Chapter 329 Everything has changed! Summer transfer, Atletico Madrid is taking action! [A big chapter with ten thousand words, please beg me to subscribe]

Returning to La Liga, we ushered in the 30th round.

Barcelona defeated Huelva 1-0 at home.

Real Madrid defeated Valladolid 2-0 at home.

Valencia narrowly defeated Sporting Gijon 3-2 away from home.

Atletico Madrid defeated Deportivo La Coruña 2-1 in the away game with goals from Torres and Messi.

Super Depor did not score until the 87th minute.

Atletico Madrid's overall situation was decided at that time.

……

In mid-week, in the second leg of the Champions League quarter-finals, Atletico Madrid challenged Porto away.

The 4-0 home win in the first round has completely sentenced Porto to death, and it is basically impossible for the Portuguese Super League team to reverse the situation.

Unless Atletico Madrid suddenly suffered a big collapse in the away game.

But everyone knows that this possibility is slim.

Especially when Atletico have been so consistent and dominant all season.

Ferreira tried to launch a wave of attacks at the beginning, but Atletico Madrid was playing away from home and wanted a stable start. They did not let Porto take the rhythm. Instead, the Sheets took advantage of Porto's eagerness to score and scored several times in a row. Threatening counterattack.

Among them, Messi also threatened Helton's goal with a free kick from 20 meters away.

But unfortunately, it missed slightly and failed to score.

Atletico Madrid's mentality is relatively stable, they are not in a hurry, and they control the ball and rhythm in an orderly manner.

Porto hopes to use the mobility of Argentine forward Lopez and the physical advantage of Brazilian center Hulk to attack Atletico Madrid's defense.

But it is a pity that after Yang Hao experienced the first round of the game, he used Pepe to mark Hulk.

In front of Pepe, whose physical strength is also explosive, Hulk really can't take advantage.

The two teams were playing back-and-forth at the Dragon Stadium, but no one was able to create an absolute chance.

Until the 28th minute, after Marcelo cooperated with David Silva on the left, he passed the ball to Iniesta. Xiaobai knocked again and passed to the right periphery of the top area of ​​the arc. At the feet of Messi.

As soon as the Argentinian got the ball, Porto's players pressed forward as if facing a formidable enemy.

After Messi stopped the ball, he raised his foot very easily and freely.

After the ball was picked up by Messi, it fell to the middle of the top area of ​​the arc and the penalty area line.

Drogba used his body to hold Porto's central defender Rolando, and headed the ball to Kaka who came up from the back row.

The Brazilian didn't stop the ball, facing Drogba's header, he volleyed directly in the air.

The ball drilled into Porto's goal at great speed.

Kaka scored a very beautiful volley to open the scoring for Atletico Madrid!

1 is better than 0!

Subsequently, the two sides went back and forth, but still failed to create opportunities.

Especially in the second half, Yang Hao began to make substitutions. Atletico Madrid also focused on possession of the ball and no longer actively planned attacks.

In the end, the score of 1-0 remained until the end of the game.

Atletico Madrid defeated Porto away from home with Kaka's goal, knocking Porto out of the Champions League with a total score of 5-0.

……

Atletico Madrid eliminated Porto 5-0!

It quickly became the talk of the world after the game.

The result was not unexpected, especially after the first leg.

What really attracted the attention of the media and fans was Atletico Madrid's strong dominance in these two games.

Porto is not a weakling, and their ability to break into the Champions League quarterfinals is enough to prove their strength.

But in front of Atletico Madrid, Porto has little ability to resist, and this is the most fearful thing.

Messi scored a hat trick within half an hour of the first leg.

In the second round away from home, Porto, who had many South American players and good skills, was completely outpaced by Atletico Madrid in terms of passing and controlling the ball. This made everyone feel Atletico Madrid's advantage in passing and controlling the ball.

From La Liga to the Champions League, Atletico Madrid has been too stable this season.

"Atletico Madrid's stability makes all competitors despair!"

They believe that Yang Hao's team has performed very steadily throughout the season, with occasional ups and downs in form, but there are always players who can step forward and help the team reverse its predicament.

