Chapter 42 The dynasty has long collapsed

For the introduction of foreign investment, there has never been such a precedent since Berlusconi took over AC Milan, but now it seems that all this has become possible. Milan needs not only to retain core players like Kaka, but also a large amount of money.

Desp>Although the investment group owned by AC Milan's Berlusconi family, Fininvest, the main shareholder of AC Milan, denied the sale of the club's shares and publicly said: "Fininvest clearly and completely denies that the so-called Fininvest in the media will be partially The rumor of the sale of all his AC Milan shares is nonsense, and there is no negotiation or contact about the sale of shares.

However, many Italian media, including Milan's mouthpiece, La Gazzetta dello Sport, believe that Berlusconi and his family should in fact have recognized and accepted the possibility of foreign capital injecting AC Milan.

In fact, although Berlusconi himself was once unhappy to see such a thing happen, his children strongly opposed the Berlusconi family from continuing to pay for AC Milan's high player consumption. Now the parents of the Berlusconi family seem to have compromised with the young strong and accepted foreign capital. Ben's vision of entering AC Milan.

Now it seems that the most likely foreign capital to enter AC Milan is the black gold investment from the United Arab Emirates. Behind Dubai International Capital is Mohammed, the Dubai chief who is also the vice president and prime minister of the United Arab Emirates. Ben. Rashid. Al Maktoum, Dubai International Capital is likely to buy a 35% stake in AC Milan, and AC Milan will be able to see 500 million euros recorded immediately.

Berlusconi's agreement to allow foreign capital to enter AC Milan is accompanied by a 100% club equity transfer condition of a so-called put option, that is to say, Berlusconi has the right, but does not have to sell all the club's equity to Dubai International Capital at the current agreed price two years later.

In fact, Berlusconi has no intention of investing in the club now, mainly because doing so will lead to a further rise in already false and excessive capital, instead of investing now, giving Berlusconi the opportunity to say "Sorry, in fact, we are just kidding" to the Arab chaebols two years later. There is no need to sell the club's equity.

The total equity value agreed by the two sides should be about 10 billion euros. Behind this seemingly ridiculous figure shows the fact that the Arabs are interested in investing in AC Milan just to have a full voice in the construction of the team's new stadium, just like the original construction for Arsenal. It was the same when building the Emirates Stadium.

In addition to capital, the biggest problem hindering the revival of AC Milan now is people's hearts. Kaka chose to stay in the team, which is good news, but the handsome position of Ancelotti has now become complicated and confusing. Eight years have passed since he joined San Siro in 2001, can this fate be maintained. Hold on, just like Kaka and AC Milan, both full of unknowns.

On the 24th theory of Serie A, AC Milan will play away against Udinese. Before the game, Ancelotti answered questions from reporters at a regular press conference. Due to the disturbance caused by Berlusconi's criticism of Ancelotti, and because Ancelotti will bid farewell to AC Milan after the storm. Rumor has it that this press conference is Ancelotti's first public statement after the storm, so it is particularly eye-attentional.

"There is nothing new than what I said in the past. Those stories do not exist. There are too many untrustworthy rumors now. I am still in AC Milan, but you have deposited Chelsea's contract in my safe. This is too ridiculous. I I don't think anything will happen."

"I think it's useless to comment on President Berlusconi's statement or wait for his call, because he has publicly denied these things, and I believe that no comment is needed. My relationship with the club is very good and harmonious."

Although Ancelotti denied it, everyone knows that because of his record and some players, Ancelotti's life in San Siro may be really full of variables, including Berlusconi's bias against Ancelotti, and of course some people, such as Ronaldinho .

Berlusconi once pointed the finger at the head coach of his club in an interview, claiming: "If AC Milan lost the hope of winning the first division this season, it is entirely Ancelotti's responsibility. With the strength of AC Milan's team, the team should have been able to compete with Fiorentina. ."

And Berlusconi also believes that the team's failure was entirely due to the team's head coach Ancelotti's tactical mistake and his failure to make full use of Ronaldinho's ability.

