How Udinese beat the system and stands at the gates of La Liga
June 14th, 2011 By Eric Beard
At the end of the 2009-10 season, Granada CF and Barcelona B finished first
and second in the third tier of Spanish football, both gaining promotion to
Liga Adelante. This past season, Barcelona B finished 3rd and Granada
finished 5th.
Promotion into La Liga is almost identical to promotion into the Premier
League. That is, the best two sides in the league go directly into La Liga
while the next four battle it out in promotion playoffs. However, there’s
one caveat. Barcelona B could not compete for promotion into La Liga because
it is part of FC Barcelona and two sides from the same club cannot play in
the same league. Instead, 7th place Real Valladolid was able to take on 4th
place Elche CF in the playoff semifinals. Elche progressed into the
promotion final in dramatic fashion, as did Granada. One Spanish club from
Andalusia and one from the province of Alicante, it all seemed so
straightforward.
However, when Granada faced Celta Vigo this past Saturday in the playoff
semifinal, 6 out of the 11 starters were Udinese-owned. In fact, 11 players
on the Granada roster are “on loan” from the Italian club, including
starlets such as Dani Benitez (pictured above) and internationals such as
Ghana’s Jonathan Mensah. Simply, the majority of Granada’s squad is an
Udinese B filled with Spanish flair. Where the rules stopped this year’s
Barça B squad from progressing, Udinese used a different country to
push forward. And now, after the two matches in the playoff final on
Wednesday and Saturday, Udine could essentially have a team in both Serie A
and La Liga. An Italian job indeed.
The transformation was a novel one, but by no means are Granada’s fans
upset by the Italian presence; they are absolutely loving their rapid
resurgence in Spanish football. El Graná are back and the seats in Los Cá
rmenes are filled once again. So how did this happen exactly? Well, let’s
start with Udinese owner Gino Pozzo.
In 2009, Granada CF was a club in crisis, both competitively and financially
. The club was on the brink of disappearing, despite a rich 80 year history.
Gino Pozzo saw a money-making opportunity that would double as a way to
develop Udinese talent, and in July 2009, the two clubs signed a partnership
agreement so the majority of Granada’s squad would become Udinese-owned,
while the Italian club could also send over its reserves and youngsters.
So what are the benefits for Gino Pozzo and Udinese Calcio? Well, the
strategy is to use the exposure Granada gets in the Spanish league to
showcase Udinese-owned talent that will, in turn, gain value in the transfer
market. With Pozzo’s commitment to investing, Granada only seems likely to
improve in the future. And Pozzo’s “buy cheap, gain exposure, sell high”
philosophy is already working. Just imagine the possibilities for profit if
Granada gets into the top flight in Spain.
Will Granada’s success be sustainable? Yes, and legally so. Though Pozzo
said, “we put ourselves in Granada because it is a city with a great
football potential,” there is also a legal framework that ensures that
Udinese’s partnership with Granada is a permanent one. But amongst this
clever system, one thing remains clear: if Granada are promoted the boys by
the alhambra will not be the only one reaping the rewards.
But is this the start of a larger trend? Udinese’s plan is profitable and
it has revived Granada. As a result, both parties are happy. Real Madrid
have a notable connection with Getafe, but it’s not quite as imposing as
this. Should Barcelona abandon Barça B, take over local side Catalan
side Girona FC and make a run for La Liga? Should Arsenal impose its eye for
talented youth by rebuilding Nantes in Ligue 2? Is this the future of
relationships between the ‘haves and have-nots’ of football?
