3. Exploring the mystery of the distribution of the $80 million fund
In the complicated financial arrangements, the salaries and bonuses of the players and coaches undoubtedly occupy half of the total. The rest of the money has to be split between the rental of training venues, security costs, transportation on the day of the tournament, club staff salaries, youth training programs, and other expenses. The budgetary constraints are sometimes lamented.
4. The stormy waters of shareholding reforms
In the face of share reform and capital injection, the Manatee Football Club has shown an unprecedented open stance. Mr. Qiao said that even if you only want to partially transfer the shares, it is still feasible. However, I'm afraid it is still a question worth pondering as to how many people really love soccer and are willing to devote themselves to it.
Zhang Dong's words revealed that several clubs backed by state-owned enterprises, seemingly prudent in handling the resources given by the people of the country, but in fact, the sale of their own "fields" does not hurt. He also pointed out that even after several salary restrictions, the salaries of Chinese Super League players remain high, becoming a major burden on clubs' operations. In view of this, further compression of Chinese players' salaries seems to have become a top priority.
Netizens are constantly discussing and expressing their views:
Netizen 1: Limit salary! The maximum annual salary of a player in the Chinese Super League is 1 million, in the Chinese First League 600,000, and in the Chinese Second League 400,000, and it must not go up any further. Want to make money? Then go abroad with strength.
Netizen 2: Those "sea cucumber" players with high salaries have neither level nor spirit.
Netizen 3: At the end of the day, those clubs with state-owned enterprise backgrounds are just burning taxpayers' money.
Netizen 4: Dissolve the Chinese Football Association! Cancel Chinese men's soccer!
Netizen 5: Since then, Guangzhou Evergrande has stopped paying attention to the Chinese league, which is full of players who are harboring a lot of problems.
