"Oh my god, these guys, one or two, really think that we are a star processing factory, and they are all addicted to it."
At St.
Mary's Stadium in Southampton, England, Yang Huan still looked aggrieved after putting down the phone.
That's too much.
Is there any?
I finally made it to the Champions League final, and you two just came over to poach me.
"Master Huan, what do Bayern Munich say?"
Peter Kenyon asked with concern.
"How else can I say that they have been trained like grandsons by me, what else do they dare to say?"
Peter Kenyon and Ron Gurley looked at each other, their faces dripping with sweat.
Our young master Huan is so tough and mighty.
Looking at the entire European football world, how many of them can train Bayern Munich's Rummenigge like this?
Of course, this matter is indeed the result of Bayern Munich's management not being kind enough.
Just a few days ago in Southampton, the two parties had a good talk and agreed not to poach each other.
But as soon as they returned to Germany, they were immediately confused by the fans and the media.
They didn't even say a word and just came.
Quotation fax.
What's even more disgusting is that they actually let the media know about it If Southampton doesn't handle this matter more forcefully, what will Saints fans think?
Is it possible that you really think that Southampton is a star processing factory for all European teams?
Oh, if you have money, you can buy it if you want.
"Peter, we can't continue like this," Yang Huan said with a solemn expression, frowning.
Peter Kenyon was also thinking about this question.
After hearing this, he kept nodding, "Yes, we must adjust."
"In the past few years, we have been selling people, buying low and selling high.
This is not a big problem in itself.
It is also a sustainable development strategy for the long-term operation of a team, but our current situation is obviously different from the past."
Ron Gurley's view is the same as that of Yang Huan and Peter Kenyon.
"We used to be a low-level league team and a newly promoted team from the Premier League, so we couldn't retain people.
Even if we wanted to force them to stay, it would be difficult for us to retain stars who are eager to prove themselves on a bigger stage."
This is a very important reason why Southampton has insisted on selling people in the past few years.
Just like Neymar and Gareth Bale, they are going to top teams like Barcelona and Real Madrid.
Can Southampton keep them?
"But now, our situation is no longer what it used to be.
We are now stepping on the corpses of Real Madrid and Bayern Munich to reach the Champions League final.
We have defended the league title in the Premier League for two consecutive seasons.
We already have enough confidence. , competing with powerful teams such as Manchester United, Arsenal, Chelsea and Manchester City.”
"Even if we really have to compete with top clubs like Real Madrid, Barcelona and Bayern Munich for players, we may not lose.
Therefore, it is necessary for us to retain players who are suitable for our long-term development strategy."
"Well said."
After hearing what Ron Gurley said, Yang Huan praised loudly and vigorously.
"In the past few years, we have been selling people.
That is because we know that even if we don't sell, we can't keep them.
But it's different now.
As long as we want to keep them, we can definitely keep them."
Whether in terms of finances or team performance, Southampton is now a first-tier team.

The only thing lacking is years of accumulation.
But everyone who is familiar with Southampton knows that the Saints' current finances are very healthy and stable, especially with the completion of the new stadium, the whole world has felt Southampton's courage.
Preliminary estimates indicate that the Saints Fan Club and the new stadium could bring in approximately £400 million in revenue to Southampton each year.
This amount of money is enough to push Southampton into the top three in the European wealthy rankings.
Not to mention the share of Premier League broadcast fees, the share of Champions League matches, and sponsorship fees from major sponsors.
Add it all up and Southampton won't lose to any team, including Real Madrid and Manchester United.
It is also because of this that the Saints have enough confidence to retain their players.
"Ron" Yang Huan thought for a while and made up his mind.
"Master Huan" "Look back and prepare immediately.
We have to start renewing contracts with players, especially players like Toni Kroos, Neuer, Hazard and Suarez.
They are all treasures in our team and we must keep them."
"Got it" Ron Gurley was also excited.
If this group of players stays, Southampton's combat effectiveness will not be much weaker.
More importantly, the Saints want to tell the world through the contract extension that from now on, the Saints will no longer be a team where any wealthy team can poach players as long as they have money.
From now on, Southampton will use the stars it has cultivated to break into the ranks of the rich.
Even becoming the strongest super wealthy family in Europe However, it is easy to say but troublesome to do.
For example, if Yang Huan wants to renew his contract, he will need to increase his salary and break the current team's salary structure.
This is something that must be done carefully, and it is really a critical step that must be done again and again.
Because once the salary structure is broken, if it is not controlled well, it may bring down the team anytime and anywhere.
Although the Saints' finances are very good now, once the salary gets out of control, they will be ruined.
But this step is imperative.
The reason is simple, just look at Arsenal.
Over the past few years, the Gunners have been selling their captains year after year, each one selling out more happily than the last.
As a result, in the end, the entire team broke up.
In other words, Arsenal still has Wenger, who ensures that the team firmly occupies the top four in the league every year and reaches the Champions League.
Otherwise, the Gunners would have long ago declined.
As for the nonsense about the gunman having no money, that is intoxicating.
