"Sandro, congratulations."

Unlike the time when Laporta won the victory, Rist was very excited when Rosell announced that he had become the chairman of Barcelona.Therefore, he also went up to congratulate Russell on becoming the new chairman of Barcelona.

Roselle has a huge advantage this time.In the end, he got more than 60.00% of the support votes and became the new chairman of Barcelona.Since Rosell left Barcelona, ​​Rist has been feeling very depressed.Although because of Messi, Barcelona still plays an important role in Barcelona.But because after so many years, it was impossible to intervene in the transfer of Barcelona, ​​and the La Masia talent Kurist also failed to win any, which made Riester feel very angry.Now it's finally time for Rosell to become the chairman of Barcelona.

"Thank you."

Russell is also in a very good mood now.Russell likes money, becoming the chairman of Barcelona has brought him and his partners a lot of benefits.With his position as the chairman of Barcelona, ​​Russell can double his net worth even if he doesn't use Barcelona's public funds.Because around Barcelona, ​​a giant club, the various economic benefits generated must exceed one billion a year.As long as Roselle occupies one of them, he can live comfortably.

"Sandro, I hope that under your leadership Barcelona can truly become the world's number one giant."

Although it was nonsense, Rist still praised Russell a few words.Anyway, no one wants to listen to good words, and Russell is no exception.

"It's my dream too."

Russell is here, and his thinking is completely different from that of Laporta.Laporta is actually no different from Florentino.His real thinking is superstar, superstar policy.Just like the introduction of Henry and Ibrahimovic, they all follow the same idea.He is using Barcelona to increase his bargaining chips in politics.

But he was really lucky.During the period of Dream II, Russell introduced Ronaldinho, Villa, Deco and others to build Dream II.For the establishment of Dream [-], Roselle is truly indispensable.But when Russell left, Barcelona's signings were all kinds of funny.In terms of chaos, it is comparable to Real Madrid.

But God is still very kind to him.In the chaotic Barcelona, ​​if it hadn't been for Guardiola, Meng San would never have appeared.When building the new Barcelona, ​​Laporta hoped to use Mourinho and superstars to rebuild Barcelona.If it weren't for Cruyff's intervention later.Guardiola is simply impossible to become the coach of Barcelona.Therefore, the appearance of Meng San is inevitable.But there are also accidents.For Laporta, Dream Three was absolutely accidental.

The biggest difference between Russell and Laporta is that Laporta regards Barcelona as a bargaining chip to enter the political arena, and only cares about whether Barcelona can have superstars and whether they can achieve good results.Russell, on the other hand, regards Barcelona as a business.He runs the club the way he runs a business.

So when Russell took office.The policy of "running a golf club frugally" was put forward.Even high-profile announcements.The current Barcelona is very difficult. Barcelona's debt has already exceeded [-] million, if strict savings are not implemented.Next year it will exceed [-] million.It even said that Barcelona already needs a loan to be able to pay wages.Therefore, Russell said that his goal is very simple, which is to increase revenue and reduce expenditure.

After Russell was elected, he quickly implemented his own slogan.On the third day after Russell was elected, Barcelona negotiated with Henry to terminate the contract.In the end, the two sides reached an agreement, and Henry voluntarily gave up the remaining one-year contract.

Don't look at the one-year contract, but Henry's salary is very high, which is 900 million euros after tax.Therefore, Henry's salary in Barcelona is more than 200 million euros. With Henry leaving, Barcelona can save more than 200 million euros a year.Then he kicked Ziglinski back to his old club Shakhtar Donetsk.Introduced last summer for 2500 million euros, this summer abandoned for 1500 million euros.

Everyone can feel the difference between Russell and Laporta.At this time, Arshavin, another superstar player in Barcelona, ​​was also abandoned by Barcelona. The 29-year-old Arshavin also enjoys a super high annual salary in Barcelona, ​​​​900 million euros after tax.Originally, Arshavin's performance in Barcelona was not bad, but Russell was really unwilling to pay his salary of more than 200 million euros, so he could only be transferred.This time Barcelona dumped Arshavin to his former club Zenit.

The boss of Zenit was thinking of doing a big job, so he thought of introducing Hulk.Compared to Hulk, Arshavin is more famous and more popular in Russia.Now that Arshavin is about to transfer, they are also very active.In the end Zenit took away Arshavin from Barcelona for 2400 million euros.

Don't underestimate the handling of these few sums, which freed up nearly 3000 million euros in salary for Barcelona.Adding the bonuses they got, they saved Barcelona nearly 4000 million euros at once.And this is not over yet, Rist knows that Russell is also dissatisfied with Ibrahimovic, and is ready to deal with him.His salary is also very high, and if it is dealt with, more salary can be vacated.

"111 years of traditional business offensive!"

"Dire financial situation forces Barcelona to change!"

"Cruyff: It's a disgrace for Barcelona to sell chest ads!"

"3000 million euros to tarnish the red basketball jersey!"

In less than half a month since Russell took office, he first sorted out several high-salary players.Then all of a sudden Barcelona announced a partnership with the Qatar Foundation and sold the Barcelona chest ad to the Qatar Foundation.3000 million euros a year, signed a five-year chest advertising contract.As soon as the contract was announced, there was a wave of excitement.Because Barcelona has never sold jersey chest advertisements for more than 100 years.

