Reborn Russia As An Oligarch

They are all people in the London football circle, so of course they can't hide the fact that Chelsea was acquired. It's just that the matter with Abramovich has not been finalized yet, and there is just a little bit of news.

Wenger had only heard about it, but did not know the specific situation.

But David Dane should know, after all, he has much better information than he does.

Sure enough, when Wenger asked, David Dein smiled slightly and said, "Well, it does happen. Let me tell you this, with Chelsea and Arsenal ushering in new owners, the pattern of the Premier League will change next year! This Two new bosses, that’s… really rich!”

Wenger still doesn't believe it. No matter how rich he is, how rich can he be?

Will Arsenal and Chelsea be richer than Manchester United, Real Madrid and Barcelona in the future?

This is completely impossible!

No matter how rich the owner is, he can't afford the club's huge investment every year. Look at the Moratti family of Inter Milan. In order to maintain the club's continued high investment, they almost bankrupted the family...

"Who is the new boss? Is he a super rich man from England?" Wenger asked.

However, David Dein kept silent about this issue and did not leak it to Wenger.

He just said: "The truth will come to light after a while, and the new boss will naturally come and make his debut. We can't reveal his identity yet, but he will definitely give you a surprise!"

In fact, Wang Ye brought more than one surprise to Wenger when he arrived...

…………

As Katya led the acquisition team to London, and after meeting and communicating with Abramovich's professional team, Katja officially took over all the work of acquiring the Arsenal Club.

David Dein also came to the hotel where Katya and the others were staying and had several private conversations behind closed doors.

Meanwhile, the Premier League is still in full swing.

Arsenal faced a team in the middle and lower reaches of the league at home, but before the game, there was bad news.

Two of the team's generals, Henry and Vieira, were unable to play. One had a bad stomach after eating, and the other accidentally fell off the bed while sleeping and injured his back.

Once these two people were absent, the team's strength was greatly reduced, so even the middle and lower reaches teams failed to win, losing 0:1.

Although this game can't decide anything, the team has already lost hope of winning the championship anyway and will not fall out of the top three.

But this also means that the club is empty-handed this season and has not won any championships.

Perhaps this was the straw that broke the camel's back.

On the club's board of directors, the small shareholders could no longer hide their frustration and complained one after another.

"How can Coach Wenger do this? We invested a lot in transfers last summer and brought in several players at high prices. However, we got nothing this year."

What this shareholder meant by "investing a lot" was that the club gave Wenger more than 10 million pounds in transfer fees last year, which met Wenger's team building requirements.

"It's just that the results in the first half of the season were very good, but the second half of the season fell apart at the beginning. Alas, the results were not good, there was no breakthrough in the Champions League, and the club's finances are so tight, it is difficult to handle."

Another shareholder also expressed frustration.

Listening to everyone's complaints, David Dein sat there expressionless.

He has long been accustomed to this kind of scene, it happens often.

After everyone had finished complaining, he spoke:

“I think it’s time to find a strong major shareholder for the club.

The club can no longer sustain itself just by relying on us shareholders.

Now there must be someone willing to invest money in the club, and it needs to be a large amount of money, hundreds of millions of pounds!

Because the loan alone costs tens of millions of pounds, it has become a heavy burden for our club.

If this loan is not repaid, the club's financial situation will not improve, and there will naturally be no funds to invest in the transfer market. If the team is not strengthened, of course there will be no good results. This is a vicious cycle..."

In the past, there might still be people who were unwilling to give up their shares and still held on to some illusions.

But as the team's performance continues to be sluggish, especially after losing the latest game, some shareholders finally couldn't hold on any longer.

Someone said: "I also agree with David's proposal, but where can I find someone to buy the club now? In recent years, various industries have been in recession, and large investments have become rare, especially in football."

David Dein said unhurriedly: "I have been thinking about this matter and have contacted some potential investors. However, if someone else acquires the club, it must be a full acquisition. It is impossible to only buy a part of the shares and then There are a bunch of people in the board of directors who can’t agree on the same opinion. Now, if someone is willing to offer a good price, are everyone willing to give up their shares? "

David Dein has communicated with several shareholders privately before.

Therefore, when David Dein asked this question, someone immediately "cooperated".

One shareholder asked excitedly: "Is anyone really willing to acquire our club? What's the price? If the price is right, then my shares will be the first to be transferred!"

As soon as he finished speaking, another shareholder also said quickly: "Don't compete with me. As long as the price is good, let me be the first to transfer the shares. Everyone knows that my family's company is in very poor operating conditions and will soon be unable to survive." I'm just waiting to transfer the club's shares in exchange for some money to save the family company."

With such two leaders, other shareholders can't sit still.

They all said that there is absolutely no problem in selling the shares, it just depends on the price.

As long as the price is right, everyone agrees to sell their shares.

Of course, not everyone is willing to transfer their shares. One or two shareholders hold objections and do not agree to sell their shares.

However, the proportion of shares they hold is very low, which does not affect the acquisition at all.

Moreover, it is not up to them to decide whether to sell or not. When Wang Ye acquires more than 75% of the shares, he can directly start the privatization. By then, you will have to sell whether you want to sell or not. !

Because this is stipulated by law, the major shareholders have the right to kick you out!

…………

The long-prepared acquisition was finally made clear at this board meeting.

After intense discussions, all shareholders agreed that as long as the club's valuation is no less than 150 million pounds, everyone agrees to sell their shares!

Of course, the old shareholders will ignore the club's debts and leave them to the new owners to deal with.

With the internal and external cooperation, the acquisition is finally close to success!
