate in the TV broadcast?"
Everyone else took it seriously.
This is an issue that everyone cares about.
According to the explanation of the representative of British Sky TV, the La Liga team participating in the contract is between 13 teams and 16 teams, and the three additional teams are in the promotion and demotion.
If only 13 teams participate, the average team can get 46 million euros, which is almost equivalent to the annual gains of Atletico Madrid and Valencia on PRo broadcast TV. For many clubs, it has already Quite impressive.
For example, Seville.
The TV broadcast that Sevilla received last season was only 21 million euros. Villarreal was less than Sevilla, only 19 million euros. With their strength and ranking, they can get even worse. On average, you can get almost 50 million euros.
This is enough for the club to turn a profit.
If 16 teams participate, each team can get an average of 37.5 million euros, and double the cost of TV broadcasts, but it is completely acceptable, but it is better to say 46 million euros.
The representative of British Sky Television came up with a draft contract and gave it to the club presidents and representatives present.
After that, everyone started to take a closer look.
According to the provisions of this draft contract, as long as an agreement can be reached, the relegated team can also get 5 million euros, which does not sound much, but you need to know the signing of the broadcast contract next season. participate.
The 5 million euros were taken in vain.
There is also a clear rule for the participation of the upgraded team next season, which is the guaranteed 30 million euros. No matter how the team upgrades next season, their participation contract can only get 30 million euros. All smiled, they found a sense of superiority in the contract.
The draft TV broadcast contract stipulates that each club will receive a TV broadcast share ranging from 65 million euros to 30 million euros. The specific amount depends on the league ranking and the final settlement of accounts, but the general amount is also Not too much.
As long as the top ten of the league can definitely get more than 40 million euros, the teams outside the top ten have more than 30 million euros.
It is very important that it does not include TV commercials.
The advertising revenue in the TV broadcast share is also a big gain. For example, the advertising share received by Atletico Madrid from PRo broadcast satellite last year was 9.6 million euros. The share of Sky TV in Britain must be more and more.
After reading the draft contract, everyone on the scene has a clear concept. As long as the contract is signed and the league will not be demoted this year, then the next year's TV broadcast share can reach at least 40 million euros.
Everyone in the room looked left and right. They couldn't think of a reason for rejection.
Especially the presidents of Sevilla and Villarreal, who suffered from the unfairness of TV broadcasting rights, decided to sign without even thinking about it.
Afterwards, the Atletico Madrid cEo Hill, who hosted the meeting, stated, "We had no other way before, but now we have a new way out! We can work with the British Sky TV to get the most benefit! This is our interest. , We need to win ... "
Then Xiao Hill gave a passionate speech, which made many people feel very excited.

Atlético Madrid ’s televised conference did not directly reach an agreement, but the clubs have already stated that they will sign the contract and have finalized it to be signed on January 1 next year.
The buffer period of more than ten days is also for the clubs to digest the latest news.
In fact, the signing of new contracts is not all beneficial, but there are risks. The Spanish Football League and PRo Broadcast Satellite TV cannot sit back and watch the British Sky TV and Tagore Group join forces to split the big cake broadcast by La Liga.
PRo Broadcast TV only has contracts with Real Madrid, Barcelona, ​​Valencia and Royal Society. These four teams account for more than half of the La Liga commercial value. However, if other teams cooperate with British Sky TV, it means that In the games played by other teams at home, they have no right to live broadcast. At that time, the interests of PRo Broadcast Satellite TV will be greatly damaged. At that time, not only PRo Broadcast Satellite TV, but also Real Madrid and Barcelona ’s TV broadcast income will also be greatly affected. Big impact.
The Spanish Football League will not do so.
When the news that British Sky TV wanted to buy out the La Liga TV broadcasting rights came out, Spanish football ushered in an earthquake. This news occupied the front page of almost all media before Christmas.
Clubs stood up to condemn La Liga's sharing system and supported the practice of British Sky TV. Opponents also stood up and criticized the practice of other clubs.
Supporters say that--
"This is to safeguard the interests of the respective clubs!"
"There will be more competition to allow La Liga to develop! La Liga should usher in a moment of breaking the ridge-break!"
"We can look forward to the rise of La Liga clubs!"
"Spanish football is ushering in a big reform! This is a kind of football revolution that changes in a better direction-life!"
The voice of the opponents is also high-
"This is split Spanish football!"
"To watch La Liga in the future, to be on two TV stations?"
"Why do you want to cooperate with the British company in La Liga TV broadcast? The webcast is also sold to Tagore Group? It is incredible! Why not sell it directly to Atletico Madrid!"
"We want to defend complete Spanish football!"
The big argument started.
The Spanish Football League will not use public opinion weapons alone. They used two days to quickly introduce a policy prohibiting La Liga clubs from selling television rights alone.
Unfortunately, no one buys their policies.
The Spanish Football League is not a Spanish government. They are private groups, serving the entire Spanish league, otherwise they will not be so inclined to Real Madrid and Barcelona, ​​because the two clubs can bring enough benefits .
If the Spanish Football League wants to adopt a policy, most professional clubs need to agree, and the La Liga clubs are the top priority. It can be said that as long as a club in La Liga does not agree, the new policy of the Spanish Football League cannot be passed.
The policies that they forcefully passed did not have legal benefits.
Then the Spanish Football Federation, in conjunction with the Spanish Football Association, took Sky TV and Tagore Group to court to prevent the two from collaborating to 'split Spanish football'.
Unfortunately, the efficiency of the Spanish government is not so high.
The Spanish government does not serve the Spanish Football League. Such a lawsuit will require two or three months of preliminary preparation. Even if the two sides face off in court, the Spanish Football League is unable to prevent other La Liga clubs from signing with British Sky TV. And, according to the analysis of professional lawyers, the Spanish Football League cannot win the lawsuit, because there were no clear regulations in the past, and it is almost impossible to complete the new regulations now, at least until 2014, in other words, In the past two days, the clubs want to sell TV broadcasting rights to anyone, and the Spanish Football League has no way ~ EbookFREE.me ~ The only thing broadcast TV can do is that it does not cooperate with British Sky TV in business. , And they ca n’t do anything legally.
At this stage, the Spanish Football League is very difficult to do, because they are about to usher in the presidential election. The professional league is composed of the La Liga 20 team and the West B 22 team. The chairman of each club is a member of the committee.
As the president of the Spanish Football League, Tebas definitely does not want to offend many La Liga clubs, because the election of the Spanish Football League President requires the voting of the members of the committee, and the support of many La Liga clubs can almost determine the name of the next president.
But Tebas has no way.
After the big news came out, he certainly had no hope of continuing to serve as chairman of the Spanish Football League.
If the cooperation of other La Liga clubs with British Sky TV and Tagore Wan Group is reached, then many La Liga clubs will definitely vote for Atletico Madrid ’s new Hill, who is participating in the presidential campaign, because Atletico Madrid ’s leadership has brought real to other clubs. Interests.
On the contrary, Tebas prevented the agreement from being reached, and there is still a chance.
At that time, other La Liga clubs want to improve the distribution of TV broadcasts, it depends on the face of the Spanish Football League.
For this opportunity, Tebas also has to fight for it.
In the Spanish media public opinion, the work of the Atletico Madrid Club is not over, and the winter transfer work must be handled before Christmas. The winter transfer window will open in January, and many European media have begun to report winter transfer news.
Atletico Madrid does not need to add any players.
The team's lineup has been very stable, with sufficient players on all fronts.
Instead, Wan Sheng considered removing some players ... (to be continued.)
