How important is a rich boss to the team? Look at Abu Cher and Glazer's Manchester United, and maybe you get it. In 2003, the Russian billionaire Abu had wanted to buy Manchester United, but unfortunately Manchester United refused, Abu turned around and bought Chelsea, 17 years, 3 billion pounds of investment, Abu helped Chelsea win 17 titles, they returned to the peak. On the Manchester United side, Glazer only focused on the team to make money for himself, and the good Premier League giants were reduced to the mediocre teams they are today.
Compared to Manchester United, Manchester City is happy. In 2000, Manchester City returned to the Premier League after some effort, but in the following years, due to the lack of sufficient funds, Manchester City did not suffer relegation, but the results were average. In 2008, huge debts left City a bit breathless.
Who can save Manchester City from fire and water? At this time, the Saudi billionaire Al-Mansour appeared. However, Mansour is not only interested in Manchester City, it is reported that Mansour visited at least three Premier League teams that year, and in the end, Manchester City was lucky to get the boss. Mansour spent £180 million to get Manchester City and repaid more than £20 million in debt to the team, costing a total of £200 million for the team.
In 2009, 200 million people bought Manchester City, how much money does Saudi billionaire Mansour now make?
£200 million is astronomical for most people, but for Mansour, who has a fortune of £50 billion, it's only a small target. In order to revive Manchester City, after taking over the team, Mansour began to frantically throw money and sell people. Especially after Mansour spent $45 million to buy Aguero in 2011, the team's money became a habit, and in the following years, Manchester City spent £560 million on the player market.
What can money do in exchange? With the addition of strong reinforcements, Manchester City began to revive, they became the only team to defend the Premier League title in the past decade, they won the league championship, the FA Cup, the League Cup, the community shield championship, becoming the only domestic "quadruple crown" in history.
The power of sufficient funds has allowed Mansour to deliver on his promise, and he has made Manchester City a Big Mac. Of course, the improvement of the team's performance has brought more attention, and has also made Mansour's Manchester City start to make money, and the team's market value has been increasing. According to the forbes list of club market capitalization, Manchester City's market capitalization today is 2.6 billion US dollars (about 1.88 billion pounds).
Of course, if Mansour wants to sell Manchester City, manchester city today must be more than this price, Jun did not see Manchester United side received a 4 billion offer, to be honest, if Mansour wants to sell the team, 2 billion pounds should not be a problem.
In 11 years, even if you don't count the team's profits in the past 11 years, in terms of market value, Mansour has earned nearly 1.8 billion pounds, but this brother should not sell the team, after all, 2 billion does not seem to be very important to him with a net worth of 50 billion.
