>Pissi buys a football club>100% control>Will probably get promoted to La liga soonWhile its cool Riggi has his own club. Whats the point of buying sports clubs I'm genuinely curious. You barely ever make a profit when buying these isn't the whole point of entrepreneurship is to make a profit
something to do with tax evasion no doubt
>>154242901i get why it's not an argie club since they are all actual clubs instead of SADs herebut why UE cornella?
>>154242901He's filthy rich. With the amount of money he has, he might as well burn some of it for fun.
>>154242901It's for his kids to play in
>>154242901Now he can play until he's 50 and score more goals in Europe when he gets bored with MLS.
the rich just want to play fm but for real
>>154243053Is the Spanish Third Division more or less competitive than MLS and the Saudi league?
>>154242908This and also>>154243053
>>154242908>tax evasionIt's just a hobby to sink time into because he's so filthy rich he has a whole team of people he pays so they can tell him what he should do with all his money.
>>154242901>Whats the point of buying sports clubsMoney laundering
>>154242901>Welcome to Cornella streaming exclusively through Peacock and Telemundo
>>154242901>You barely ever make a profitYou are looking at yearly profitsNow look at what he paid for it and how much he sells it for in 10 years and compare that to a long term stock index
That seems odd to me. I thought for sure he would be a player only and retire, he's too autistic for management type shit, I mean this is just ownership but still. I guess he wants to stay involved.
>>154243679Messi is... not very bright. I know, most soccer players aren't really Oxbridge-bound types, but Messi is... slow, rather unintelligent. All his investments and net worth besides everyday expenses are 100% managed by another person.
cornellà are in third division yes, but that's the name of our fifth division
>>154242901If I were the owner of a third-division team in Europe, I’d definitely take them all the way to the top division.
>>154242901Kek they used the same camera trick they use in pr0n to make his hands look bigger.
>>154243679he prolly is playing footy manager games and wants to try irl now
well done to messi for getting a football club
>>154243679>too autistic>for management type shit"management type shit" is literally the bread and butter for autists though
>>154242910He probably wouldn't get 100% ownership of some club in a higher division
>>154245156Everyone who thinks this way and gets into some form of management always remarks that they were surprised by how much of the job was having to handle tantrums and interpersonal issues with the people working for them versus how much time they expected they'd get to spend on autistic logistics management.Realistically speaking, though, he's going to have a team of people who handle it all for him. He's just the moneyman.
RCD Asspanyol sissies, not like this...
Espanyol bros we're in the dodlums now
>>154242910>why UE cornella?the team is in barcelona, has a very solid youth system and looks easy to promote
>>154242901
>>154242910He has a club here
>>154242910the etymology of the place name reminds him of his connection to antonella
>>154243301He already has a club here in the third division with Suarez>Deportivo LSMIt's 100% a tax evasion here. Diego Forlan has another club, Fernando Muslera too. All in the third division. You reduce the taxes you've got to pay if instead of having the money you're investing it somewhere else or somethin like that idk I'm not an economics man
>>154248539>investing in sportsballThey lose money.This is part of the big money to start with. You spend it back in.It's a club. You get plenty and everyone gets plenty.
>>154242910Jordi Alba was formed there so he probably suggested it
For Messi I don't know. Maybe he wants to have reasons to keep interacting with former football players who also do this sort of thing.For non-elite players the reason could be that you get prestigeSome people rather have 5 million than 20 million if it means they are a known celebrity in their city
>>154246863>>154251781alright THESE make senseand yeah i looked it up and the club has a surprisingly good youth academy record for how "small" it isnot a bad move
>>154251781How is babby formed
This is probably just a payoff for his tax evasion
>>154243053wow thats crazy
Cornellà is a fucking shithole I can’t imagine Messi will set foot there, he will manage everything remotely from Miami or Castelldefels
>>154243679His fucking dad is the one doing everything.
>he didnt buy eibarcringe
A lot of former players are buying up clubs, don't think it's a good investment desuSaying that, a lot of footballers buy restaurants which REALLY isn't a good investment with how often they go bust
>>154242901>Will probably get promoted to La liga soonWhat are you basing this bizarre assumption on?
>>154243679Mr Messi, what are your plans for Cornella this year?>Buena gracias a mi familia mi mama mi papa
>>154254244Retardation, obviously. Either that or imitating Gerard Pique's FC Andorra project.
>>154254207football clubs are a horrible investment unless you buy a club 4-5 divisions down, promote it to top level and sell it
>>154242901>Irish>writes like English is his third languagewtf
This probably some elaborate scheme to get back to Barcelona for a last dance.
>>154243679He'll just assign a CEO to the club and be done with it.It's probably just some tax evasion thing like most anon's have stated already.
>>154254207More soccer players should get into the stock market.
>>154254207They are a good investment if you are them because of the association instantly gives value to it. You can bring it some talent that otherwise wouldnt have joined the team, etc. so I think in a lot of cases it can be a good investment just because its the sort of thing where their name alone brings value to it.For an average businessman or investor it would definitely make no sense
>>154242901>UE CORNETAGOATnaldo would never.
>>154242901You haven’t considered that there may be other motivations besides base greed, really?
>>154242901He's becoming Pessi