This is the scariest thing about the bed sheet army.

After Atletico Madrid eliminated Porto, Manchester United also eliminated Klinsmann's Bayern Munich in two rounds of games, first 2-2 away, 1-1 at home, and 3-3.

England and Germany are mortal enemies of each other. When the Premier League meets the Bundesliga, it is always like a volcano hitting the earth.

Both games were draws, but they were both fiercely fought, with both sides fighting to the death.

In the end, Ferguson's Manchester United relied on their away goal advantage to eliminate Bayern Munich 3-3.

Klinsmann's coaching of Bayern this season has been troubled.

The Bundesliga is still 3 points behind Wolfsburg, but there are still 7 rounds in the league and there are still opportunities.

But they were eliminated from both the German Cup and the Champions League, especially the German Cup, where they lost 2-4 to Bayer Leverkusen, which was really ugly.

As early as Yang Hao's previous life, he had seen some analysis about Klinsmann, and Klinsmann was also mentioned in player autobiographies.

As a legend of German football, it goes without saying that Klinsmann is famous in European football.

Yang Hao's evaluation of Klinsmann in his previous life was not high, or even quite low, but after coaching himself, he began to realize that the biggest problem with Klinsmann was not whether his coaching ability was high or not, but His ideas are different from German football and even the football concepts of many countries now.

The most common saying Yang Hao has heard is: Klinsmann is not a head coach, but a project manager.

What does that mean?

He is responsible for being in a high-level position, assigning work to the team, and assigning various tasks to different people in the team.

For example, training and tactics are left to Loew and Flick.

Fans in 2023 will be familiar with these two guys.

Routine internal and external affairs are left to team leader Bierhoff.

Moreover, he also actively tried to introduce advanced training equipment and concepts from the United States.

These have allowed him to taste the sweetness of the German national team and receive a lot of praise.

To some extent, his coaching of the German national team was successful.

Many people will say: No, that is the contribution of Loew, Flick and others.

This statement is like an employee pointing at the boss and scolding, why do I earn more than me when I work 996 every day and don't do anything?

As a project manager, the success of the German team itself is Klinsmann's success.

Many people even say that the contributions of Loew and Flick are in themselves a credit to Klinsmann.

Yang Hao is also a project manager to a certain extent. He is even worse than Klinsmann because he can't play football.

But what is Klinsmann's biggest problem?

This guy is a bit careless about coaching.

In other words, he couldn't figure out why he was successful.

Yang Hao still clearly remembers seeing an interview with Bayern senior executives in his previous life.

Probably when Klinsmann was coaching Hertha Berlin, Bayern's Rummenigge mentioned this incident when Klinsmann coached Bayern in 08. He believed that it was something he had committed during his 30 years in charge of Bayern. Biggest mistake.

What's wrong?

Rummenigge believed that Klinsmann's coaching philosophy was not suitable for Bayern at the time, and Bayern should arrange a top German coach around him to assist and help Klinsmann.

This is what Rummenigge said himself.

In other words, when the Bayern boss reflected afterwards, he also concluded the reasons.

Klinsmann is a very good project manager, but the problem is, he needs a good team.

When Bayern failed to find suitable "Loew", "Flick" and "Bierhoff" for him, Klinsmann's routine in the German national team became unusable.

In fact, maybe Klinsmann himself was not aware of this problem at the time.

He may even feel that he can replicate the success of the German national team by just finding a few more partners.

But who could have imagined that he encountered Waterloo at Bayern.

This just confirms the saying: The most difficult thing for people is to see themselves clearly.

Examples like Klinsmann abound.

In his previous life, Yang Hao insisted on committing suicide when he started writing books. Although he wrote well, he insisted on writing about the national football team.

Why?

I still can’t see myself clearly, but I always feel that I can control it and write well.

As a result, time travel, right?

Only when you encounter a bloody nose and look back will you realize that your previous success was just luck.

……

Atletico Madrid met Manchester United in the semi-finals.

The next day, there were two other duels.

Ancelotti's Valencia took the lead in breaking through and reaching the semi-finals.

