Chapter 516: A steady stream of champions

Woodward hung up the phone and looked at Kintag.
Gintag asked expectantly, "How about, is Porto ready to sell Sandro?"
Woodward smiled bitterly: "Chairman Porto said that no one in the entire club except himself is for sale-provided that the money is in place."
"It's really their style of doing things." Jintaige sneered. "Did they offer a price?"
"No price. They said that there are still a few clubs asking Porto for Sandro prices, so the club needs to discuss it again, determine the final price, and let us know in recent days." Woodward Some disdain, "I think they are purely nonsense, just a young Brazilian, how could there be so many clubs fancy, this is definitely their price increase."
But I didn't expect Jintaige to shake his head: "Ed, as far as I know, there are really clubs interested in Sandro, maybe someone has already bid, maybe."
Woodward hesitated: "Really? What do you think Sandro's final transaction price would be?"
Kintag thought back to the parallel worlds of later generations. In the summer of 2015, Serie A overlord Juventus finally bought Sandro from Porto, when they spent a total of 26 million euros. In all fairness, this price is fair compared to the value of players of the same grade.
Gintag thought for a while and told Woodward: "I think the final transaction price is around 30 million."
"So expensive?" Woodward murmured.
"The price is really not that expensive," Gintag explained. "Look at Alonso right now. He was a substitute for Evra last season. Last summer, Mourinho was preparing for a high price. Buy him. If we really want to sell Alonso at that time, there is absolutely no problem selling 40 million euros. "
"Alonso can sell 40 million? So exaggerated?" Woodward's eyes flashed, wondering what he was thinking.
Kintag warned him: "Ed, our team is developing healthily and benign now, you don't want to rely on selling players for profit."
"What if the price is high enough?" Woodward asked with a smile.
Jintaige shook his head and said seriously: "Ed, if this player's position in the team is not so important, and we have someone who can replace him, and it must be of a reasonable price, then there is still negotiation, otherwise it is absolutely not Probably. Especially the main players, it must not be sold! "
Woodward waved his hand and said with a smile: "Tiger, don't be too nervous, I just ask casually. Now the club's economy is very good, there is no need to sell players to live, otherwise the boss will not take out all at once A transfer fee of 100 million euros comes. As long as you can ensure that the team can continue to win the championship. "
"Continuous? The word makes me very stressed." Jin Taige shrugged.
Woodward detailed with him: "I'll calculate for you. If you can rank in the top four of the Premier League each season and make it to the top four in the Champions League, then our annual bonus income and TV broadcast share can be Get about 300 million euros, and summer business activities, club business endorsements, jersey advertising sponsorship, etc., can also get more than 100 million euros per year, the remaining sales of jerseys, match tickets and other related income, can also get It ’s more than 100 million euros. I just calculated an approximate account for you, this is our income status. But the operating cost of the club is also very high every year, and the maintenance of the stadium, the salary of the players, etc., almost take up Most income. "
"Wait, wait," Jintaige interrupted him. "Ed, I don't have a cold on these numbers, can you tell me simpler."
Woodward slaps: "Simply speaking, in the current situation of Manchester United, you have to reach at least the semi-finals in the Premier League and the Champions League every season, it is best to win one or two championships, and only to maintain a strong level at the competitive level, Only then can we continue to be healthy at the commercial level. For the boss, making money is the number one priority. Can I understand that?
Jin Taige nodded: "Of course I can understand that all bosses are the same. It is not profitable to be early, it is normal to put the interests first."
Woodward gave him a white look: "Tiger, can you say this slightly euphemistically ... in all fairness, our boss has been pretty good over the years, at least he can invest a lot in the transfer market, But the investment and the return are directly proportional, so if you want to always get sufficient transfer funds, you need to win more championships in terms of performance. "
"Tiger, I talked to you today because the boss talked to me about the team's performance a few days ago and asked me how far we can go this season."
"Oh? How did you answer?" Jin Taige looked at him with interest.
Woodward said angrily: "I wanted to say that I wasn't completely sure, but looking at the boss' eager look ~ EbookFREE.me ~ I took it back again; but if I let me pack tickets in front of the boss, then It ’s not realistic, so I finally told him that your lead this season will be at least better than last season. "
Kintag nodded: "Ed, rest assured. If I let you make a championship promise now, that's my bragging, but I promise this season will definitely make a breakthrough than last season, I'm sure!"
"Okay, so I'm relieved."
Leaving Woodward's office, Jin Taige went to the youth team training base and turned around. McGuinness saw that Jin Taige was coming, still with a grudge on his face: "It's all because you rented out my main force, It's been difficult to play recently. "
Jin Taige smiled: "I see the recent youth league standings, we still remain at the top of the list, 6 points higher than the second-placed Chelsea youth team."
"That's because the two guys did well," McGuinness pointed at the training ground, and a smile of relief appeared on his face. "It shouldn't take a few years, and the two of them should be taken away by you. . "
"It's a good thing. It's our responsibility to help them go out from here to a bigger stage."
Jin Taige looked at the lively young people on the field. He remembered that when he was in the youth team, he felt a little emotional for a while.
The two talked, McGuinness said: "In the youth league this season, we and Chelsea have always performed well. It is estimated that the final championship must be one of our two teams."
Kintag praised: "Chelsea's youth training system is top in the whole of England, and they also have a lot of young rookies."
McGuinness asked: "Tiger, I think this year's Premier League is also the rhythm of our championship against Chelsea?"