But people's ideas are obviously not like this. People's eyes are bright. In a poll done by Milan Sport, more than half of the people believe that Berlusconi bombarded the team's head coach and blamed Ancelotti for losing AC Milan's Serie A championship this season. Unreasonable.

It is generally believed that AC Milan's current team is not equipped to compete with Fiorentina as Berlusconi claimed.

In addition, with regard to Berlusconi's claim that "Ancelotti's tactical mistake led to the loss of AC Milan's championship", most of the respondents chose to side with AC Milan's head coach, believing that Ancelotti had no mistake in his tactical choice.

In a word, in the incident of Beck's bombardment of Ancelotti, more than half of the fans and club owners disagreed and chose to stand on the side of the head coach. For the Italian Prime Minister and AC Milan boss, whose support rate has continued to decline in political polls in recent days, this result is undoubtedly a bias. It rains all night.

In fact, Berlusconi's taboo mouth not only attacked Ancelotti, but also was also very different from Galliani's consistent explanation of the team's defeat this season, because Galliani has always said that one of the main reasons for the point gap between AC Milan and Fiorentina is The team's injury is too many and the lineup is not neat, and nothing has been said about the team's tactical mistakes or the coach's decision-making mistakes.

Therefore, whether it is intended or not, Berlusconi's remarks actually have the effect of killing two birds with one stone, and it is obvious that although the club owner does not want to invest too much in the team, the parties still have a tacit choice about Berlusconi's letter-opening incident. Instead of talking about it, we continue to work on making arrangements for the club for next season.

However, many people can't help asking Berlusconi why he opened fire on Ancelotti so directly, because after all, there has always been a superficially peaceful relationship between the two. In the eyes of the fans, Berlusconi There is no reason to do such a thing.

However, the Milan Sport pointed out that in fact, Berlusconi not only has a good reason, but also has a real name, that is, Ronaldinho.

Berlusconi is actually blaming Ancelotti, who always puts Ronaldinho on the bench and fails to give full play to the value of this Brazilian, which he sees as a valuable asset of the club.

As we all know, Ronaldinho has always been loved by Berlusconi. After chasing Brazilians for many years, Berlusconi finally made Ronaldinho appear in Milanello in the summer of 2008.

In fact, Ancelotti never felt the absolute need to introduce Ronaldinho, not to mention that in the summer of 2008, what the team really needed was not Ronaldinho, but a strong central defender.

Therefore, the Milan Sport pointed out that the real mistake of Ancelotti is not that he has not used Ronaldinho too much since then, but that he should not compromise with Berlusconi and accept the decision to introduce Ronaldinho.

Ancelotti tried to insert Ronaldinho into the ball, but from a technical point of view, his attempt did not get the greatest return.

In short, Ronaldinho doesn't like to run, but walks more on the field. However, in Serie A, those who don't run can't win the championship.

The previous debate between Berlusconi and Ancelotti has always been about the use of Ronaldinho. Berlusconi believes that Kaka and Ronaldinho's partner will be invincible, but it turns out that this theoretically correct view actually does not work. In Ronaldinho During the game, because his activity space was reduced, Kaka's contribution to the team was actually only half of that when Ronaldinho did not appear.

When it was necessary to make a choice between two people, Ancelotti made a 100% choice that any coach in the world would make, pinning his hopes on Kaka, and obviously Berlusconi had different opinions.

Because he can't find space in AC Milan, the depressed Ronaldinho is likely to leave AC Milan at the end of this season. However, in response to the rumors that the Brazilian superstar will return to Brazil to join Flamengo or Sao Paulo, Ronaldinho's brother, Assis, as his agent, said This is nonsense, claiming that if Ronaldinho leaves AC Milan, he will only join other European teams and will not return to Brazil.

In an interview with the Brazilian media, Assis said, "My brother will never return to Brazil like Ronaldo or Adriano, but he is likely to change his team in Europe."

However, Ronaldinho's fate at AC Milan is closely related to the team's head coach Ancelotti. If Ancelotti leaves the team at the end of the season, Ronaldinho may stay, and if Ancelotti stays, Ronaldinho is likely to transfer to Manchester City, or Another European giant team.

And Sao Paulo Club also denied the possibility of the team accepting Ronaldinho in advance before Assis issued a statement, because the superstar's annual salary of 15 million euros before tax is really beyond the capacity of São Paulo Club.

Although Berlusconi immediately slapped his big mouth after the bombardment and denied all the bullshit he said, the cracks have arisen, just like AC Milan changed Kaka from non-sale to sellable before.

Now the word "divorce" always revolves around the Italian Prime Minister, AC Milan boss Berlusconi. On the one hand, the divorce with his wife Veronica is making a lot of noise, and on the other hand, in the Milan team, when he severely criticized that "if Milan doesn't win the championship, the responsibility lies with Ancelotti", Ancelotti and AC Milan's marriage has also turned red.

Of course, with Ancelotti to distract Veronica's attention and influence, Berlusconi is probably playing public relations means, and Galliani is also very cooperative. The two of them sang a play with a white face and a red face.

It's just that Berlusconi was too direct and strict this time, and the media immediately exploded. Ancelotti hopes to stay in Milan to catch up with the record of AC Milan's legendary boss Rocco, and also hopes to make a difference in the Champions League again.

When the names of Allegri and Leonardo surfaced, Ancelotti immediately asked the club to renew his contract, but got a negative answer. AC Milan must guarantee the league results before deciding whether to renew the contract or not.

Ancelotti then began to find another way and accepted Chelsea's negotiation request for nearly a year. Chelsea gave a four-year contract with an annual salary of 7 million euros. In fact, Ancelotti had signed the agreement in advance, but on the condition that Milan would release it. Chelsea and Milan have a good relationship and everything is negotiable.

So, the names of Allegri and Leonardo and others were fired, and Ancelotti was very passive, but with Galliani's efforts, Ancelotti promised to renew the contract for one year if the conditions were ripe.

Previously, Ancelotti also said in an interview that he was planning to prepare for the next season with Galliani. The good results in recent months have repaired many cracks. Ancelotti and AC Milan have seen the hope of continued cooperation.

However, Berlusconi followed and attacked Ancelotti. Do you really want to give up Ancelotti completely?

So followed, Berlusconi began to pretend to be stupid and began to appease his men. Obviously, Berlusconi's big mouth not only hoped to take the initiative in the renewal of the contract, but also had a specific goal: Ronaldinho.

Ronaldinho has been out of the main force for more than three months. His brother and agent Assis said: "The possibility of a transfer after the season is not ruled out."

Ancelotti does not want Ronaldinho and Kaka to coexist, while Berlusconi looks forward to a more beautiful attack, which is his biggest disagreement with Ancelotti.

Berlusconi only tentatively competed with Ancelotti this time, and Ancelotti remained silent. Seeing that Ancelotti received support from Galliani to the locker room and more than 70% of the fans, Berlusconi would not continue to sing white, and even publicly said that he would take the initiative to renew his contract after ensuring the runner-up.

Although Ancelotti was angry, how could he persist for more than seven years if he didn't turn a deaf ear to Lao Bei's big mouth?

AC Milan is still looking forward to a great revival in the middle of turmoil. The league still needs to continue. While defeating Ascoli and continuing to advance towards the Coppa Italia championship, Fiorentina followed the 24th round of Serie A's victory over Genoa 3:2. Beckham did not enter the starting list in the game.

In the 12th minute of the game, Genoa took the lead, Milito knocked across the front of the penalty area on the right side, Marco. After Rosie got the ball, he volleyed and hit the ball into the lower left corner.

Immediately after Genoa expanded its lead in the 38th minute, Mesto broke through two defenders and entered the ball into the penalty area, and Paladino scored 2:0.

Two goals behind made the Fiorentina soldiers wake up like a dream. Three minutes later, Boketi kicked down Degan in the penalty area, and the purple lily also got a penalty. Mutu hit 2:1.

In the 80th minute, Digan took a free kick at the front of the penalty area and was hit by Rubino's throw, but the substitute Cavinage pushed into the net. 2:2, Fiorentina equalized the score.

When the game reached the third minute of stoppage time, Florence's fierce attack caused a scuffle on the edge of Genoa's penalty area. Beckham, who came on as a substitute, accidentally got the ball and pushed it into the net. 3:2, Fiorentina completed an incredible overtaking.

Immediately after that, Fiorentina had to compete with Lisbon Athletic in the second round of the first round of the Champions League knockout match. The big victory in the first round made the game basically lose the suspense.

Degan sat on the bench and Beckham started as if to give Beckham a gift. Under the recommendation of the players, Beckham also wore Florence's captain's armband in this game.

In an interview before the game, Beckham was also very excited about the team's decision: "This is a great honor. It's like a dream for me to be the captain of Florence."

Beckham, who wore the captain's armband, was also very powerful in this game. In addition to scoring a free kick in the first half, he also assisted Kavinage twice in a row in the second half. After the game, Beckham was naturally rated as the best player in the game.

"The captain's armband gave me strength. This feeling is very strange. The moment I walked on the court, I felt the great responsibility on my shoulders. The result was perfect and we won."

Returning to the league, in the 25th round of Serie A, Fiorentina defeated Chevo at home 2:1. In the 13th minute, Chevaux took the lead. After a corner kick, Yepes nodded his head and Moreno pushed into the net against Frey.

Florence did not equalize the score until the 73rd minute of the second half. Degan broke into the penalty area with the ball and shot the ball into the right side of the gate after getting rid of Jepes, 1:1.

When the game reached the injury stoppage time, Fiorentina had the last opportunity to attack. Digan broke through with the ball and knocked back. Mutu shot his right foot at the front of the penalty area, and the goalkeeper Sorenntino's leg was refracted into the net. 2:1, and Fiorentina completed the second consecutive game of overtaking.

In this round of the league, although AC Milan beat Cagliari 1-0, the topics and disputes brought about by the three points made AC Milan coach Ancelotti scratch his head a little, and internal and external troubles have to be dealt with.

Obviously, this unbeautiful victory made the fans dissatisfied. Unlike when Berlusconi criticized him before, the fans all stood on the side of Ancelotti. This time, the fans booed Ancelotti during the game.

Although Ancelotti tried his best to control his emotions at the post-match press conference, his words still showed dissatisfaction with the fans: "The fans are tired of always me in the coach's seat. I love Milan, just like the fans. I can accept their comments. I also understand that for more than seven years, I have always seen a face in the coach's bench, which can also deepen their criticism, but I won't blame the fans now. I know that their boos are not aimed at substitution, but more because we are now and Florence. Sa's point gap is now a difficult time for us, but we will get through the difficulties. Now we are facing the knockout match of the UEFA Cup. We want to win the championship. We really need the support of the fans for Bremen's home game.

Ancelotti took the initiative to ease the tension with the fans, and what makes people more concerned is the issue of Ancelotti's handsome position. Criticized by the boss Berlusconi, the large and small media began to hype up the possibility of changing the coach.

When discussing Anshuai's successor, the media have been mentioning Leonardo's name. The Milan manager is indeed taking classes at the Covilleciano Coaching Academy, but the succession is not realistic. He also said, "I'm studying for real, but I won't become Ancelotti's successor at all, at least now and recently. No, he is a great coach and we cooperate very well.

But in fact, Ancelotti's handsome position is still relatively stable, and Galliani is also very supportive of Ancelotti: "I emphasize again that we will move forward with Carlo, and we have full trust in him, Leonardo? I hope he will become the coach of Milan sooner or later, but not the 2009/2010 season. Now our team's goal is to enter the Champions League next season and win the UEFA Cup.

Galliani's words are loud, but when it comes to the UEFA Cup, his tone is sour, because Fiorentina and Inter Milan will face the Champions League next.

AC Milan is eager for revival, but the reality has to be faced. In fact, after AC Milan was kicked out of the Champions League by Fiorentina, who had already won the championship ahead of schedule, their proud dynasty has already collapsed.

Internal discord, the core players are facing a passing, a huge financial deficit, and the Berlusconi family is unwilling to continue to pay for AC Milan. Together, the final conclusion is that if you want to revive, it is completely a mirror, a dynasty that has already collapsed can be missed, but if If it is rebuilt, it will be a little difficult.