The Bat Legion did not perform very well in La Liga this season, but performed very well in the Champions League.

The two sides defeated Liverpool 3-1 away from home in the first round and captured Anfield Stadium.

After returning to home, Ancelotti defeated Liverpool 2-1 at home and successfully advanced to the semi-finals with a total score of 5-2.

After Benitez's Liverpool experienced glory in the past few years, its strength has always been only between the top 16 and the top eight, and it is difficult to move forward.

This must be thanks to Benitez's coaching ability. Otherwise, with Liverpool's current lineup and team, it would be difficult to achieve this with a new head coach.

The peak showdown between Real Madrid and Barcelona was somewhat disappointing.

The first leg between the two sides ended in a 0-0 draw at Camp Nou.

Mourinho's side failed to score either against Real Madrid or Wenger's side.

This is considered a satisfactory result.

In the second round, after the two sides returned to the Bernabeu Stadium, Barcelona tried to take the lead in launching an offensive.

As a result, when Barcelona tried to attack, Real Madrid counterattacked. Ronaldo's sudden long shot broke Buffon's goal and gave Real Madrid the lead.

It can be said that Ronaldo's goal completely changed the trend of the game.

One goal behind, Mourinho couldn't fight even if he didn't want to.

As a result, Barcelona began to attack desperately.

When Barcelona completely pressed out to play, the offensive firepower was still very fierce.

But Real Madrid's defense was well organized. Through a counterattack in the second half, Joaquin helped Real Madrid gain another victory.

2 is better than 0!

In the end, Real Madrid defeated Mourinho's Barcelona 2-0 at home and successfully advanced to the semi-finals.

After all the games have been played, the semi-final matchups will be out.

Real Madrid plays Valencia and Atletico Madrid plays Manchester United.

Among the four places in the Champions League semi-finals, La Liga once again occupies three of them and is still very strong.

Manchester United naturally shouldered the heavy burden of fighting against La Liga.

……

Round 31 of La Liga.

Atletico Madrid plays Numancia at home.

Yang Hao made a significant rotation of the team's starting lineup. As a result, despite having the advantage in the first half, he just couldn't open up the situation and entered the halftime break 0-0.

After changing sides in the second half, Yang Hao replaced Kaka in the 56th minute.

After only 5 minutes on the field, Kaka received an assist from Torres and scored for Atletico Madrid.

Numancia's 451 tactics did keep the defense very tight, but Atletico Madrid's offense was also not vegetarian.

In the 70th minute, Yang Hao made his second substitution, and Messi came on as a substitute.

In the 78th minute, Messi assisted Torres and scored a goal, further expanding the score.

In the 90th minute, Suarez assisted Messi and scored a goal, locking the score at 3-0!

In the end, Atletico Madrid defeated Numancia with 3 goals at home.

After the game, in addition to Kaka and Messi's performance after coming off the bench, Atletico Madrid's goalkeeper and defense also received rave reviews.

Numancia was shut out again. After 31 rounds of La Liga, Atletico Madrid has kept a clean sheet in 19 games.

After experiencing frequent mistakes when he first joined the team, Neuer quickly adjusted and began to thrive in Atletico Madrid's defensive system.

He is now not only the best goalkeeper in La Liga, but also in European football.

The 23-year-old German said in an interview with German newspaper Bild after the game that he had fully integrated into Atletico Madrid.

"Our training here is very intense and fulfilling, everyone is very professional, and I am very happy here."

Neuer expressed the hope that through his outstanding performance at Atletico Madrid, Loew can see his performance.

"Loew called me and he informed me about the situation. I think I can take on more important tasks in the national team, but I respect Loew's choice as to how to decide."

Neuer has a good relationship with fellow German Toni Kroos because they both play in foreign countries.

Neuer also specifically mentioned Toni Kroos in the interview.

"I recommended Toni to Low and I told Low he would become a phenomenal midfielder."

