[ASSE] Naujienos
Cardona dublis. Geriausias vasario ir kovo mėn Ligue 2 žaidėjas. Vasario mėn 3 pergalės, 3 įvarčiai, 1 rez. perdavimas. Kovo mėn 3 pergalės, lygiosios ir 3 įvarčiai. Labai daug gyvybės įpūtė į puolimą savo judėjimu. Būtų optimalu išpirkt kontraktą.
Atėjo toji diena. Oficialus klubo pranešimas, kad ASSE bus parduotas. Pirkėjas - kanadiečių verslininkas Larry Tannenbaum ir Kilmer Sports Ventures, kurios prezidentu paskirtas puikiai pažįstamas futbolo funkcionierius, Ivan Gazidis. Tanenbaum net worth apie $2.5B, o turtus jis susikrovė investijomis į pramonę, NT, infrastruktūrą bei sportą. Per savo Kilmer Group, Tanenbaum kontroliuoja 25% Maple Leaf Sports and Enternainment, o tai yra:
Kalbama, kad sumokės €20-25m ir +€5m, jei klubas pakyla į Ligue 1. Kol kas sunku įsivaizduoti, kokia bus strategija, bet pliusas, kad ateina kompetetingi žmonės, su patirtimi, finansais ir ne iš rytų. Dar pliusas, kad netampame kažkoks feeder klubas, kaip nutiko su Strasbourg, Troyes, Lorient (bent jau kol kas). Caaizzo klube neliks išvis, o Romeyer išlaikys vadovaujančią poziciją savo sukurtame ASSE Cœur-Vert socialiniame projekte bei savo vietas Geoffroy-Guichard. Kol kas nėra iki galo aišku, kas dar be Gazidis dalyvaus klubo valdyme, bet tiek dabartinis CEO JL Soucasse, tiek sporto direktorius Loic Perrin, bent jau trumpuoju laikotarpiu, pozicijas išlaikys.
Nauja era. Senokai laikas. Lauksim daugiau žinių ar apie strategiją.
Tai know-how sporte turi pakankamai ilgą. Buvo vienas pagrindinių žmonių išpushinęs NBA frančizę Toronte, o dabar mačiau, kad pramušė ir WNBA komandą nuo 2026m. Gazidis prie Kilmer grupės prisijungė pakankamai šviežiai - šiemet. Tapo prezidentu Kilmer Sports Ventures, kurie ir taps ASSE akcininkais. Su Tanenbaum pažįstami gerus 20 metų, nes Gazidis veikla futbole visų pirma prasidėjo nuo MLS, kurios commissioner jis tapo 2001. 2009 perėjo į Arsenal chief executive pareigas, tai čia jau Londono ekipos fanai geriau papasakot galėtų, kaip sekės. 2018 perėmė merdėjantį Milaną ir vėl grąžino juos į viršunę. Davė sporto direktoriaus darbą Maldini. 2020/2021 antra vieta ir sugrįžimas į ČL pirmą sykį nuo 2012/13, o sekantį sezoną ir pirmas Serie A titulas per 11 sezonų. Mačiau išlydėtas San Siro 2022m. gale buvo labai gražiai.Maple Leaf Sports & Entertainment Ltd. (MLSE) is a professional sports and commercial real estate company based in Toronto, Ontario, Canada.
