Chapter 864: Win Bayern Munich
"According to the exact information obtained by our reporter from the Hamburg prosecutor in Germany, Hamburg Club Chairman Carl Edgar Khoff was taken away from his home this morning by the German prosecutor and is currently assisting in the investigation by the procuratorate."
"It is reported that nearly 20 board members, as well as club senior management, were taken away at the same time as Khoff, including football director Kruze, and nearly 20 board members, as well as club senior management. This will be the largest corruption case in Hamburg Club's history."
"Since not long ago, many media have successively announced the corruption of the management of Hamburg Club in Germany, although Khoff and the Hamburg Board of Directors have publicly denied the rumors, they still cannot calm the doubts of the outside media and fans."
"Early this morning, the photo newspaper was the first to reveal the inside information, revealing Hamburg's debts over the past years and the corruption in the team's operations. The German prosecutor also received information and clues last night and made the decision to arrest people overnight, which obviously also had sufficient evidence."
"Since the start of the new season, Hamburg has changed the poor record of the relegation team in the past two seasons. Under the leadership of the new coach Thomas Tuchel, he has won consecutive victories and remains unbeaten to this day. He is on par with Bayern Munich, which makes Hamburg fans feel very pleased."
"But at the same time, the corruption of Hamburg management has become an indelible shadow on the fans."
"Now, the arrest of the board member led by Carl Edgar Khoff has not only made Hamburg fans applaud, but also made fans feel very worried, fearing that the team will fall into turmoil again."
"For this reason, we specially connected with Dan Jones, the famous Bundesliga chief researcher of Deloitte, and let's hear what the experts say."
The picture turned on the TV and a middle-aged German appeared.
"Hello, Jones."
"Hello, host!"
"We all know that you are specialized in studying the Bundesliga. What do you think about the Hamburg management this time?"
"I'm not surprised at all."
"Not surprised?"
"Yes, because the news has been around for a long time. In fact, a few years ago, the problems about Hamburg management have always existed. How did his ex-Hoffman get out of class? How did Khoff come to power?"
After a pause, Dan Jones continued: "In fact, in recent years, the Hamburg management has been bad, which is famous in the Bundesliga. The management led by Khoff has never done much. Even when he bought Van der Fate, there were some scandals."
"Oh, what scandal?"
"The Hamburg board of directors first released the news to arouse the emotions of the fans, and then had almost talked with Van der Fate. Then, they invited several wealthy fans, including Kuhn and Otto, and said that the club had no money and asked them to pay."
"And in recent years, the marketing manager Hilk, who Khoff trusted, was able to take charge of the marketing department, not because of his excellent ability, but because he has a good relationship with Kuhn and Otto, which is well known."
"Well, Jones, as you say, is the burger problem a long time ago?"
"Yes, but professional teams have always adhered to internal solutions in the past. Therefore, once there is a problem with Hamburg's management, fans and sponsors have a fight, or when the team has poor performance, the management will change the other way, but after a while, one wave is worse than another."
"Then how do you view Khoff? Some people say that this time he had an internal power struggle, what do you think?"
"First of all, I must say, this is definitely an internal power struggle, but I think it's normal."
“How to say it?”
"When Hamburg was undergoing shareholding reform, I once said that Khhoff and others, as well as the poor management of Hamburg, would definitely have problems. At that time, either investors would run away or Khhoff and others would fall."
“It turns out that my original prediction was correct.”
"Investors who come to invest in Hamburg definitely don't want to see the same type of corruption reappear again. They also hope to form a professional and efficient management team. So we see Thomas Lake, who previously worked at Deutsche Bank, entered the core management team. To be honest, he is the most professional elite in Hamburg's history."
"Then it was highly recognized by Hamburg fans. The former celebrity Bairsdorf returned to Hamburg and served as technical director. He was swept out of the house in the struggle for power, and his return immediately showed results."
"Coach Tuchel, several new players in the team, and players who came from loans from multiple teams, have shown amazing strength. More importantly, he has drastically eliminated a large number of players in the team who are highly paid but incapable. Therefore, the spirit of Hamburg's new season has been completely renewed."
"You mean, Hamburg's outstanding performance this season, investors and the new management team have made a big contribution?"
"Of course, that's for sure."
"However, now there are also concerns that once Khhoff and others fall, will investors take this opportunity to acquire hamburgers?"
"I can't say this, but as far as I know, the German Football Association has corresponding rules and regulations, and investors will not buy it if they want to. But on the other hand, I think it might be better to be acquired by investors than Khoff and others."
"But it's hard for fans to accept that the team they believe in is a foreign investor."
"This is a process of getting used to slowly, just like the Premier League. Now most Premier League teams are foreign investors, but it does not prevent Premier League fans from continuing to be loyal to their teams and continuing to have fun in the professional league."
But at this point, Dan Jones changed his tone, "But I also think it may be difficult for foreign capital to acquire it. Fan factors do need to be considered. And if one is not handled well, Hamburg may continue to be turbulent. This should be a situation that all parties are unwilling to see."
"Well, OK, thanks Dan Jones for the wonderful analysis."
...
At noon, during the break, in the players' entertainment room of the Hamburg Training Base, first-team players were staring at the TV blankly, and everyone's faces looked worried.
They only received the news after the morning training class, and only then did they know that so many people in the board of directors and management were taken away by the German prosecutors, which was no less than a major earthquake.
It is said to assist in the investigation, but what about it?
The new players are better, but the old players seem to be very clean among these people.
So, they were all worried that the team had such a big earthquake, what would happen next? Where should they go?
Many people called their agents to learn more about the situation.
But in fact, brokers may not get more information than they do.
"Don't worry, nothing should happen!"
As the team's new captain, Croatian midfielder Badley felt that he should stand up and say a few words.
After the summer purge, he should be one of the few old ministers in the team, so he was appointed as the captain.
On weekdays, he is also good at dealing with people and things, and he is the core of the team's midfield, so everyone is quite convinced of him.
"Yes, nothing will happen!" veteran Drogney also spoke.
"Isn't it just management changes? Hamburgers come out like this every three or four years, it's no big deal."
But when everyone said that, they still had doubts.
Those players on loan are better. Even if they can't stay in Hamburg, they can return to their parent team early.
But for some players who belong to Hamburg, this is related to their future. How can you not worry?
At this moment, I saw a group of people walking over from the opposite Renmin Park Stadium, passing through the gate, and heading straight for the training building.
There were a lot of people, with more than a dozen people, and the leader was a young man in his early twenties, including head coach Tuchel, youth training director Bernhard Pitts, technical director Dietma Bairsdorf, and CEO Thomas Reek, plus several other club executives, all surrounded him, forming a large formation.
"Hey, who is that?"
"Yes, it seems a bit familiar..."
"Young Master!" said Januzai.
He recognized it!
"Master Huan?"
"Which Young Master Huan?"
"Adnan, are you talking about..."
Januzai nodded heavily, "Yes, that's the boss of our saints, Yang Huan, Master Huan!"
Everyone was surprised because most of the people present had never seen Master Huan at all.
Even Badley had only heard the sound, but never saw anyone.
As for players like Gordino, Hoyber, Koeman and Douglas Costa who were loaned to Hamburg, they basically didn't have the chance to meet Master Huan. It would be nice to meet Ron Gurley.
Until Yang Huan and others approached, people who had occasionally seen Master Huan recognized him one after another.
As for the others, they all met Yang Huan through the newspaper, so they all confirmed it.
It turns out that Young Master Huan is really a shareholder of Hamburg.
In this way, everyone was relieved.
Who doesn’t know that Master Huan is rich and powerful in Europe?
Looking at Southampton where he runs, who doesn't want to serve under his command?
When Yang Huan and others walked into the training building one after another and walked to the players' lounge, they saw that the group of players had been waiting for a long time, and couldn't help but smile.
"How is it? Are you surprised to see me?" Yang Huan asked with a smile.
Some of the players on the opposite side shook their heads, some nodded, and they were in a mess.
This also made Bairsdorf, Tuchel and others smiled, not prepared in advance.
"I'm going to see you today!"
Yang Huan walked to the players with a smile.
"I know, there are a lot of news, even rumors outside now, but I want to tell everyone that the situation has been controlled and there will be no problem with the hamburger. Khoff and other rice-boring insects have been removed. This is a good thing for hamburgers, fans and us!"
"I am here to promise all of you that everything on the team will remain the same, and even the benefits and bonuses of the team will be better and more perfect than before, and our team will be more professional. Many of you must know my philosophy, that is, I want our players to play without worries!"
This is also Southampton’s philosophy!
"The game against Bayern Munich is coming soon. I hope that everyone will not be affected by this turmoil in management, and can focus on the game without distraction, and strive to win Bayern Munich at home!"
Want to defeat Bayern Munich at home?
The players look at me and I look at you, and they all think this goal is a bit big.
Who is Bayern Munich?
Bundesliga class bully!
Can you just take it?
Yang Huan looked at them and laughed, "Now the club's financial department has started to calculate statistics. In the past, the salary and bonuses owed by players will be paid within two days."
After Master Huan's words, the players below were all happy.
Which one who works is willing to be owed by his boss’ salary and bonus?
"In addition, I personally promise here that as long as I can win Bayern Munich in this game, I will personally take out another 5 million euros as a bonus, and I will pay it immediately after the game is over, and I will never go back on my word!"
What?
Five million euros?
The prize money for a game?
The players were all stunned and stunned!
Is this too rich?
Chapter completed!
