Chapter 438: Buy One Get One Free


Pinizahavi appeared in Saint-Etienne, France, sitting opposite Romeyer.

The Israeli looked at the Frenchman in front of him with a kind smile, and the joke that Master Huan said yesterday came to mind.

Three pieces of advice from smart men: don’t play mahjong with your mother-in-law; don’t go to bed with a woman who has more ideas than you; don’t start a company with your best friend, of which the last one is the most serious.

At this moment, Saint-Etienne chairman Romeyer sitting in front of him is a typical example.

In French football, when it comes to Saint-Etienne, most people feel strange about the team's dual-chairman configuration.

Interestingly, the two presidents, Romeyer and Caiazzo, both hold 50% of the club's shares.

Before acquiring the club in 2004, they were very good friends.

However, after they joined hands to acquire Saint-Etienne, the two had conflicts one after another.

In the end, not only were they no longer friends, but Became an enemy.

It has only been in the past two years that the situation has improved, but the contradictions between the two sides are still obvious.

The division of labor between the two parties is now very clear.

Romeyer is responsible for the team's sports affairs, finance and personnel appointments, including the head coach.

Caiazzo is responsible for the daily operation and supervision of the team.

Anyone who is familiar with Saint-Etienne knows that if you go to Caiazzo to discuss a transfer, and you have an agreement here, but Romeyer immediately comes out to object, it will definitely not work out.

And if you want to discuss business cooperation, it is useless to ask Romeyer.

Caiazzo has a veto power.

Pinizahavi knew this very well, so he appeared in front of Romeyer.

"I am here this time on behalf of Mr.

Yang Huan."

Pinizahavi immediately mentioned his backer.

Yang Huan, who in the whole world doesn’t know her?

"We have just completed the acquisition of Monaco" Romeyer was slightly surprised.

He had received intelligence before that Monaco had been acquired by foreign capital.

But he didn't expect that behind him was Southampton's Yang Huan.

The Chinese seems to be following what Abramovich did, but becoming more secretive.

"While sorting out Monaco's finances, we discovered that Saint-Etienne had a transfer debt of two million euros that had expired.

Therefore, Mr.

Yang Huan entrusted me to find out about the situation."

After saying that, Pinizahavi even took out an authorization letter.

Romeyer quickly took it with both hands, glanced at it casually, and politely returned it to Pinizahavi.

Although the reputation of the Israelis in European football circles is not very good, they are at least considered number one and cannot be cheating.

Romeyer said with a smile: "Mr.

Zahavi, there is indeed a balance of two million euros, but we have already communicated with Monaco beforehand.

Besides, you also know what happens in the transfer market. , We are a small team.

We have no players to sell in the transfer market this summer, and we don’t dare to introduce them.”

After a pause, the Frenchman smiled awkwardly.

"With two million euros, can we delay it for a little longer?"

Of course Pinizahavi knows that the French Ligue 1 teams are indeed quite poor.

For a team like Saint-Etienne, if the players are not sold, they do not have enough funds to introduce players.

Their biggest income in a season is the Ligue 1 broadcast fee share, plus match day income.

You can run a team without spending any money Therefore, two million euros is a drop in the bucket for the European giants, but for them, it is a huge sum of money.

"According to the agreement between the two teams when Rufelt transferred last year, the payment was to be made in three installments within one year, but Saint-Etienne only paid the first installment, and the second and third installments have been paid to this day.

Default, I’m afraid this is no longer a delay.”

When Pinizahavi spoke, his back was straight and his tone was a bit serious.

After all, our side holds the truth.

Think about the time when you took advantage of Monaco's relegation to make trouble for them and tried every possible means to poach them.

Okay, now Monaco is falling apart by you, but you even owe the transfer fee.

Is this ridiculous?

Romeyer was a little embarrassed.

Ruffel was a local goalkeeper trained by Monaco and a popular candidate for the national team.

He was also young.

If Saint-Etienne hadn't strongly lured him back then, he might not have been able to bring him in.

However, when he saw the other party's tough attitude, Romeyer complained a little.

Who is Pinizahavi?

They have been keeping a low profile in recent years, but in the past few years, they were all the most powerful figures in European football.

It's too late for him to praise such a person, yet he dares to offend him Not to mention that there is a rich man named Young Master Yang Huan standing behind him.

Pinizahavi looked at Romeyer's expression and knew something.

"Saint-Etienne finished seventh in Ligue 1 last season, and the broadcast fee was divided into at least 30 million euros, which should be enough money."

Romeyer's face turned into a bitter melon, "Mr.

Zahavi, you don't know the difficulties of our small team.

Running a team now is free of money."

Although Saint-Etienne plays football in France, there is always some expense when traveling to away games.

There should be a round trip fee, right?

Club staff need to be paid, right?

None of this costs money Three to four thousand euros is simply not enough for a small team.

Pinizahavi heard this and laughed, "You and Caiazo are both rich people.

Two million euros is not a small amount, but it is not much for you.

One million euros for each of you." " Having said this, Pinizahavi deliberately paused, "Or, I invite Caiazzo to come and talk.

He should be able to afford two million euros."

"No" Romeyer shook his head almost without hesitation.

Just kidding, the two have been at odds for four or five years, and now they have finally reached an amelioration of the situation.