Originally, Qatar Sports Investment Company wanted the name of Qatar Airways to appear in Barcelona's chest advertisement.But Roselle has already broken Barcelona's centuries-old rules and dare not directly appear in commercials.Qatar Foundation is much better than Qatar Airways.How to say that the Qatar Foundation is not a profit-making organization, which can reduce some obstacles and member dissatisfaction.

But this time the contract is the highest in European football.The chest advertisements of several clubs such as Manchester United, Liverpool and Real Madrid sold well.But it has just passed more than 2000 million, and the contract between Liverpool and Standard Chartered Bank is only more than 300 million euros.And Barcelona sold it at a high price of 3000 million euros this time.

Rosell's approach angered Cruyff, Barcelona's honorary chairman.Cruyff wrote a long column where he satirized Russell.Think that Rosell tarnishes the red basketball jersey like this, tarnishing the history of Barcelona.Moreover, it is ironic that Russell only knows how to pick up people's teeth, instead of opening up new business channels, but followed the idea of ​​other clubs to advertise on their chests.And after Russell took office, he said that Russell would never be able to do better than Laporta.It is impossible for Russell's performance to be comparable to Laporta's.

Cruyff was arrogant and wantonly commented on the new chairman of Barcelona.Russell was even more arrogant. Russell was irritated by Cruyff's attitude, and immediately held a press conference.Cruyff was "killed by pain" in the press conference.

Russell said: "Currently there is no honorary chairmanship in the charter of the Barcelona club. So Cruyff's current position is not in compliance with the regulations. No one wants to hang an empty title, so I can only follow the club's regulations. work."

The meaning of this sentence is very simple.Rosell is to say that in Barcelona's charter, there is no such position as honorary chairman, Cruyff's so-called honorary chairman title.Barcelona club is not recognized.In other words, Roselle does not admit that Barcelona has such a thing as an honorary chairman.Do what you Cruyff should do.You are no longer the honorary president of Barcelona.Was dismissed by me.

Speaking of Russell, this point is really too much.Because it was in March of this year that Cruyff was appointed honorary chairman of the Barcelona club by former chairman Laporta.At that time, in order to show grandeur, Laporta also specially conducted an appointment ceremony.Laporta said at the time.As honorary chairman, Cruyff does not have to perform any duties. This honor can be seen as a recognition of the Dutchman's great contribution to Barcelona.Just like Di Stefano in Real Madrid, it is an honorary title.Honoring the greatest players in the club's history.

But less than two days after Roselle went up, Cruyff was "honorably laid off".Cruyff was very angry after hearing the news. He said that Rosell's decision was unacceptable to him. The Dutchman said: "I don't want to leave like this. In their view, I am in Barcelona. The club is a persona non grata."

Indeed.In Rosell's Barcelona, ​​Cruyff was not popular.No matter what, Russell has established his authority in Barcelona through the matter of Cruyff.Rist watched the farce from the side, feeling a little amused in his heart.Roselle said it was too much.

Keep checking Barcelona's accounts, and never let go of his predecessor Laporta.Now even Cruyff doesn't give face at all, and the title of honorary chairman has been taken back.

In fact, Rist himself does not like Cruyff.Because Cruyff has too much influence on Barcelona, ​​and Guardiola and Cruyff have a close relationship, they have seriously hurt Rist's interests in Barcelona.Now Russell expelled Cruyff, expelled Laporta's influence in disguise, and also suppressed several agents who were close to Guardiola invisibly.There are no better things for Rist than this.

"Rist, what about Ibrahimovic?"

Russell's biggest headache now is the matter of Ibrahimovic.Speaking of which, Barcelona fans are not as repulsive to Ibrahimovic as they imagined. On the contrary, many fans hope that the club will keep Ibrahimovic.

But Russell will definitely not keep Ibrahimovic.Not only is it difficult for him to integrate into the current Barcelona system, but his after-tax salary reaches tens of millions of euros, which is a huge burden for Barcelona.But now the European giants are shrinking one by one, and few giants can introduce Ibrahimovic.There are not many giants who can afford Ibrahimovic's salary, so it is too difficult to make a move.

"Sandro, it's easy to say."

"Say."

"The Qatar investment fund that just signed a large contract with Barcelona, ​​they have reached an agreement with Paris Saint-Germain, and they will soon enter Paris Saint-Germain. Sell them, they have money."

"Okay? Can Zlatan Ibrahimovic agree?"

Ligue [-] is still not influential enough, can Ibrahimovic agree to transfer from Barcelona to Ligue [-]?How to say Ibrahimovic is also a superstar player in today's football.How could you be willing to go to Ligue [-]?

"Do they have other options? Are they willing to play as a substitute in Barcelona? The arrogant Zlatan Ibrahimovic will not accept such a shame. And Raiola likes money very much. Qatar must have a lot of money." Money. The two sides can hit it off."

"This matter requires you to contact me. Anyway, I must clean Ibrahimovic. By the way, I sold too many players in the summer. I also need some supplements. How about Ozil in Bremen?"

"If you are interested in him, I can bring it to you." (To be continued...)