"In Atletico Madrid, Toni is not as important as Xiaobai, Kaka, or even Luka, and his performance is not that outstanding, but he is only 19 years old, still very young, but he has already shown extraordinary characteristics. "

"Our boss, oh, that is Mr. Yang Hao, he told me that Tony is like the stabilizer of the team's midfield, but he is still young at this stage and is not stable enough yet." Neuer said in the end, he himself I couldn't help but burst out laughing.

It is indeed interesting to say that the stabilizer is not yet stable.

But Yang Hao's comments are definitely worthy of attention.

Playing at Atletico Madrid is always particularly eye-catching, especially in Atletico Madrid's first team.

Although Toni Kroos has also played in La Liga this season, he has played a lot in La Liga.

Although most of them are substitutes, Yang Hao's use of him can be seen from the fact that he occupies the left center midfielder position every time he plays, while Toni Kroos is more of a passer.

It is worth mentioning that after coming to La Liga to play, Toni Kroos's footwork and skills are obviously much more flexible.

Coming to Atletico Madrid at the age of 17, this is a critical period for developing skills. Toni Kroos came to Atletico Madrid early, which values ​​technology. It is impossible to say that there is no progress in this aspect.

……

In other games in the 31st round, Barcelona narrowly defeated Getafe 1-0 away from home.

Affected by the Champions League, especially after being eliminated from the Champions League by Real Madrid, Barcelona was very annoyed.

Mourinho was even more furious.

Barcelona's away performance is not ideal.

But Real Madrid wasn't much better. They tried their best in the game. After returning to the league, they defeated Huelva 1-0 away from home with Lahm's goal, and their performance was not great.

On the contrary, it was Ancelotti's Valencia who showed his ferocity and showed his claws at the critical moment.

In the Champions League, Valencia has just eliminated Liverpool, and the impact of the two-front battle is also great.

After returning to La Liga, they faced Sevilla at home. As a result, Gallas' header broke the goal less than 10 minutes into the game. The Bat Corps was in a very passive situation.

Valencia is currently ranked 4th and Sevilla is ranked 5th. The difference between the two teams is only 5 points.

If Sevilla wins this game and shortens the points gap, the situation will be quite bad.

Ancelotti's team showed its strength advantage at this time.

Before the end of the first half, Villa equalized the score for Valencia with a wonderful shot.

After changing sides and fighting again in the second half, the Bat Legion continued to launch an onslaught.

Until the 84th and 89th minutes, Juan Mata and Lucio each scored a goal. Lucio's goal came from Vicente's assist.

It's a bit regretful to say that.

Vicente has suffered more and more injuries in the past two years, which is somewhat regrettable.

After reversing Sevilla 3-1 at home, Valencia has firmly established itself in fourth place in La Liga.

Judging from the current situation, if there are no accidents, the top four in La Liga this season will still be Atletico Madrid, Barcelona, ​​Real Madrid and Valencia.

But the most suspenseful thing at the moment is not the winning team, or even the European theater.

Because there is a full 9-point gap between Malaga, currently ranked 10th, and Real Mallorca, ranked 8th.

This almost means a break.

The possibility of Real Mallorca wanting to enter the European theater is gone. On the contrary, it is in the relegation zone.

The deputy squad leader is at the bottom in rotation. This season, teams including Numancia, Huelva, Sporting Gijon and other teams have served as deputy squad president.

Nowadays, in addition to these three teams, Athletic Bilbao, Getafe, Osasuna, Racing Santander and Real Betis are still in danger of relegation.

After 31 rounds of the league, 8 teams are still fighting for relegation. This intensity can be said to be quite tragic.

And Numancia, which currently has the fewest points, scored 28 points.

what is this concept?

Levante, the deputy squad leader in the same period last season, only scored 31 points after 19 rounds, especially since this team has rebounded after the winter break.

Now, Numancia, the deputy squad leader, has scored 28 points, a full 9 points more than Levante.

Even if we don't compare with Levante last season, from 04 to now, after 31 rounds, the deputy squad leader is probably in the early 20s.

You know, in the relegation zone, every point is crucial and extremely difficult.

It can also be seen from this how fierce the competition in La Liga is this season.

The vice squad leader has such strength, you can imagine other teams.

What's even more outrageous is that now almost all teams aiming to avoid relegation are offering huge rewards.

