Earlier, ESPN reporter Jorge Ramos reported a rather surprising news. The reporter said that Real Madrid president Florentino hopes that Haaland will join Barca and looks forward to recreating the situation of the former Mero competition.
"To put it bluntly, Florentino needs his best business partner, which is Barcelona. Therefore, Real Madrid and Barca must use Mbappe's showdown with Haaland to recreate the previous Mero struggle. While the outside world is still making boring comparisons, Florentino has begun to plan how to continue to make money with superstars to attract attention. ”
To be honest, this reporter's news was very surprising. Because Real Madrid and Barca are centuries-old mortal enemies, the two sides have always been Mars hitting the earth at the competitive level, vowing to fight for you to lose and I win. With Mbappe close to joining, Haaland is also expected to be in the pocket, and in the case of forming a new generation of "Galactical Battleships" again, Florentino actually "surrendered" a supernova like Haaland? Isn't that a little too perverse?
But I have to say that if Jorge Ramos's news is true, then Florentino's pattern and big picture view are really awe-inspiring. But it's also in line with Lafayette's usual style, and the most successful president of Real Madrid has always been "doing big things". And this time I hope that Haaland will join Barca, but also from the perspective of the entire La Liga league.
Since the mero competition has completely ended in La Liga, Real Madrid and Barcelona have gone downhill, and the collision between the two clubs can no longer find the grand situation of the "fan carnival" of that year, which directly makes the influence of La Liga fade step by step. Not only is it far thrown away by the Premier League, but it is also very likely to be chased by Serie A and the Bundesliga and even overtaken.
How can La Liga regain its former glory? It is impossible for Real Madrid alone to dominate. Any industry is the same, only competition can make progress; only competition can achieve mutual achievements. The reason why La Liga has attracted the attention of the world is not because of the glory of Real Madrid and Barca, but because of the love and killing of 2 clubs on the road to glory. La Liga is not like the Premier League, the Premier League has BIG6, there are new forces rising, but La Liga only Real Madrid and Barcelona two-man turn. Talking about Real Madrid without Barca, the aura of greatness fades and vice versa.
Therefore, only if Barca rises again can La Liga regain attention. And the more attention is paid, the economic interests will naturally come to fruition. If it is like the Bundesliga, it has always been bayern. No matter how many championships you win, it will not help the competitiveness of the entire league.
In addition, the salaries of players have generally increased, and with Mbappe, Real Madrid needs to pay an annual salary of 25 million yuan and a large signing fee. In addition, Real Madrid are also eyeing Rudiger, as well as potential targets such as Pogba, whose salaries will not be cheap.
Therefore, Real Madrid really can't afford to take down Haaland again. His salary will not be lower than Mbappe's, and the transfer fee, signing fee, commission, bonus together will certainly exceed 100 million or even close to 150 million euros. Since he is powerless to win, instead of letting such a future superstar fuel the influence of the Premier League, it is better to see him join Barca and bring another prosperity in La Liga.