There is still a large amount of cash lying in Arsenal's account.
This is called having no money.
In the final analysis, you can enter the Champions League lying down, so why sign in?
No, the situation was just about the same last season.
As soon as Southampton and Tottenham Hotspur emerged, Arsenal immediately had money.
Higuain, Ozil and others came.
But what about the results?
Still in the top four Therefore, Yang Huan also had to consider that if Southampton continues to sell like this and let others take it away, they may become the next Arsenal at some point.
"By the way, Peter, how is things going with Sun Yue?"
Yang Huan asked with concern.
How to use the wind of this Champions League final to establish Southampton and Atletico Madrid's first-team status in one fell swoop is what Yang Huan attaches most to now.
Today's professional football does not mean that you win by playing well on the football field and defeating your opponent. it's too simple Liverpool performed the Miracle in Istanbul back then, and even reached the Champions League final again seven years later, but now The Red Army is still a loser why It’s because Liverpool FC’s business operations are so poor Looking back at Manchester United during the Peter Kenyon and Ron Gurley era, and later Chelsea, the Champions League final was a very important publicity platform and helped these two teams lay a very good commercial foundation.
Needless to say, Manchester United's Red Devils business empire.
Even Chelsea, after the UEFA Champions League final in 2008, the team's commercial income has made considerable progress.
However, Abramovich later committed suicide and fired him first.
Peter Kenyon and later the sacking of Ron Gurley led to a significant reduction in Chelsea's commercial income.
Therefore, this time Yang Huan attaches great importance to the Champions League final, even as important as the World Cup final.
Master Huan took it seriously, so the people below naturally didn't dare to be careless.

"Two days ago, Miracle Media submitted a feasibility plan to us and Atletico Madrid respectively.
We all think it is quite good.
Next, we will implement this plan."
"Yeah."
Yang Huan still trusts their abilities.
At this moment, there was a knock on the office door, and then I saw the club's executive chairman, Nicola Cortez, opening the door and coming in with a piece of paper in his hand, heading straight for Master Huan.
"Master Huan, this is the guest we plan to invite to the Champions League final.
Take a look."
Every team participating in the Champions League finals often has a tradition, which is to invite a series of guests to form a large cheering group.
Generally speaking, invited guests include sponsor representatives and players' relatives and friends, but the most eye-catching ones are undoubtedly former stars or former celebrities.
The size of the cheering team is often talked about by many media and fans, and is even linked to the influence and heritage of a club.
For example, the size of Real Madrid's cheering team was astonishing.
Not to mention anything else, former superstars such as Raul, Roberto Carlos, Guti, Hierro, Ronaldo, Zidane, Figo, Beckham and others immediately became popular as soon as they appeared.
Of course, there will also be some teams that are more low-key.
After all, all the expenses for inviting these celebrities to watch and cheer are paid for by the clubs themselves.
For many small teams, the expenses, food and accommodation for the cheering team are also quite large.
A fee.
Southampton is now rich and wealthy, so it is not short of money.
Yang Huan took over the list from Nicolas Cortez, "Nicolas, please make arrangements first.
All 1,000 members of the Saints fan club will be there to cheer.
Prince William, his wife, and Prince Harry will also be there.
So you must make arrangements.”
After hearing this, Nicola Cortez nodded immediately to show that he remembered.
"In addition, I want to arrange for a group of youth team players in the team to also go to the away game.
Regardless of the victory or defeat, I hope they can advance and retreat together with the club."
"Okay, I will arrange it."
Yang Huan nodded and then looked down at the list.
I didn't know this, but when I looked at it, I didn't expect that there were quite a lot of people on the list of Southampton's cheering group.
Because the European leagues are generally over by the time of the Champions League final, including Barcelona's Neymar, Real Madrid's Carvajal, Gareth Bale and Vidal, as well as players like Stroman, Schneiderlin, Adam La Rana, Benatia and other stars are there.
In addition to these people, players such as Lambert, Chamberlain, Jose Fonte, Kevin Davis and other players who never left Southampton during their lowest years are also listed among them.
This made Yang Huan couldn't help but nod and gave Nicola Cortez an appreciative look.
Although the banker is not as good as Peter Kenyon and Ron Gurley in terms of business marketing and club management, he is indeed quite good in terms of financial and tax control, as well as the daily affairs of the club.
Just, a little bit more low-key "I didn't expect that we could get quite a lot of celebrities," Yang Huan said with a slight smile.
At the end of the list are all the famous players who played before Yang Huan took over Southampton.
Some of them Yang Huan can't even pronounce their names, and some are more familiar to him, such as England full-back Bridge.
Yes, he is the tragic character in Terry's wife scandal.
Unexpectedly, he is also from Southampton.
There is also Peter Shilton, the legendary goalkeeper of England in the past and a legend of the Saints.
The other biggest names are Kevin Keegan and Alan Shearer, both of whom are banner figures in English football.
When he saw this list, Yang Huan couldn't help but laugh.
We have some great stars in Southampton, don’t we:
