Chapter 219 Signing

After getting Park Ji-yeon's upper sword, Degan immediately called Zahavi, and Zahavi got the exact information and began to act.

Florence is not a listed club. All the shares are in the hands of the Delaware family. Since 2002, the Delaware family has been in charge of Florence for more than 20 years. In these 20 years, the most brilliant of course is the four seasons where Degan played here.

However, since Digan's departure, Florence has been getting worse and worse. Although it can barely maintain the middle level of Italian football, with the less and less investment of the Dela family in Florence, it is obvious that the king of leather shoes's enthusiasm for football has gradually cooled down.

Andre. Delawalai also left the club the year before last and handed over the club to his youngest son to take care of. Although his successor was full of enthusiasm for football, he could not reproduce the glory of the original Purple Lily Dynasty. After so many years, Florence has become a chicken rib in the hands of the Delavalai family. It is a pity to abandon it.

And Zahavi's idea of playing Fiorentina is not a day or two. Since Degan was injured at the beginning of this season, he has been helping Degan find a way out. Now that Tottenham can't tolerate Degan, he will go to Florence and continue to be active in the football circle as a boss and player. Go, obviously, is the best way out.

At present, the value of Florence has previously estimated that it is only 300 million pounds at best. The reason why the value is not high is that Florence does not have its own home court. The Flagy Stadium belongs to the city government of Florence, and even the training base in Florence is rented.

To put it bluntly, what Fiorentina is really valuable is the players in the current team at all levels, as well as the history and honors of Fiorentina.

This season, although Fiorentina reached the top six in the league and won the Coppa Italia, it will not have much impact on the value of the club.

After two days of preparation, Zahavi, as the representative of Degan, went to Florence and met with the current president of the club, Dela, Jr.

Little Delaware is only in his thirties. He is a crazy fan, especially for Degan, and he is even more worshipful. So when Zahavi came to Florence, he has been brewing a big plan in his heart.

Obviously, Delava Jr. has no intention of selling the team at this moment. What he wants is to get Degan back to Vlaki.

"What? Acquire the club! Impossible, it's impossible! Florence belongs to the Delaware family, and I can't sell it to anyone at all! I love Florence more than anyone else. I want to lead the purple lily to regain its glory.

Little Delava's reaction is completely in Zahavi's expectation. Unlike his father, Little Delava is a fanatical fan chairman like Moratti. His love for Florence is no less than anyone else, and all he thinks about is to let Florence reproduce the glory of that year.

Unfortunately, he has received too little help from his family over the years. Every season, he needs to run up and down for the transfer fee. Fiorentina has also begun to gradually decline in this low investment. Although he can still maintain his identity as a team in the middle reaches of Serie A, it is not enough to say that he will regain glory. It's just a dream.

"Chairman Delaware, as a friend of your father, I must explain to you that I am here on the commission of my employer, Mr. Wright. His love for Florence is no less than yours, and the current situation in Florence wants to reproduce the Purple Lily King. The glory of the dynasty is impossible, unless there is a lot of money injected to help the team bring in better players. The Dela family will not take out this money, but my employer, Mr. Wright, can. Do you want to watch the purple lily continue to wither? If you really love Florence as much as you said, you should not hold it, but take the initiative to let go and hand over the purple lily into the hands of a person who can make it shine again! Do you understand?"

Little Delaware was stunned. He had to admit that Zahavi's words were very reasonable. Thinking of this, he hated the decision makers in the family, all of whom were typical Venetian merchants, so stingy that they were unwilling to spend a penny more on Florence.

But he is reluctant to let him sell Florence, and he can't make the decision. Moreover, if Degan can really come back, he may not need a lot of investment, and the team can regain its glory.

"Mr. Zahavi, I think this matter is not suitable for us to continue the discussion today. Why don't we change our mind? If Degan is willing to join Florence, I think Purple Lily can return to its former height even without a large amount of money. You can rest assured that I am willing to give the top salary of the Degan Club, 10 million euros, or even higher!"

When little Delava came to speak, he was also thinking about what Florence should do if he wanted to meet Degan's annual salary requirements.

It is necessary to transfer those high-paying players, but how can we make enough salary space?

Zahavi will not consider this suggestion at all. What he wants to do is to find a way out for Degan. Even if Degan can really play until the age of 50, there will always be a day when he retires. What should he do after retirement?

Be a so-called famous football player!?

That's not the life trajectory that Zahavi is willing to plan for Digan!

Becoming the boss of Florence, leading Florence back to glory and making Degan the most successful football player in history is what Zahavi wants to see.

"I'm sorry, Chairman Delava. I think I can only let you down. My employer doesn't have this plan. What I need is to take full control of Florence and then rebuild this team according to his ideas!"

Seeing Zahavi's refusal, little Dela couldn't hide his disappointment: "Okay! Mr. Zahavi, since you said so, I don't think we need to continue talking about it. I will never agree to sell Florence. There is no need to talk about it at all!"

When Zahavi heard this, he did not continue to insist. He got up and left, but he gave up like this. That was not Zahavi's style of doing things. Since little Dela didn't want to come, he would simply go to old Delaware.

Because of the relationship between Digan, the relationship between Zahavi and old Dela has always been good. In addition, many of the players who played for Fiorentina before are owned by Zahavi, and the personal relationship is really good.

When Zahavi contacted Old Delaware and showed his intention, Old Delaware was inevitably moved.

In fact, since Degan left, old Delaware's mind about football has faded. Although he likes football, he is a businessman. He value interests and money. Now Florence obviously can't bring him benefits. In this case, it seems that it is not impossible to sell the Florence club. Accepted.

Of course, it depends on how much money Degan is willing to pay!

Zahavi directly offered the acquisition price of 200 million euros. As expected, Old Delava refused without even thinking about it.

"My old friend, are you kidding? 200 million euros wants to buy the Florence Club! This is impossible at all. I think as a personal experience of the Purple Lily Dynasty, you won't know the value of Florence!"

Zahavi laughed and said, "Of course, I know that if it had been 12 years ago, I think Rod would be willing to pay 500 million to buy Florence in the UEFA Champions League, but Andrea! I think you should also wake up a little. Is Florence still the team that established the Purple Lily Dynasty? At present, many players in the first team and the youth team are signed by me. Don't I know their value? And the Vlaki Stadium does not belong to the Florence Club, and even the training base is rented by others. In addition to the players in the teams at all levels and the office building, the Florence Club has nothing valuable at all? History? Can history become real money?

Drava has to admit that Zahavi's words are indeed reasonable, but~~~~~~~~

"Two billion euros is too little. I can't explain it to the family's board at all!"

Speaking of this, Zahavi has been convinced that the old Delaware has made up his mind to sell the Florence Club. No one will defend a hen who lays golden eggs, but now Florence can't lay golden eggs, not even ordinary eggs. Such a club is in his hand, although it can Let the Delaware family gain fame, but there is no real economic benefits. Every season, the family still needs to invest a lot in Florence and continue to hold Florence in its hands, which is meaningless.

"Elan! I can sell Florence, but it must not be 200 million euros. If Rod wants the team, he must show enough sincerity!"

Zahavi nodded without any doubt: "So Andre, how much do you think is appropriate?"

Old Delaware came to look at Zahavi's face and tried to report a number: "410 million euros!"

Zahavi was stunned when he heard this, and then got up and was about to leave: "Andre, you just said you wanted to let Degan show enough sincerity, but it's a pity that I can't see any sincerity you showed. 450 million euros, are you kidding? If Rod is willing to take out the money, he can totally buy the Rome Club!"

This season, Roma reached the top three of the league and got a ticket to the UEFA Champions League qualifiers. Judging from the trend of next season alone, it is obvious that Roma has an advantage in acquiring.

Old Delaware also knew that the price he offered was a little high, but he didn't expect Zahavi to refuse without even thinking about it: "Wait! Wait! Elan! I don't think there is much disagreement between us, and we can continue to discuss it!"

Old Delaware is really determined to sell Florence now. He doesn't even want to discuss it with the little Delaware. He just wants to get rid of Florence as soon as possible.

How about 400 million euros? Elan! You know, even so, I need to make an explanation to the family board. If the price can't satisfy the vampires in the family, they won't nod!"

Zaharvi laughed in his heart. When it comes to vampires, who else in the Delaware family can compare with the Andrea in front of him. Delaware.

"No! That's impossible. Florence is not worth that money now, Andre! I'm not a rookie. I know better than you about the football industry. The current value of Florence is a little more than 200 million euros. You offer 400 million euros, my God! I really don't know what you think!"

Old Delaware naturally knows that he can't hide Zahavi, a shrewd man in the industry, but 200 million euros, he can't agree at all, but if the Florence club is not sold and continues to invest in this team, the opposition within the family will only be even greater.

Old Delaware is still thinking about letting his youngest son take over the family business. If this matter is not handled well, the support rate of Delava Jr. within the family will only continue to decline. What should he do then?

"37 million, this is my bottom line!"

Old Delaware said and didn't forget to look up at Zahavey's face, but let him down. He didn't see anything.

" 250 million euros, which is also my bottom line. Beyond this money, I think Rod can only give up the acquisition plan!"

Drava came to hear this and was so angry that he really wanted to curse his mother and sell Florence. That's for sure. In fact, since last season, he has begun to contact those oil godfathers, but those Middle Easterners are not interested in Florence because they are very xenophobic and they are even willing to accept it. Once foreign capital enters their beloved team, the opposition of Fiorentina fans can be imagineable.

If you analyze carefully, it is the best decision to let Degan take over the Florence club. Degan is the greatest player in the history of Florence, and the fans will not reject him. Secondly, the Delaware family can also get rid of a big burden.

But the price gap between the two is really too big.

Next, the two, like businessmen, had a repeated tug-of-war on price. The negotiations lasted for two days. On the day before the Champions League final, the two sides finally reached a consensus, 300 million UEFA Champions League, and Florence changed owners.

Degan, who followed the team to Milan, also left his name on the club's share transfer agreement in the hotel.

From today, Degan will become the owner of the Florence club, but this matter cannot be announced before the end of the Champions League final.