Teams such as Sporting Gijon, Athletic Bilbao, Getafe, etc. are all increasing their rewards, hoping that players can do their best to help the team stay in La Liga.

The annual income of 50 to 60 million euros is a huge amount of money for any team.

Not to mention these mid-to-lower teams.

As analyzed by Spanish newspaper Marca, the previous set of rules of the game has completely changed.

Do you really think that after being relegated to La Liga, you can turn around and return to La Liga soon?

Do not make jokes.

Just look at Segunda División this season.

This season's Segunda División has reached the 33rd round. Before the season, everyone thought that after being acquired by a Mexican consortium, Barcelona spent heavily to introduce famous players such as Rafael Marcos, Dos Santos, Guardado and Vela. Lecano will come out on top.

Actually?

Although Rayo Vallecano, trained by the famous coach Aguirre, is currently ranked first in the Spanish Second Division, it is only 1 point more than the second-placed Jerez, followed by Tenerife, Hercules (Hercules) (Sports), Zaragoza, Real Sociedad and other teams.

From seventh in West Second Division to first in West Second Division, there is only a 7-point difference.

The traditional teams, such as Celta Vigo, are currently fighting relegation in the second division, and Alaves is also fighting relegation.

Tarragona, which was relegated last season, is currently ranked 13th, and Murcia is ranked 16th.

Times have completely changed!

La Liga is not easy to get along with, and La Liga is also not easy to get along with.

In the past, those La Liga teams could be said to be relegated to La Liga Second Division for a period of time and then make a comeback.

But now it seems that it doesn't work.

A common saying in the Spanish media is that both La Liga and La Liga are beginning to roll up.

This unhealthy trend of involution is also having an impact on Atletico Madrid.

In the past, Atletico Madrid's second team was backed by a team of sheets, and it was easy to enjoy the shade under the big trees. They could always get a good ranking in the second division, and even broke into the championship ranks of the second division.

But in the past few years, with the reform of La Liga, the competition in La Liga has gradually become fiercer, and the ranking of Atletico Madrid's second team has gradually declined.

From the earliest, to the top, to the middle and upper, and now to the middle and lower.

Currently, Atletico Madrid's second team ranks 22th among the 14 La Liga teams.

Since there are 4 teams in the second division that are going to be relegated, for now, Atletico Madrid's second team is still safe for the time being, but if they are not careful, they may fall into it.

This is still based on the fact that Atletico Madrid invests a lot of resources in youth training and second team signings every year.

If we use Atletico Madrid's second team as a benchmark, we can see the progress of the Spanish Second Division in recent years.

In addition to Rayo Vallecano's huge investment, Zaragoza also invested more than 20 million euros in transfer fees after being relegated, which is already a huge investment in La Liga.

Zaragoza currently has famous players such as Everton and Ricardo Oliveira, as well as Atletico Madrid’s youth training midfielder Gabi, all of whom are in Zaragoza, and the head coach is Atletico Madrid who is familiar to many people. Selino.

But even so, Zaragoza is currently only ranked fifth in La Liga.

Do other teams invest more?

Actually not.

The main thing is that everyone has their own way of living.

For example, Tenerife, which currently has the strongest offensive power, has also invested a lot of money to sign midfielders of the same level as Mikel Alonso, but they mainly focus on loan and free transfers.

For example, Alfaro, the left winger on loan from Sevilla, is one of the best performers in La Liga this season and has scored the most goals.

There is also Nino, who came from Real Madrid's youth training and is currently the top scorer in La Liga.

Atletico Madrid once conducted a survey and believed that the overall investment in La Liga this season is not large, but it is very interesting.

Rayo Vallecano and Zaragoza are the two teams that have invested the most. They have poached many players from other Spanish Second Division teams, which has indeed improved the team's competitiveness.

Other teams in the Spanish Second Division are using their transfer income to go to South America, Africa, and other countries to dig up high-quality, low-price, but good players, and they may even make a profit in the process.

The overall strength depends on the team's recruitment level.

