Russian Investment? (1 Viewer)

I want to give you guys an example of why I would like nothing more than to see the team purchased.
In 2007 the team unveiled their new jerseys and revealed that for the first time the sponsor would be an in-house company.
Why do I care? Simple. I seriously doubt that Juventus saw a single Euro from this year’s sponsorship. It wouldn’t make sense. FIAT would simply be taking money out of their right pocket and placing it in their left one with no real gain.
Why do such a thing? Simple. Everyone knows that a team must show a certain amount of revenue in order to register for Serie A (which is why Inter and Milan created their fancy accounting tricks) while it is also known that a normal company will reduce its taxable income by showing expenses.
By making this paper transaction (where the funds if ever transferred were likely channeled back to New Holland) FIAT hit two birds with one stone. They showed a financial gain for Juventus (which they would have shown regardless) allowing them to remain above the limit and then showed a fictitious (likely) expense in the New Holland books which lowered their taxable liability.
Had they sought out an external sponsor Juventus could have had the gain and taxable liability just the same but New Holland would not have had the expense to show in their books meaning they would have lost out at the end of the year.
End result: Juve don’t actually get a Euro and go into the player market in a VERY cheap manner allowing players like Milito to slip away in place of say Andrade.
Anyone else want to detach from FIAT?
Juventus is no more than a pawn in the FIAT empire and I'm sick of it.

Personally , I don't care who buys us as long as that person or company is benefiting Juve . I also couldn't care less whether the Elkanns or Fiat lose their shares . What difference would it make anyway ? It's not like the Elkanns know what they're doing and are offering very little when it comes to new ideas , and when you come to think of it ; they aren't even offering too much financially either so what are they doing really ?
I wouldn't mind complete control . Let's be realistic here , we all know football has become more or less a buisness , you need shit loads of money to succeed in it . The facts are there for all of us to see . Look at the 4 teams that are in the semi final , how many of them aren't filthy rich ? Whether we like it or not , success and wealth are directly related , even when it comes to football .
Chelsea were a midtable club when Abramovich bought them , look where they are now . Second in England and in the semi final of the C.L and they have this Russian Billionaire to thank .
Juve , a team right out of serie B , that has received a huge financial blow after the calciopoli and is just short of a few signings that could take them back to the top . The only thing that's stopping that from happening is money , or lack of it . If this Russian company is willing assist Juve back to the top by injecting some cash or even by buying Juve then I'm all for it .
A few years ago the Italian league was by far the strongest and amost competitive league in the world ? What happened ? Why is th English league the strongest league in the world now ? Is it because they believed in pride and honour ? No , it is because the English teams faced reality and realized that the only way they would make it back to the top was by "selling their souls" and fuck did it pay off .

well i guess we will have to wait and see with regards to this but new money would be nice to have when it comes to our transfer targets being missed. I would not think this company wants to build a dream team like abramovich cuz that is like his personal fantasy.
But it would be a shame for the biggest club in Italy to be bought up by foreign investors, with all respect to the Russians of course.
I also am curious why these Russian companies do not choose to Invest heavily in Russian football?
