Popular Post thejoker Posted February 21, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted February 21, 2023 Some interesting quotes from the Vitoria president. Says that Vitoria will sign young Egyptian, Senegalese and South American players with the view to them moving to Villa if they’re good enough. Says it will benefit Vitoria because they wouldn’t get these players otherwise, and it benefits Villa because we get first option on all of their players. 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post useless Posted February 21, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted February 21, 2023 Interesting quote "The largest training complex in Senegal is owned by V Sports. We are talking about young athletes, up to the age of 18, who are in Senegal being worked on so that they can then follow their professional project. In Egypt, it is exactly the same way and it will be the same in South America." Birmingham Mail 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

useless Posted February 21, 2023 Share Posted February 21, 2023 Senegal provides the most African players to Europe, or so I think I remember reading, V Sports own the biggest training complex in Senagal, not sure which one but we bought an academy in Senegal as well as having links to one in Egypt and from what Vitoria president says sounds like we're doing something similar in South American.

Worth noting they were tens of millions in debt. We've bailed them out so it's no surprise they've gone for it, but it meant we kind of had them by the balls.

The Fun Factory Posted March 6, 2023 Share Posted March 6, 2023 Surely it's a win-win for them. Financial security and options to make money on player recruitment. There must be a huge gap in spending power between the big 3 and the rest of the Portuguese league. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve done it my teens on Football Manager and I think it works that we buy a player for a £1 but if we sell them another player it’s £1 billion. That’s how I used to play when I had Villa as my main team plus multiple teams to get their players. Think it works the same in real life… 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