Those teams that have the ability to dig out high-quality and low-price players, have the ability to loan good players from La Liga, or recruit excellent free transfer players, are currently ranked at the top of La Liga.

What about those who are not performing satisfactorily in the transfer market?

For example, Celta Vigo, Murcia, Alaves and other teams are currently fighting against relegation.

This forms another ecology.

Yang Hao said before that there is no absolute advantage between teams in Europe's top leagues.

This situation is even more common in West Second Division.

The gap in strength between players is not that big. If you have money, dig it.

After I got the money, I went shopping again and found good stuff. My strength even increased instead of decreasing.

In fact, situations like this have always existed in the past few years, but this season has become particularly intense.

More and more teams want to enter La Liga!

The biggest difference from the previous English Championship is that the English Championship has actually developed very slowly, even much slower than the Premier League.

But not West Division II.

The development of West Second Division is actually very fast.

In the past, people always said that there are many second teams of La Liga teams in La Liga.

At most, there were even five or six.

But now?

There is only Atletico Madrid's second team, and it is still ranked in the middle and lower reaches.

In just a few years, Segunda División has completely changed.

why?

Because the talent pool is abundant.

Spain itself has done a very good job in youth training. The training of local players is still accelerating, and it is backed by Portugal, Africa and South America. Now even the second division has begun to recruit players in Eastern Europe and Asia.

Without the restriction of labor certificate, the selection scope of the second division is much wider than that of the English Championship.

In this case, the development speed of West Second Division will naturally become faster.

Then you can see that the three newly promoted teams in La Liga this season are all very good, including teams such as Sporting Gijon and Malaga. They all performed well, and Malaga even rushed into the top half.

Another difference is that although the Premier League has a parachute protection policy for relegated teams, it only applies to those relegated teams in the Premier League. However, La Liga has always been composed of 20 teams from La Liga and 22 teams from La Liga. composition.

From the beginning, La Liga’s local copyright auction will share the cake with La Liga.

Although this piece of cake is very small compared to La Liga teams, for La Liga teams, it is not bad.

What's more, it happens every year.

Not to mention anything else, with a few hundred thousand euros every year, at the level of La Liga, you can buy a good young player in South America, Africa, Portugal, and even in your own country.

Buy one more this year and one more next year. After a few years of accumulation, you can build half a team.

The overall strength is rising, which is natural.

Not only that, La Liga is now actively developing the copyright of La Liga, including a series of sponsorships and packaging marketing. All of these are incomparable with the top leagues, but for La Liga teams, they are already quite good.

In this regard, Spain has a unique advantage.

When more and more talents are pouring into Spain, not to mention La Liga, the competition in La Liga is becoming more and more fierce, and the stadium attendance is also constantly increasing. The income of those teams with good management capabilities is also increasing. rising.

This has resulted in a fierce competition in La Liga this season.

……

After Yang Hao communicated with Atletico Madrid, he had almost no doubt that the situation in the previous life where the British Championship became the sixth largest league in Europe would definitely happen in advance.

This far exceeded Yang Hao's expectations.

He really didn't expect that things would develop so fast.

Especially when La Liga was sprinting forward like a wild horse, La Liga was also advancing by leaps and bounds when he wasn't paying attention.

When he looked back, he found that everything had changed.

He really never thought that things would turn out like this.

But now, what Atletico Madrid faces is a brand new problem.

Does the team want to maintain its position as the second team in Segunda División?

This is actually a very interesting question.

In other top leagues, there are basically no problems in this regard, but La Liga is an exception.

Moreover, Atletico Madrid is now an exception among exceptions.

After Yang Hao led the reform of Atletico Madrid's youth training, he integrated the youth training echelon, especially in the second team, and set an age limit of 23 years old. In other words, a player over 23 years old must either enter the first team or be sold.

This has indeed played a very big role in promoting Atletico Madrid.

In the past few years, youth training has sprung up like mushrooms after a rain.

But now, the competition in the second division is becoming more and more fierce, and it is somewhat inappropriate to continue to adhere to the past operating model.

