The Rumour Commode XXX: Return of the King

[mumbojumbo]

You'll also find a lot more buyers for a Toyota than a Porsche and trust me it's not because Toyota is a better brand. It could simply be low expenses/high revenue potential= big margin vs high expenses/high revenue potential=smaller margin. Newcastle isn't better than Milan, yet they had MBS/Saudi pursuing it.

Agreed. Newcastle costs much cheaper than AC Milan. That's why Arabs just buy smaller clubs. That strategy though needs a rethink. Man. City was bought around 2007. We are in 2020, they haven't won a CL. PSG was bought a few years later, same issue no CL. Unless they dont care about winning CL, they care more about other aspects.

If you want to buy a club and wins a CL, buying a club like AC Milan is the fastest route because we have the history, legends that we can bring in to guide the players and rich experiences

 

[mumbojumbo]

I also want to add. Man City has spent over 1 billions with nothing to show in CL. They still have issues with the backline.

 

[ZBoban]

But for how long. The moment cristiano leaves them it will be crickets for them unless they sign another star player.

Meanwhile Milan have been trash during the social media area and is still pulling these good numbers.

What makes you think Juventus will stop buying star players? Juve will always spend a lot and compete for trophies. Closing that gap is very difficult especially when you are trying to rebuild a tarnished brand. Milan are playing catch up and basically gave every other club a 10 year head start. There not a lot of Ronaldo's out there to buy that can a boost a club's social media like he did. It will be a long process but atm we are headed in the right direction. Performances on the field will be essential too.

 

[General]

I consider the second set of numbers more relevant anyway.

We agree to agree

 

[Casualista]

I Elliott wouldn't be here now if they hadn't calculated from the beginning that they could make money from the sale of Milan. They based this off of analysis into the financial state of the club, revenue potential, etc... Quick flip or long term investment isn't important as long as they can make a nice 1.5-4 times return on investment. :

And clearly their investment budget of 30 mil on this year's transfer market and maldinis hunt in the bargain bin reflects their thinking on Milan's revenue potential.

They will definitely make a money from the sale of Milan. They bought Milan for relative chump change from a conman who got caught in his own web.

But that in no way correlates to Milan being a big brand in football World anymore. It just means Elliott will make a profit.

There's a lot of IFs in your argument. Who says they won't sign another quality player after Christiano?

Having half the followers on Facebook and a 3rd on Instagram isn't really good numbers.

Why is everyone proverbially sucking off Maldini's cock over Hauge?

What about Massara? Moncada? The ones who likely had people watching him back in June, not Maldini. Give them credit as well.

Oh Danny Green wore AC Milan shirt, not Juve shirt.
Ok... ok..
Our brand is not popular... Danny Green probably bought the wrong shirt

 

[DeNiro]

Gianluca Di Marzio, who spoke to Sky Sport 24, confirmed that Jens Petter Hauge is very close to the Rossoneri: "Milan are one step away from Hauge, Massara's denial was diplomatic. The contacts continued today, they are very positive, already tonight or tomorrow an agreement could come. He won't leave him in Norway until December, but Milan want him immediately. "

Looks like uts happening, unless a dramatic twist of events, we got hauge

Time for some edjucation

Hauge is a common Norwegian surname, commonly associated with farms. The name Hauge derives from the old Norse word haugr meaning hill, knoll, or mound. Derivatives also include Haugan and Haugen.

Liverpool and inter were shit for years not too far off what Milan is right now. All it took for each was one or two years back in the champions league to cement their status among the elite. A lot depends on Milan qualifying for top 4(and importantly doing it back to back but baby steps) but the potential is still easily there.

That one summer when Mirabelli bought like 10 players and we beat Bayern badly in a friendly, Milan was all over social media. Plenty of casual fan accounts on twitter and Instagram posting random pics saying Milan is back and all this and that, actually got pretty annoying. But people still know Milan, and most want Milan to be a big side again. We can’t compete with epl but even Bayern knows they can’t do that. Milan can bounce back and be competitive financially with most bar epl and Clasico.

 

[Samaldinho]

You guys realize that the KPMG approach to club valuations heavily factor in revenues, right?

Like, heavily.

So, why would you use that as a metric? Is Elliott stupid then to have not sold Milan from the various offers they got? Or do they see it as an undervalued asset?

If you want to confidently state that you know more about finance than Elliott, please, be my guest. We all know how notorious they are for making bad financial decisions.

 

[Milan10]

No, they see it as a quick flip.

If it was a money making giant they would see it as a long term investment.

There's a huge difference.

Nothing points that way. Elliott didn't buy this club, they ended up with it due to unpaid loans.

And there has been zero credible reports on any sort of buyer.

Oh, is that why Elliott is currently working through a multi year process of building a new stadium? The stadium will probably be a $1B investment when all is said and done...

They recognized a undervalued asset that had been run into the ground by incapable caretakers, and they are currently in the process of turning said asset that they acquired for 400M or so Euros into a club that will be sold for billions with the way franchises across the world are now valued.

Samaldinho speaks of the past, yes, but Milan has already proven that it can be one of the biggest clubs in the world from a financial perspective. We likely can?t reach those heights with Serie A?s current state of affairs, but Milan will once again by a giant in the sport once we return to Europe.

Oh no is Maldini signing a farmer???

Daniele Longo @86_longo
#Milan on pole because he already has an agreement with the player: decisive hours

#Hauge wants the #Milan . Priority to the Rossoneri but strong competition from #Lipsia is #ManchesterUnited . As anticipated by @cmdotcom, tomorrow summit #Maldini - agents

I think FFP is what prevents Elliott from pumping money into Milan's transfer market, different subject.

What people need to consider is that Elliott bought Milan from a conman because they knew he was a conman when looking into him, and knew they could get a valuable asset for cheap. They didn't write those stipulations into a 100+ million dollar loan flipantly. Thats how these guys work, its like the mafia but legal.

 

[VultureSheva]

Hauge means Diaz is AM confirmed, and this means Paqueta out. Will any club buy Paqueta? I doubt, he will probably leave on loan with option to buy.

 

[papaberlu]

Signing a farmer will not help the fucking instagram followers go up goddamnit

 

[Sven]

Does Hauge really have interest from all that clubs or is that agent and club playing to get a better deal?

Nobody is buying clubs for billions of dollars any more. That's a fact.

.

Building a stadium is a sure fire way to increase the valuation of Milan and they will recover it in full when they go to sell it.

But why is it they are ready to spend so much on a stadium and not on players which will surely get Milan back into UCL ?

Because they don't see Milan's return to UCL as a major source of increase in Milan's future valuation like infrastructure.

Um, they lent money to a guy who couldn't pay it back.