How can such a thing happen again?

At the very beginning, Caiazzo's shareholding was 52%.

After Romeyer took over, the two parties negotiated for the shares many times and finally reached a consensus.

Each party held 50%.

Owned by Saint-Etienne.

If Caiazzo is asked to pay again now, it will definitely be exchanged for shares.

By then, his shares will not be as good as Caiazzo, and he will step on his head in the future.

As for the two of them offering one million euros each, that's not impossible, it's just that Pinizahavi knew it.

The two people's original purchase of Saint-Etienne was originally a debt-funded purchase.

Otherwise, they would have only spent a little money to purchase Saint-Etienne, and they would have needed two good friends to come together to purchase it.

Over the years, they have been paying off their debts, a bit like the Glazer family buying Manchester United.

However, Saint-Etienne is not as famous as Manchester United When the Israelis didn't speak, Romeyer felt extremely stressed.

There is no way, people are poor and short of breath.

"Mr.

Zahavi, why don't you talk to Mr.

Yang Huan?

Or, just like this, our Saint-Etienne will serve as a satellite for Southampton and help the Saints train young players for free.

You guys can do it for a year, you know." " Of course Pinizahavi understands.

To build satellites these days, you have to give some subsidies a year, ranging from tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands to even hundreds of thousands of euros.

After hearing this, Pinizahavi first sighed deeply and then shook his head heavily.

"It's not that I won't help you, but you don't know what Master Huan is.

He does things cleanly and neatly.

He doesn't like to be sloppy, especially when others owe him.

Even if he really wants to cooperate, he has to pay the transfer fee first. " Romeyer sounded depressed.

If he wasn't really afraid that the other party would complain to the Ligue 1 league, he would have simply replied, "If we don't have money, can we eat human flesh?"

But he doesn't dare to say this "Ahem" Pinizahavi sighed again, "Well, it's not that I won't help you, I'll give you a move."

"Well, okay, you say, you say" Romeyer immediately became excited.

Pinizahavi looked around as if he were a thief.

"I have a good relationship with Southampton's scouts and have heard them mention your players before."

"Who?"

Romeyer's heart tightened.

The Israelis had been paying close attention to Romeyer's expression, and he was secretly amused as he was as shrewd as a fox.

"Kurt Zouma, and Aubameyang" "Ah" Romeyer was immediately stunned.

Kurt Zouma is a product of Saint-Etienne's youth training and a very promising local talented central defender.

He is only seventeen years old now.

As for Aubameyang, the Gabon player is now 23 years old.

He was originally on loan from AC Milan from Saint-Etienne, but half a year ago, the team saw that he performed well and bought him outright.

The buyout price is very cheap, only one million euros.

Pinizahavi had already planned this.

Master Huan originally wanted Kurt Zouma by name, saying that this talented Saint-Etienne central defender was worth two million euros, so he used it to make up the number.

But Pinizahavi felt that just one Zuma could not show his ability.

Therefore, he took matters into his own hands and asked for one more Aubameyang.

Aubameyang is the main forward of Saint-Etienne.

He has very good speed.

In the past season, he scored 16 goals in 36 games.

He is very famous.

Moreover, this player has also been loaned by AC Milan.

Monaco has only one season, so there is no problem in integrating.

Speaking of geniuses, Aubameyang can be considered a genius, otherwise, AC Milan would not like him.

Presumably Master Huan wouldn’t mind a few more Buy one get one free, Master Huan will definitely be happy While Pinizahavi was happily thinking about how to claim credit, Romeyer was in a dilemma.

On one side is two million euros in cash, on the other side are Kurt Zouma and Aubameyang.

How to choose Pinizahavi looked at Romeyer's expression and decided to add more firewood, so he sighed and stood up directly.

"Forget it, forget it, just pretend I didn't say it."

Romeyer panicked as soon as he saw the Israeli stand up.

"I will go back to Monaco now and talk to Master Huan.

I will not interfere in this matter.

You can handle it yourself."

Romeyer was dumbfounded.

This is to let Yang Huan take action himself Darling, what kind of person is Yang Huan?

The British media have said that millions and tens of millions are thrown at people at every turn, and he sees two million euros in his eyes.

If you are annoyed by such a trivial matter, and if you get angry, you directly sue the Ligue 1 League, how can you deal with it?

Besides, I still want to climb high and cooperate with Southampton in youth training.

Thinking of this, Romeyer gritted his teeth and stamped his feet, yes, two is two.

"Mr.

Free novels bring you joy and joy ---> storyskyline.net

Zahavi, it's a deal."

At this moment, his heart is bleeding Kurt Zouma and Aubameyang are currently unknown in European football, but they have a good reputation in Ligue 1.

Even if they are sold, both players are worth at least more than 2 million euros.

Forget it, Aubameyang was only worth one million euros half a year ago, so let’s assume Zouma was sold for one million euros.

Although I lost a little, if I could get in touch with Yang Huan, then Thinking of this, Romeyer immediately grabbed Pinizahavi and asked him to say a few more good words to promote the youth training cooperation between Southampton and Saint-Etienne.

Pinizahavi smiled and nodded in agreement, saying that he would definitely help with the conversation.

As for whether it will work or not, who knows:
