Marcel Brands this summer more than 100 million euros to get the transfer market by storm with his new club Everton. If it is necessary, the club still over that amount.
Owner Farhad Moshiri, who previously won as a trainer Ronald Koeman, connecting with the topzes at all costs want to of the English Premier League. "In my conversations with Marcel," said Moshiri, "is clear to me that he shares our vision that we need to open the attack on the top teams in the Premier League. He's going to make us better and make sure we get better equipment to do that. "
Doubling salary
Brands goes itself in its new role as
director of football also to a higher category. At Everton he is going to earn some two million per year, more than doubling his PSV-salary. The fired Steve Walsh yesterday, already in the role of director of football, earned 1.2 million euros.
The Dutchman realizes well that he with a much better filled wallet players can go buy. "The amounts by which in England and also at Everton, are totally different than in Netherlands. The market forces that we here know is there as well, but with much larger amounts. " It does not mean that his work easier. "The larger the amount, the greater the responsibility are going to feel that connected. Sometimes it seems as if big money a bit lazy, but I don't think I'm lazy. "
Stadium
At Everton are working hard on the plans for a new stadium that is to be built along the river Mersey. Everton would particularly like to compete with city enjoyed Liverpool, that under Jürgen Klopp has made great strides but still does not have a title can conquer.
Moshiri has already stopped a lot of money in the club, but is prepared to invest further. In doing so, he would be heavily supported by the Russian billionaire Usmanov Tam, which is blocked in his attempts to take over Arsenal and now of his Arsenal shares off will.
MINO
Moshiri and Usmanov also want to do business with Mino Raiola, because that Everton can help to big names. And Raiola has for many years with Brands. It is also no coincidence that Raiola has played a major role in the appointment of the former Pro at Everton.
Brands: "first contact is via Mino, but not for the rest. MINO is a good friend of mine. That he's been since my RKC-time. " The first acquisition is not a player, but a trainer. After the dismissal of Sam Allardyce, the club quickly need a coach.
