一 | SYDNEY, Australia -- Soccer officials in Australia and Indonesia have floated the idea of teaming up in a bid to rival Saudi Arabia for the hosting rights to the men’s World Cup in 2034.The Sydney Morning Herald reported comments Wednesday from Indonesia soccer federation president Erick Thohir about ongoing talks that could also include Malaysia and Singapore in a possible bid.Indonesia is being linked with a bid despite having the men’s Under-20 World Cup taken away by FIFA this year amid political turmoil because the Muslim-majority nation did not want to stage games involving Israel.Argentina ended up hosting the under-20 tournament at short notice.FIFA could have disciplined the Indonesian federation for breaching hosting duties but instead rewarded the country weeks later by naming it as host of the men’s Under-17 World Cup. Israel did not qualify for the under-17 edition, which starts next month.Thohir is an Indonesian government minister who has ties to FIFA president Gianni Infantino. Both are members of the International Olympic Committee and Thohir is a former president of Inter Milan, the Italian soccer club whose fans include Infantino.Any opponent to Saudi Arabia in the 2034 World Cup contest has to express official interest by Oct. 31. FIFA set a deadline of Nov. 30 to file a formal bidding agreement.Only members of the Asia and Oceania soccer bodies can apply to host the 2034 World Cup because the United States, Canada and Mexico will host the 2026 edition and six FIFA members from Europe, Africa and South America have joined for the 2030 tournament.Within hours of FIFA opening the 2034 contest a week ago, the Saudi Arabian soccer federation pledged to bid and Asian Football Confederation president Sheikh Salman bin Ebrahim Al Khalifa said there was united support for it. Four AFC members now appear to be in talks to contradict that statement.The Australian soccer federation, which successfully co-hosted the Women’s World Cup this year, said last week it is “exploring the possibility of bidding for the 2029 FIFA Club World Cup and/or the FIFA World Cup 2034.”The 32-team club event in 2029 is expected to be played in June-July, a time of year unsuited to the extreme summer heat in Saudi Arabia.FIFA has said it will decide which months to play the 2034 World Cup after its members confirm the host at a meeting likely to be held late next year.___AP soccer: https://apnews.com/hub/soccer。 北京时间8月26日,詹姆斯一笔重磅操作曝光,据彭博社报道,2018年加盟湖人前,詹姆斯抵押未来几十年的场外收入,贷款3亿美元用于其他商业或者投资。 职业生涯至今,詹姆斯的NBA总薪资已经达到5.89亿美元,再加上各种场外收入,他早已成为亿万富翁,即使如此,詹姆斯仍抵押未来融资3亿美元,从而达到提前变现的目的。 据彭博社报道,在2018年加盟湖人队的几个月前,詹姆斯控制的一家有限责任公司(King James Funding LLC)从两家人寿保险公司融资了近3亿美元,这两家保险公司的部分资金当时由古根海姆合伙公司负责投资管理。古根海姆合伙公司的领导则是湖人前老板马克·沃尔特。 当时,詹姆斯的公司以詹姆斯本人未来的场外收入作为支撑发行债券,包括他与Nike签订的终身合同等,两家保险公司花费了近3亿美元购买了这些债券,这些债券将于2049年到期。 文章指出,詹姆斯并不是因为缺钱才借了3亿美元,而是把未来几十年的商业收入提前证券化变现,这样他可以将其用于其他商业或者投资方面。 值得一提的是,詹姆斯的这笔贷款在沃尔特收购湖人前就已启动,与沃尔特被调查事件无关。 对此,美记者Darren Rcvell表示,这是勒布朗和他的团队的一个绝对天才之举;他从耐克那里获得了一份巨额终身合同,虽然它是保证的,但不会立即兑现;所以他提前拿到了钱,而且这笔钱可能早就投资了,聪明。 在NBA的赛场上,詹姆斯是外界公认的常青树,至今仍是联盟的摇钱树;在场外,詹姆斯已经投资了多个领域,而且大多数投资都赚翻了。