After 31 rounds, although there are still games in the middle of the week, the summer transfer is approaching and many things must be dealt with in advance. Therefore, various departments of Atletico Madrid made a special trip to Mahadahonda to hold a meeting with Yang Hao and the athletics department.

This time, Atletico Madrid had 31 department heads present, all of whom were responsible for their own affairs.

For example, the scouting department is attended by two directors, Cesar Mendiodo and Caminero.

There are also youth training departments, fan services departments, etc.

The positioning of the second team was a key discussion point at the meeting.

According to Tony Munoz and Aguilera from the fan service department, questionnaires among local fans, and the team’s ticket sales, the attendance rate for the second team’s games is actually pretty good.

The ticket price is not high and the sales situation is not bad.

The Calderon Stadium in Mahadajonda has only a single-story stand with a capacity of only 1 people, but the average attendance remains at around 6000 people, which is actually far lower than the current average of Segunda División.

"Judging from the attendance rate of La Liga this season, the number of people entering the stadium should be more than 9000. This is the average number."

Due to the size of the home stadium and the different attractions of the teams, it is difficult to achieve consistent attendance.

From the current point of view, the number of players entering the second team of Atletico Madrid is far lower than the average number of La Liga.

The problem actually lies in many aspects. For example, the facilities of the stadium are not very good and there is no roof yet. During afternoon games on rainy or hot days, there are very few fans willing to attend.

In addition, the supporting facilities of the stadium are not very good, such as insufficient parking lots.

Mahadahonda is located in the outer suburbs. Fans basically have to drive to watch a game, but parking is inconvenient and is a big problem.

All of this is because of the second team.

The Calderon Stadium used by Atletico Madrid's second team is second to none among all teams.

Real Madrid's Di Stefano Stadium is not as good as Atletico Madrid's Calderon Stadium.

According to the suggestions given by the fan service department, the team can fully provide supporting services in these aspects, such as adding a roof, keeping ticket prices low, and attracting more fans to enter the stadium.

At that time, game day income will be significantly improved.

More importantly, these fans watch the games of the second team and the growth of young players, and will become loyal fans and potential consumers of the first team in the future.

"There is a piece of wasteland not far from the Calderon Stadium. We can come forward and negotiate with your government to get it at a low price and turn it into a parking lot. We will charge external fees, but we will not charge anyone who purchases Atletico Madrid season tickets and second-team tickets. It’s free for fans.”

Xiao Hill's proposal was immediately approved by many people.

This gave Yang Hao the feeling of racing to enclose territory.

But it has to be said that in a place like the outskirts of Madrid, wasteland is really worthless.

Just imagine, tens of thousands of people can be attracted here to watch football every two weeks. How much consumption potential will these people bring?

This is definitely a big temptation for the local government of Mahadahonda.

Don't say you bought it, you could just give it away for free.

"Carlos, what do you think?" Yang Hao looked at the marketing director.

"We have been discussing and studying this issue during the past period, and have also talked with many sponsors. The contracts we signed with sponsors such as Emirates Airlines and Nike all include youth teams."

"I think that in situations like this, we can follow the example of the women's team and basketball team, communicate with sponsors, and add an additional sponsorship fee. I believe we can negotiate."

At that time, Atletico Madrid signed a stadium naming and chest advertising sponsorship with Emirates Airlines for the new stadium, and also signed a jersey sponsorship with Nike. Looking back now, Atletico Madrid has lost money to grandma's family.

But there was no way. The conditions were limited at the time and the team was in urgent need of money, so we had no choice but to do this.

The loss here does not mean that the price negotiated by Atletico Madrid was very low. In fact, the price at that time was still quite high, which was in line with Atletico Madrid's positioning at the time, but the loss was that the age was a bit long.

For example, chest advertising lasts for 05 years starting from the 06/8 season, while jersey sponsorship lasts for 7 years.

Now, four years later, looking back at the two previous contracts, the sponsors have made a lot of money, while Atletico Madrid has suffered a bit.

Of course, a contract is a contract and must be implemented once signed. Atletico Madrid's goodwill in this regard is still very good.

But what Carlos Leo said is to appropriately increase the sponsorship fee for the second team, which can also be done.

Fernando Vazquez, the God of Wealth, made a rough financial assessment and believed that if the match day income can be increased and the team's commercial income can be increased, there will be no problem for Atletico Madrid's second team to stay in the Spanish Second Division.

More importantly, backed by Atletico Madrid's strong scouting network, it has a unique advantage in talent selection and training.

Both Mendiodo and Caminero believe that Atletico Madrid has exported a lot of players to the outside world in recent years, but the overall strength of the team has still been maintained well, which proves that this route is feasible.

Next, Atletico Madrid's second team can continue to focus on the training of young players under the age of 23, which can not only ensure the competitiveness of the team, but also cultivate players.

Even if the first team doesn't use it, it can be sold to other teams and earn some transfer fees to support the second team and youth training.

"Nowadays, transfers in La Liga are not cheap, and there are many transfers over one million euros." Mendiodo reminded.

In the past, most of the transfers in the Spanish Second Division were worth hundreds of thousands of euros, and most of them were free and on loan. However, now the Spanish Second Division has a faint trend of breaking out, and those focusing on talent cultivation have fallen to the Spanish Third League.

By the way, La Liga and La Liga are under the jurisdiction of La Liga.

The Spanish Third Division is now managed by the Spanish Football Federation, which are two systems.

Yang Hao thought of another thing, that was when Barcelona was at its peak in the previous life, and their entire youth training model was like this.

The second team performs well in Segunda División every year, providing a steady supply of talent to the first team, such as Bojan, Tello, Deulofeu, Romeu, Thiago, Montoya and so on.

Of course, there are many from Barcelona's own youth training, but there are also many young rookies recruited from Portugal, Argentina, and even all over the world, most of whom are around 18 years old.

Among them are Munir, Denis Suarez, Halilovic, etc., all of whom are famous young geniuses.

But this kind of operation is also a test for the team's overall coordination.

For example, in the 13/14 season of Yang Hao's previous life, Real Madrid's second team originally performed well in Segunda División, but because of a conflict between the head coach Toril and Mourinho, the head coach of the first team, Mourinho banned him. He joined the second team and made a fuss.

In the end, Real Madrid's second team was relegated after the season.

During the years when Guardiola was in charge of Barcelona, ​​the second team developed very smoothly. From the youth team to the first team, the flow of talents was very good. By the 10/11 season, they even finished third in the Spanish Second Division.

In the 13/14 season, which was the season when Real Madrid's second team was appointed, Barcelona's second team once again finished third, and their results were brilliant.

But in the summer of 14, Barcelona's management sold off or sold too many second-team players in one fell swoop, causing a serious decline in the competitiveness of the second team. By the 14/15 season, Barcelona's second team was relegated as the bottom in points.

It can be said that the second team plays in La Liga. This is definitely a great advantage for La Liga teams, especially the strong teams, but it is also a great test for the team's management.

A little careless handling may result in failure.

After integrating the opinions of all parties, Yang Hao basically reached a consensus.

Atletico Madrid's second team must strive to stay in La Liga, which will be of huge benefit to Atletico Madrid's long-term development in La Liga.

After Yang Hao thought about it for a while, he made a decision on the spot.

But after the meeting, he found Mendiodo and Caminero in private.

"You should prepare a signing list for this summer based on the actual situation of the second team as soon as possible. Prepare the materials and submit them to me."

In the past few years, Yang Hao has rarely participated in the actual recruitment and operations of the second team or even the youth team.

According to them, transfers under 100 million euros do not need to be reported to Yang Hao at all.

But this time it was related to the second team and the club's long-term considerations, so Yang Hao decided to take care of it himself.

If nothing else, who is more familiar with the talent pool in European football and even Spanish football in the next few years than Yang Hao?

If you continue to recruit players, even if the first team doesn't use them, you can still sell them at a high price, right?

 Sorry, the update is late! I worked until around 3 o'clock last night and woke up around 9 o'clock in the morning. After eating, I started coding until now. I really don't dare to be lazy. Please beg for your monthly pass. Our monthly pass is indeed a bit broken this month! It's also my fault, the update time has been unstable lately...
