20 10 June, Paris Saint-Germain and others, who have been trapped in financial problems, came to his rescue. Qatar Sports Investment Fund invested 5000W to buy 70% equity of the club. Paris Saint-Germain also ushered in major reforms. From then on, the world football will also usher in a great change-the era of Jinyuan football is coming.
At this point, after the Qatar consortium became the largest shareholder of the club, Qataris began to recruit. 20 1 1 In the summer, Paris Saint-Germain spent 9 1.5 million euros, and successively bought 8 players including pastore, Mene, Matuidi and Sirigu.
In the winter of the same year, he signed a contract with Milan meritorious coach Carlo Ancelotti for two years, and at the same time set a record for the highest annual salary of the head coach in Ligue 1.
The following year, Paris Saint-Germain announced that Swedish star Ibrahimovic had officially joined the team. The annual salary exceeds C Ronaldo, becoming the second in the world (second only to Eto 'o), and after tax it reaches 6,543,800 euros. Subsequently, Thiago Silva, Lavich and Villacht arrived one after another. After two years of preparation, the Paris aircraft carrier officially set sail.
After 6300W signed Di Maria, he successively signed Brazilian core Neymar and French golden boy Mbappé with 220 million liquidated damages and 65.438+0.8 billion transfer fee. World football has officially entered the 200 million era.
In the summer of 20021,the club signed Dutch captain Vijay Nardoux, Real Madrid captain Ramos, Barcelona captain Messi and European champion MVP Donaruma for free, and bought the world's No.1 right-back Ashraf for 6000 W.
In the 10 year since the Qatar consortium entered Bali, the incomplete statistics of the pure transfer fee expenditure has exceeded 10 billion, which does not include the huge annual salary of players. So, what is the boss of Greater Paris burning money for? Is the oil tycoon tired of boring life and comes to play FM to relieve boredom? This is by no means the case.
Paris is the commercial, economic, cultural and political center of France. One of the five international metropolises in the world. Such a world center city, its football club is not strong. Paris Saint-Germain has been troubled by the team's financial problems for many years and has to sell its star players to support itself. Even so, it has been crushed by the strength of French giants such as Lyon and Marseille all the year round.
Qatar Sports Investment Company was established by Qatar Government in 2005, and it belongs to Qatar Investment Bureau. It is a sovereign fund with a capital of over US$ 654.38 billion. Is a sovereign wealth foundation organized by the government, specializing in domestic and foreign investment.
Qatar government's established strategy is to minimize the risk of Qatar's economy's excessive dependence on energy prices. The fund mainly invests in the international market and places outside Qatar's domestic energy sector. Although the Qatar Investment Authority claims to be an investment fund managed by professionals, most of its decisions are made by its president Tamim Al Thani. Al Thani is the fourth son of Emir Hamad, the president of Qatar National Olympic Committee and a member of the International Olympic Committee.
It is not difficult to see that Qataris hope to find another way in industries other than energy and join the international community. Paris is a perfect stage. Football is the biggest sport in the world. Billions of fans around the world have brought commercial value, and the brand promotion that can be achieved is unmatched by investing in other industries. At this point, the Qataris entered Paris Saint-Germain, and it came naturally.
"Their ambition is as big as their appetite." Neil Ives, a British football investment expert, analyzed that Qatar hopes to control 20% of the international sports market through state capital acquisition. 20 10 Qatar won the right to host the 2022 world cup. Qatar wants to change and change the dilemma that the country can only rely on oil and gas. The mission of Paris is to spend money, spend money, spend money. Help Qatar win its image.
The question that FIFA was bought by Qatar for internal corruption continues to this day. FIFA and Qatar are inextricably linked. Although Blatter, the former president of FIFA, who was seriously suspected of having improper economic ties with Qatar, has been dismissed, this has not stopped the close relationship between FIFA and Qatar-Qatar Airways has become the top sponsor of FIFA.
Airlines from the Middle East sponsored more than 20 well-known European clubs. As the number one figure in Qatar sports, Al Thani chose Paris Saint-Germain, and his main task is clear: to build momentum for Qatar 2022 in the 2022 FIFA World Cup.
The World Cup is an important event to let the world know about Qatar. However, it's not just that.
Qataris want to stick their country around the world like a trademark.

Qatar Airways increased its stake in British Aircraft Carrier Company to 20%.
Numerous industries and assets from Russia, the United States, Asia, Japan and China are becoming potential investment or purchase targets for Qataris.
Think back to the players bought by Paris Saint-Germain. They are basically national team captains, or the most appealing players in their own countries, or intercontinental and world-class players. Of course. The transfer fee and annual salary of these players are actually only nine Niu Yi hairs of the Qatari Empire.
Which club's financial resources can be compared with that of a Middle Eastern oil country? Even the Barcelona jerseys are not advertised. This 1 10-year tradition was broken by local tyrants using dollars. Football is under the knee of the dollar, so nothing can't be broken.
