1096 Debt quagmire

Cristiano Ronaldo eventually transferred to Barcelona in La Liga!

Just as July was approaching, Barcelona couldn't wait to officially announce this superstar transfer that shocked the world.

This also announces that Barcelona will have the most luxurious and top superstar lineup in the new season. Even stars like Sanchez have to sit on the bench at the Camp Nou, which shows how amazing Barcelona's lineup is.

The transfer fee is as high as 100 million euros, tying the world transfer fee record set by Yang Yang when he joined Real Madrid from Liverpool four years ago. Not only that, the Portuguese's annual salary in Barcelona will also reach an astonishing 16 million euros, after tax!

Just in February this year, Barcelona had just reached a contract renewal agreement with Messi, increasing Messi's liquidated damages to an astonishing 250 million euros, and also increasing his annual salary after tax to 16 million euros, second only to Real Madrid in the world football world, and Etoo of Anzhi, the Russian Super League.

Now, Barcelona gives Cristiano Ronaldo the same salary and benefits as Messi, and they are all after taxes, which is undoubtedly quite surprising, because it means that Barcelona will bear a heavier salary burden.

After Cristiano Ronaldo joined Barcelona, ​​Yang Yang ranked first in the world player salary ranking with an annual after-tax salary of 25 million euros. Real Madrid is still actively renewing his contract, but this time Yang Yang did not make a request for a salary increase, but wanted to maintain the current situation.

Etoo ranked second with 20 million euros, Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo tied for third place, followed by Paris Saint-Germain's Ibrahimovic, Barcelona's Iniesta and Neymar, whose annual salary is expected to be around 15 million euros.

That is to say, in the top ten of the world's football salary rankings, Barcelona occupies four seats. This is a very amazing number, and it also proves that while Barcelona has the most luxurious top-level lineup in the world, it also bears salary pressure that the outside world cannot imagine.

But even so, on the day Cristiano Ronaldo signed with Barcelona, ​​tens of thousands of Barcelona fans still flocked to the Camp Nou Stadium to witness the joining of the Portuguese superstar.

Everyone believes that he will become another Portuguese superstar who shines in Barcelona after Figo, and will also become another Ronaldo, helping Barcelona overthrow Real Madrid's dominance in La Liga.

This is a crazy solo show. The joining of Cristiano Ronaldo has triggered an earthquake around the world. Countless fans are cheering for this amazing transfer, and are also full of expectations for La Liga, especially Barcelona in the new season.

Countless media have scrambled to report that Barcelona, ​​which has just won the Champions League championship, will continue to dominate European football after winning Cristiano Ronaldo, and Real Madrid, which has begun to reduce investment in the past two years, will be knocked down in the new season.

Major European bookmakers have also offered odds. Barcelona is ahead of the championship battles between La Liga, Copa del Rey and Champions League, and is far ahead, proving that the joining of superstars has greatly increased the outside world's optimism about Barcelona.

On the other hand, although Real Madrid still ranks second, its momentum is obviously not as good as before.

Everyone believes that the combination of Yang Yang, Robben, Hazard and Di Maria will be eclipsed in front of Messi, Cristiano Ronaldo, Neymar and Sanchez.

While the outside world was in a hurry and was frantically enthusiastic about Barcelona, ​​the Secret Report of Spain quietly released a report, reposting Forbes' statistical report. The report showed that although Real Madrid missed the Champions League last season, their revenue throughout the season was as high as 670 million euros, far ahead of all sports clubs in the world.

Sixty-seventy-million euros!

What an amazing number this is?

It can be said to be a number that all giant teams cannot imagine or even believe!

According to Forbes' report, Real Madrid's revenue has been rising for four consecutive years. The revenue of 670 million euros mainly comes from three parts, game broadcasting rights income, game day income and commercial sponsorship income. Among them, the first two account for about half, and commercial sponsorship income accounts for nearly half of Real Madrid's fiscal revenue.

Forbes also deeply analyzed Real Madrid's commercial revenue, believing that the fastest growth rate is North America and Asia, which is a key area that all the giant teams have been scrambling to develop in the past few years, while Real Madrid relied on the momentum of top star Yang Yang to harvest wildly in these two areas.

In contrast, although Barcelona has been committed to developing North American and Asian markets in the past few years, its fiscal revenue is only 490 million euros, far behind Real Madrid, and this is when Barcelona won the Champions League championship.

The confidential report also revealed that Real Madrid has added huge debts due to the renovation of the Bernabeu Stadium and the construction of the office building of the Valdebebas training base. However, due to the extremely low interest rate and a very long time, judging from Real Madrid's current fiscal revenue, the ability to repay loans is no pressure and no burden.

On the contrary, Barcelona, ​​during the administration of Laporta, the team's debt reached 430 million euros, which is a collapsed number. After Rossel took office, he has been committed to reducing the team's debts and spent three years reducing it to 330 million euros, which is regarded as a major political achievement of Rossel.

However, according to data disclosed in the confidential report, due to the huge amount of money spent last year to introduce Neymar, coupled with the signings from Mathieu and Alexander Song, the team's debt in the past year has not decreased, but has increased a little.

Especially this summer, the 100 million euros introduced by Cristiano Ronaldo are all from bank loans, which will bring Barcelona's debt back to a historical high of more than 400 million. Not only that, Cristiano Ronaldo's annual after-tax salary of up to 16 million euros will further intensify the club's salary expenditure, which is expected to exceed 70% of the team's fiscal revenue, which is definitely an unhealthy figure.

In contrast, Real Madrid has been kept between 40% and 50%, which is undoubtedly quite healthy.

Confidential reports believe that Spain's economic situation is not good, but Real Madrid's operations are not losing money but making money. One of the important reasons is the amazing commercial value brought by Yang Yang. Coupled with the team's outstanding performance, it has brought huge psychological pressure to its arch-rival Barcelona, ​​which has forced Barcelona to launch an arms race and introduce superstars for two consecutive seasons.

"But Barcelona must have a clear understanding. It is undoubtedly unrealistic to have such a large-scale superstar army when fiscal revenue cannot keep up with Real Madrid. This will eventually drag Barcelona into an unextinguishable debt quagmire."

With the outside world excitedly hyping up Cristiano Ronaldo to Camp Nou, the report from the Secret Report did not attract much attention, and everyone was more excited and excited about the joining of the Portuguese superstar.

At least, for ordinary Barcelona fans and members, superstars are more attractive than debts that cannot be understood.

Catalan media also revealed that Neymar is submitting an application with Barcelona, ​​hoping to renew his contract and increase his salary. He hopes to catch up with Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo, and strive to raise the salary every year from 2014 to about 10 million euros.

But Barcelona officials ignored such rumors and obviously planned to deal with them in a cold manner.

With Barcelona's current finances, after introducing Cristiano Ronaldo, it will inevitably adopt a method of increasing revenue and reducing expenditure to control the club's expenses, and at the same time find new and powerful sponsors to increase the team's fiscal revenue, including a jersey advertising contract with Qatar Airways. Barcelona hopes to reach 60 million euros to tie Real Madrid.

…………

When the whole world was still immersed in the earthquake where Cristiano Ronaldo joined Barcelona, ​​Real Madrid officially announced in a low-key manner that they would introduce Uruguayan striker Luis Suarez from Liverpool at a high price of 50 million euros.

In an interview with the media in Uruguay, Suarez said that he already belonged to Real Madrid, and he also apologized for his previous bite of Ivanovic.

"A few days ago, Yang Yang called me and I accepted the advice he gave me. I will receive counseling from a psychologist in Madrid. I hope I can solve this problem."

As for the upcoming Real Madrid trip, Suarez said he was looking forward to it.

"There is no doubt that I want to play football with Yang Yang. He is a great player. In the past, now, and in the future, he is the best in my mind. I think it is an honor and a pride for all professional players to be able to fight alongside players like him on the court."

Suarez promised that he would cooperate with Yang Yang at Real Madrid and devote all his life.

But compared with Cristiano Ronaldo's transfer, Suarez has no hope of contending in terms of fame or transfer fees, and there is no big publicity from the outside world. Many media even believe that this is a compromise made by Real Madrid when they cannot introduce Aguero.

This undoubtedly makes people look further down on the prospects of Real Madrid's new season.

But in fact, Isco, Ilia La Mendi, Danilo, Casemiro and Suarez, Real Madrid invested more than 130 million euros in the transfer market this summer, while Barcelona has only introduced one player Cristiano Ronaldo so far, spending 100 million euros.

But the attractiveness of superstars is obviously greater. The joining of Portuguese superstars has completely made Barcelona the focus of the European transfer market, while Real Madrid is somewhat overshadowed in comparison.

But now Real Madrid is no longer the declining nobleman four years ago. The Galaxy battleships are three consecutive Champions League titles, three La Liga titles, and a Grand Slam season. At the same time, they were also the top team that won the double La Liga title last season. They have already created a personality of not being surprised by favors and disgraces, and they will not and do not need to compete for such a front.
