"Just call me Carl."

The Manchester City president, whose full name is Karduen-Al-Mubarak, said with a smile, and then he pushed a document in front of Lin Sen and said, "The problem you are talking about is not urgent. I have a plan for the club in the next ten years. You can take a look first."

Future planning?

Lin Sen picked up the file on the desktop half-believingly and started to read it, and then his expression began to change.

This is undoubtedly a grand plan, or to put it more realistically, it is undoubtedly a very expensive plan. This plan can be simply divided into two parts: off the court and inside the court.

Lin Sen is not very familiar with the plan outside the court. He only knows that the rumors that Manchester City is preparing to buy the city stadium and surrounding land are true. Not only is it true, but Manchester City also plans to rename the stadium in a sponsorship form and expand the stadium. In the area adjacent to the stadium, Manchester City is also preparing to build a new modern training base. In addition, Manchester City also plans to promote the brand globally, which even includes the acquisition of overseas teams...

On the stadium, Manchester City's plan is so clear that Lin Sen is a little unbelievable: in the first stage, he will become one of the best teams in the Premier League within three years and strive for the Premier League championship; in the second stage, he will win the Premier League championship within five years and become one of the best teams in Europe. In the third stage, he will win the European Championship within ten years.

When Lin Sen found that he didn't know what to say, because he didn't know how to comment on such a grand and expensive plan. But obviously, if he gave such a plan to the old man in Manchester who made all Manchester City fans gritted his teeth, he would definitely be able to ridicule Manchester City's senior executives as a terror, because in the football world, there is a saying that is that money can't buy a championship.

Compared with the off-court part of this plan that only takes time and money to gradually realize, the on-court plan that sets an "alarm clock" for the champion is obviously too presumptuous, because the relationship between money and the champion has never been an inevitable relationship, but a probability issue. In other words, investment can increase the probability of winning the championship, but it does not mean that you will definitely win the championship.

However, Lin Sen couldn't laugh at the plan in front of him, not because his position did not allow it, but because he saw Manchester City's determination.

Lin Sen has always been wondering why Mubarak didn't mention the transfer matter when he met last time. At that time, he thought that the negotiations between the two sides had not reached that level, but now he knows why, and at the same time, he also knows why Mubarak asked himself to look at this plan at this time, and also knows why Mubarak told him not to hurry.

In this plan, Lin Sen saw a line of words in the first phase of the plan: In order to more effectively realize the club's plan, the club's investment in the transfer market will not be less than 100 million in each season in the next three years.

One hundred million!

No less than 100 million!!

Although this is just a plan, Lin Sen fully believes that the reason why Mubarak came up with such a plan for himself at this time was obviously impossible to just draw a big cake for himself, and his memory also told him that all this was not false. Thinking of this, Lin Sen seemed to see someone tell you, how much does a pound of championship cost? Millions? Tens of millions? One million? One billion?

This is still a probability issue, but it is obviously a different probability.

Lin Sen told himself in his heart: Be calm, be calm.

Mubarak looked at Lin Sen's expression change after reading the plan he pushed over with interest, and then watched Lin Sen's silence. This was the best reaction he could have expected, because he still remembers how wonderful the Welsh coach's face was when he put the plan in front of Mark Hughes last year.

"What are your thoughts?" Mubarak asked.

"The club is not short of money." Lin Sen told the truth.

When Mubarak heard Lin Sen's words, he was stunned and then laughed. Yes, this is the key. Manchester City clubs are not short of money, so the so-called transfer budget does not need to be discussed at all. To be honest, as long as the player Lin Sen likes and as long as the player is willing to come, there will be no obstacles. This is the confidence that Manchester City clubs have accumulated with money at the moment.

At this time, before Lin Sen could speak, Mubarak, who was not shocking, said another sentence.

"As you can see, the club conservatively estimates that there will be a transfer investment of 100 million in the new season. And if there is a goal that can enhance the club's influence, the club will also increase the transfer investment, and the funds will be around 50 million. In addition, the team's entire transfer income will become transfer funds without reservation."

A total of 100 million regular transfer funds, plus 50 million superstar exclusive funds, plus potential transfer funds from transfer income...

This is more than one hundred million or two hundred million?

Even though he had known that Manchester City was not short of money, Lin Sen still felt a little breathing when he realized what the transfer budget Mubarak said was.

He told himself to be calm, but at this time, how many coaches can stay calm? What is the concept of 200 million? That means Manchester City can buy almost a team of players with an average value of 20 million. What is the concept of 20 million players? Among the two famous transfers that may happen this summer in Lin Sen's memory, Sneijder's transfer to Inter Milan is 15 million, and Robben's transfer to Bayern is 25 million.

Having endless transfer fees is the dream of every coach. Lin Sen, who is in a difficult mood, is also very clear in his heart. He cannot be happy too early. Because one thing is very clear, the reason why Malaga gave him the transfer rights last season was not entirely because he made sacrifices in his personal salary. One of the biggest reasons is that Malaga does not have much transfer budget at all. And Manchester City has such a transfer budget, then, it is obvious that Manchester City cannot let Lin Sen control the transfer rights alone like Malaga.

The more Manchester City's transfer budget, the less likely Lin Sen can monopolize the power.

"I think this is not what you want to say the most, right? Carl." Lin Sen, who was silent for a moment and gradually calmed down, looked at Mubarak and said, hoping that this was not a sign that the other party asked him to give up his transfer right.

"I understand your thoughts, Lin." Mubarak smiled and said at the words of Linson. "I won't say your concerns are redundant, but we don't plan to make you a full-time coach. I personally appreciate your job in Malaga, which is the main reason why we chose you. So, in terms of transfer affairs, you won't be just a bystander. So, we will give you the same transfer voice as Brian, and you will be responsible for the team's transfer work with him."

Currently, there are two Brians at Manchester City club, and they have not been here for a long time. One is Football Director Brian Mawood, hired at the beginning of this year to share the job of CY Gary Cook, and the other is youth team coach Brian Kidd, who has just joined the company for less than a month. Interestingly, these two people have played for a club during their players' age, that is, Arsenal.

Compared with Brian Mawood, he is undoubtedly more familiar with Brian Kid City fans, because after he played for Manchester United, Arsenal and Manchester City, he served as an assistant coach of Manchester United, his arch rival Manchester United in the 1990s, and there is still a saying that it is believed that a large part of the glory of Manchester United in the 1990s is attributed to him. Many Manchester United players were his subordinates. As for why Kidd later left Manchester United, it was because of a failed head coaching experience. After that experience, he returned to his old career - assistant coach. Although Kidd was a youth team coach at Manchester City this time, he was actually the assistant coach prepared by Manchester City for the new head coach. Of course, all this depends on Lin Sen's own meaning now.

The Brian in Mubarak's mouth naturally refers not to Kidd, but Ma Wood.

The so-called equal voice means that Lin Sen can propose a transfer plan, Ma Wood can modify the transfer plan, and vice versa. The so-called responsibility together means that the two must cooperate, because if the two agree, it is naturally easy to say, but if the opinions are not consistent, a team obviously cannot have two transfer plans. Even if there are, one will definitely become a backup plan.

You want the transfer right, yes, but not all of it.

This is Manchester City’s plan, or Mubarak’s plan. In short, it is to put a spell on you. For those who are already familiar with Mubarak, this is a typical Mubarak style, because he always firmly believes that balance comes from constraints.

Linson also noticed that Mubarak did not mention the team's ceo Gary Cook, which surprised Linson, because Gary Cook was an important figure in Manchester City's transfer last season. But now it seems that Nike executives before the new season will likely focus more on matters that he is better at. As for whether he will interfere in the transfer affairs, it is unknown, because it is normal whether he interferes or not.

Lin Sen is definitely not satisfied with the transfer rights plan proposed by Mubarak, because compared to Malaga's "checks and balances", although Manchester City's restriction method seems to be no different, it is actually much more troublesome. In Malaga, Lin Sen only needs to consider that his transfer plan does not exceed the fiscal permission, and Livermore has no reason to make things difficult for him. In Manchester City, finance is no longer a problem, but Lin Sen has to face the possibility that his transfer goal will be rejected.

However, Lin Sen must also admit that this is already the greatest accommodation from Manchester City to him.

After all, with a transfer budget of 200 million yuan, even if you deposit it in the bank, you have to choose which one to deposit. How could Manchester City let itself do whatever it wants as soon as it takes office?
