High spending vs ridiculous revenue

For weeks the club Paris St. Germain in the critique stands. Excessive spending, violations of the financial fair play rules are basic. Owner of Nasser al Khelaifi not interested that, Messi and Ronaldo he has promptly put on his shopping list.

What would the Primera Division actually without Messi and Ronaldo? Would be the el Classicó yet of equal importance, Real Madrid still Royal and Barcelona the measure of all things? Almost exciting but is the question what if Messi and Ronaldo would play in the same team? Could they suddenly become enemy players, they could shine with each other? These questions could soon have a real relevance, but owners of Paris St. Germain, Nasser al-Khelaifi, announced to buy both players in the near future. "Are the two best players in the world, it would be great to have you on the team", as the Qatari. That Ronaldo has a buyout clause with a transfer fee of EUR 1 billion, seems little to impress him. Also not that Messi is in similar dimensions. "We are talking about a five-year project, but we can do that", is al-Khelaifi confident.

However, this ambitious plan seems like a mathematical miracle to be in times of financial boil. It may be emitted only what is actually captured. The wealthy patron are slowly not more quite in vogue - according to the rules of rising you'd think anyway. Finally, there are the first clubs in Europe in the pillory. This rules but we know are there to be broken. This has also Nasser al-Khelaifis Qatar Sports investment (QSI) thought. It is just her Club, Paris St. Germain, since the purchases of Zlatan Ibrahimovics & co in the criticism. "Platini has said, we have to be inventive. We are that."


High spending vs ridiculous revenue

The Qatari has stepped this summer 140 million euros to buy. He got a proud force of big names there together. Title, Championship, Champions League, to come with them. Dealing with success, nothing else. However ridiculous amounts of taking money face to the immense amounts of purchases. Paris St. Germain has made 100 million euros of debt last year, with revenue from tickets and jerseys they can are not repaid. And then, yes even the proud Ibrahimovics salary of 14 million will be paid net.

Got Bayern boss Karl Heinz Rummenigge excited itself recently loudly, that UEFA President Michel Platini but quickly must put a stop the. Platini would lose his credibility if he would not continue at Paris St Germain with its new rules. "When I see the content of Ibrahimovic will bad me" continues a Rummenigge on the totally overpriced salaries of the players. Ibrahimovic counters calmly: "Quality is there just not free." In the sport Bild interview scolds Nasser al Khelaifi back now: "If Mr Rummenigge is bad, he can then go to the doctor? People need to understand that this is not about us money, but to our project. "And we need stars like Ibrahimovic." Rummenigge is keifen probably in the future, organizations such as the PSG have discovered a hole in the system. May it be, spent only what was also taken? All of a sudden rages the rumor mill, the Qatar National Bank has PSG a sponsorship deal offered for EUR 100 million a year, over a period of four years. The Club in four years would 400 million take, 400 million are likely to be invested in new players, a small down payment for Ronaldo and Messi. And just to be on the jerseys of players. By comparison, the Qatar Foundation pays 30 million 25 million for Real Madrid annually for the spectacular contract with Barcelona, bwin. The same method applied Etihad recently. The airline should have paid Manchester City for the naming of the stadium, as well as honours 400 million euros, the Club is considered a pioneer of the elite sponsorship. Bayern Munich gets along as Jersey sponsor 30 million per season from the naming rights of the Allianz Arena and Telekom.


Quality just not for nothing is there."

Michel Platini would now extend the rules of financial boil: limits for transfer fees, salaries and sponsor contracts. The bare fact that only a few clubs in Europe can afford the best players, has little to do with fair and equal competition. It is unlikely that he does this. The reasons are simple: the Frenchman Michel Platini has an interest in 2016 to Polish up the ailing French League prior to the European Championships in France. Now you look back after France, PSG has a realistic chance to survive the group stage group in this year's Champions League. Platini would not risk damaging France showpiece. Time apart from the fact that Platini is the father since the election to Qatar 22 for the QSI as Europe Chief, Platini 2022 is regarded as a supporter of the World Cup in Qatar. And then even the dubious plans of the Parisian suburbs in the area. Qatar is to redevelop the metropolis of brittle, with 100 million euros. Modern football is politics, one hand washes the other.

But it is not only the Emirate of Qatar with its investors, which Platini plans for fair competition in the way. There are just the big clubs Europe itself, which would make it a thick line through his account, believed he would do against them. Finally, the concept of today's Champions League mainly from the posturing of the rich and powerful is based. The pressure of the large national associations of Europe, the Champions League had changed. Once, it was the European of Cup, today the strong national interests can send up to four clubs in the Champions League. The small associations can send only a participant in the race. You are rarely survive the qualifiers. Platini's plan to send all Cup, the Champions League has failed up to now and will not be implemented in the future. It comes when the Champions League simply to too much money, money for television rights and sponsorship. And it is broadcasters only to the "big" clubs, to the stars, because you want to see the audience. In the event of an emergency the powerful clubs would just threaten to boycott the Champions League and set up their own League. The League of the stars and starlets. Qatari television station al-Jazeera pulls out the checkbook with security immediately, there finally Nasser al Kheleifi sitting on the Executive Chair.
