Qin Xiong, who had already gone on vacation, took time out to attend the FIFA World Player of the Year award ceremony.
The rankings were the same as the Ballon d 'Or awards.
However, Kaka had a bigger advantage over Qin Xiong this time. After all, the selection mechanism determined Kaka's performance in the Champions League. More judges directly voted for the MVP of the Champions League.
Qin Xiong himself did not take it to heart. After receiving the award, he went back to his vacation.
Bernabéu seemed to be singing and dancing during the winter break.
The fans could have a very happy Christmas and then look forward to what Real Madrid could achieve in the second half of the league tournament.
However, during this calm period, an "atomic bomb" was detonated in Madrid.
Mundo Deportivo published an article titled "Insider Reveals Real Madrid's High-level Corruption Scandal: The Bad Things They Did Are Too Many to Count!"
This report caused Real Madrid's president, Calderón, to have a crisis of confidence.
"Pepe, the grassroots defender who was once close to Ferdinand, Nesta, and Thuram, has now begun to prove that he is' worth the money 'on the field. However, this does not wash away the sin of the Real Madrid Club's possible black gold deal when they brought him in at a high price.
A few days ago, the Turkish agent, Beran Tutumlu, bravely came forward to expose the scandal, once again confirming people's suspicions about Real Madrid's president, Calderón, and sports manager, Mijatović.
Tutumlu is the agent of Comain and Laudrup. "I heard from insiders that this pair has pocketed money in many transfer deals. Many people complain that Real Madrid gives officials unusually high rebates for doing business with them. I don't have so much evidence, but I can say with certainty that Real Madrid's two deals to bring in Pepe and Diarra were shady. "
A year ago, the Turkish Trabzonspor club refused to offer a transfer fee of two million euros for Pepe. Just a month before Real Madrid intervened, another Turkish club, Galatasaray, also refused to offer six million euros for Pepe, but Real Madrid increased the price to 30 million euros to buy him.
The strange case of the buyer raising the price happened more than once with Real Madrid. For example, less than three months before Higuaín joined Real Madrid, he was recommended to Getafe for a price of three million euros. The Getafe manager at the time, Schuster, even refused to read his information.
Three months later, Real Madrid paid a total transfer fee of 13 million euros and intermediary fees for Higuaín.
The agent of a Real Madrid superstar said, "Calderón said that he has spent 100 million euros, but I want to know how much of that money is Mijatović and Calderón's pockets..
'It's this person called Mijatović. Even if he gives me a commission of 100 million Euros, I won't work with him anymore,' Tutumulu said angrily.
'He's the most money-loving person I've ever met. I've known him for a long time. We used to go to bars and nightclubs together. He provided me with countless women. When he was still a Real Madrid player, he begged me to take him to do business. He also wanted to introduce a Serbian player to Atlético Madrid and split the commission with me. But Atlético Madrid saw that he had evil intentions and rejected him... I can write 500 books about the bad things he did! '
'Calderón is not a good person either. He knows what kind of person Mijatović is, but he also received benefits, so naturally, he did not want to say more.'
Tutumlu said that after Calderón took office, the signing fees became more and more outrageous. The club's actual income was much lower than the publicity figure, but the club's administrative costs increased by 300%.
Calderón's younger brother, two daughters, and his eldest daughter's boyfriend all received expenses from Real Madrid. Every time Real Madrid went on a campaign, the lineup of more than 30 directors and their families was larger than the team. During the Florentino era, the chairman's children also accompanied the team to war, but all the travel expenses were paid by themselves. They never 'took advantage' of the club. "
After the report came out, Real Madrid's top management immediately stood on the cusp of public opinion.
It could be said that Calderón was not as "meddlesome" as Florentino when it came to managing the internal affairs of the team. He even formulated some abnormal construction policies.
He delegated power to the people around him and received good returns from the competition.
But Real Madrid's members and management directors were dissatisfied with him. Other than the promises in the competition that were difficult to fulfill, for example, he said that he wanted Kaka, but there was not even a shadow of Kaka in sight.
Other aspects that targeted Calderón were nothing more than other things, and had nothing to do with the pure competition affairs.
Calderón needed to come forward to put out the fire and repeatedly insisted that he was innocent, but the media would not let it go.
That was the beginning of Calderón being labeled as corrupt and followed him out of Real Madrid.
Real Madrid's members did not react too fiercely.
They paid the membership fee every year, and they regarded themselves as the owners of Real Madrid. They had a sense of ownership, but they did not expect to get monetary benefits from Real Madrid in return. They just hoped that Real Madrid in the arena could meet their standards and requirements for enjoying football.
Just like Florentino's era, the accounts were very transparent, and Florentino did things generously. But the team's performance on the field was a mess. How could the members tolerate it?
Now, it was just turning a blind eye. As long as it did not affect the team's results and the members could watch the games happily at the Bernabéu, money was secondary. Moreover, Real Madrid itself could make a lot of money, and that money did not belong to the members.
But at this time, Real Madrid's main defensive midfielder, Diarra, began to show signs of trouble.
His agent began to ask Real Madrid's top management for a high salary, hoping to make Diarra a player at the top of the locker room's income pyramid.
This caused Real Madrid's top management to be dissatisfied with the Malians!
Diarra should know that Makalele, who played a similar role as him, also left for the same reason, and the Malians' performance did not surpass his predecessor's!
He asked for a raise, and Mijatovic's answer was, "It's unreasonable!"
"Everyone wants a raise, but we can't meet everyone's request. If anyone is dissatisfied with the income, I think he can choose to leave."
Mijatovic's response was tantamount to telling the outside world that Diarra was no longer for sale!
Under such circumstances, Diarra, after careful consideration, combined with the team's current overall situation, and the brilliant achievements that could be achieved, he quickly changed his tune and declared his loyalty to Real Madrid!
