In the end, River Plate beat the visiting Gremio 4-1 at home, a score that would have almost guaranteed them a place in this season's Copa Libertadores final. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

Although Gremio coach Marcelo Rospid did not admit in his regular post-match press conference that the second leg was meaningless, everyone knows that this is nothing more than Marcelo Rospide's self-deception, and in the past 49 years of the Copa Libertadores, no team has ever qualified for the first leg of the semi-finals by a net of three goals.

Moreover, River Plate's strength is unprecedentedly strong, except for the goalkeeper's ability is slightly insufficient, the strength of the three lines is very strong, especially the midfielder and forward line, which are completely at the international level.

It was only a matter of time before they won at home and qualified for the final, and the media who had been making things difficult for Simeone and Tang Zheng in the past kept their mouths shut, because River Plate had what it took to win the Copa Libertadores with a three-goal win over Gremio in the first leg of the semi-finals.

Coupled with the fact that the league has already been won, River Plate is very likely to win the double this season.

If you still contradict Simeone and Tang Zheng at this time, then pure fragmentation is looking for abuse and brain-dead behavior.

Obviously, it is impossible for a journalist who can eat this line of food to have a low IQ.

Except for "Ole Daily", which is ready to fight Simeone and Tang Zheng to the end, other media have adjusted their sides and instead praised River Plate's amazing achievements this season.

When the whistle sounded at the end of the game, the on-site director locked the camera on Tang Zheng again.

In this game, Tang Zheng, who contributed one goal, two assists and one offensive planner, is the best player deservedly!

Even Bueno, a well-known football commentator from Brazil's Globo TV, praised Tang Zheng after the game: "I'm sorry...... In the past, I had a prejudice against Don, but now I have to change my attitude, he is great! I believe that the South American stage is no longer enough for him to continue to play, he needs a broader stage to express himself and prove himself! Coming from the football desert, he has all the potential to become a superstar......"

Meanwhile, on the European continent, Real Madrid's official website announced that they had reached an agreement with Lyon, with Benzema joining Real Madrid for 35 million euros.

Florentino, who is back in charge of Real Madrid, is brandishing the money in his hand to carry out an arms race, and after buying Kaka and Benzema one after another, many European media are speculating which young talent will be the next to be favored by Real Madrid?

As last year's European Ballon d'Or winner, Portuguese Cristiano Ronaldo naturally became the focus of the media's suspicions, but neither Real Madrid nor Manchester United responded positively, but instead increased the media's desire to learn and explore.

So Rodrigo, who came to Germany, did not attract anyone's attention, and his first stop in Germany was not Munich, but Dortmund.

Dortmund's thirsty sporting director Zorce was very hospitable to Rodrygo, but dropped the chain at a critical time because Dortmund couldn't afford that much transfer fee.

Or they will not spend nearly 11 million euros to buy a Tang Zheng who does not have the advantage of the account book, their transfer budget this summer is not much, it cost 8.7 million euros to buy Hummels and Barrios, and it is already very sincere to be willing to pay 9 million euros, and this is still based on Tang Zheng's recent outstanding performance in the Copa Libertadores.

The price was not negotiated, so Rodrigo naturally had to travel to Munich, but before he boarded a flight to Munich, he received a call from Haulte, the sporting director of Dortmund's arch-rival Schalke 04.

Borussia Dortmund and Schalke 04 are both in North Rhine-Westphalia, and they are only 40 kilometres away from each other.

So Rodrigo had to change his ticket and go to the Schalke area of Gelsenkirchen, where Schalke 04 is located.

Schalke 04 is as sincere as Dortmund, and the transfer fee even exceeds Dortmund's 500,000 euros, but the release clause that touches Tang Zheng is still nearly 1 million euros.

In fact, even if Schalke 04 can come up with a transfer fee that touches the termination fee, Rodrygo will not let Tang Zheng give priority to this Bundesliga powerhouse.

Tang Zheng's River Plate is the top in the Bundesliga, if you log in the Bundesliga, why do you have to choose Bayern and Dortmund, right?

And the current Bayern Munich is being renewed, Van Bommel and Ze Roberto, who occupy the starting midfield, are old and no longer suitable to be the main team, which is why Bayern Munich is willing to pay nearly 10 million euros to buy a 19-year-old player with no national team experience.

The same price was not negotiated, and Rodrygo had no choice but to fly to Munich non-stop to meet Bayern sporting director Summer.

As soon as Rodrigo left on the front foot, Schalke 04 sporting director Helt called Magath, who became head coach at the end of last month: "Felix, I just met with Don's agent, Fibino Rodrigo, and I think this deal is very difficult to achieve. ”

"How?"

'I probed him and it was very difficult for this transfer to work, apart from the fact that it was very difficult for us to accept. ”

Seeing that Magath didn't reply, Helt hesitated, but said honestly: "River Plate's asking price is more than 10 million euros, and Fibino's tone is that he will not give priority to us." ”

"Oh?" Magat, who was on vacation, had a cigar in his mouth, and thought of Rakitic, who had been messing with transfers, and said, "It's okay, continue to negotiate with Don's agent, and I'll find time to talk to Joseph." ”

Hailt, who hung up the phone, shook his head, he had just become the sporting director of Schalke 04 this year, and he was about to make some contributions when he encountered this kind of thing, depressed.

If the price was 10 million euros at the beginning of the year, he would definitely be a hit, but with Tang Zheng's excellent performance in the Copa Libertadores, he has become a much-needed player for the new head coach Magath, and Tang Zheng has a huge Chinese market behind him......

Bayern Munich had just bought striker Gomes from Stuttgart this summer, and sporting director Summerer was in a good mood when he received a call from an Argentine named Fibino Rodrygo.

He hadn't reacted when he first received the call, but he soon remembered that this Argentine was Tang Zheng's royal agent.

To avoid the pervasive media, the two meet at a café near Sebena Street.

Listening to elegant piano music and sipping excellent coffee, Rodrigo was the first to break the silence: "I believe you already know very well what I am here for?"

Summer, who was in his early forties, had meticulous and refined blonde hair, and he crossed his legs and nodded.

As sporting director, he is responsible for player transfers, and according to chief scout Wolfgang De Miller, Tang Zheng's growth is worth looking forward to, and he is now the heart of River Plate's midfield, and was the biggest contributor to River Plate's big win over Gremio in the first leg of the Copa Libertadores semi-final.

If it doesn't exceed 12 million euros, it's a good deal.

Anyway, the team's personnel reserves in the midfield position are insufficient, Van Bommel and Ze Roberto are old, and Tymoshchuk, known as the first midfielder in Eastern Europe, is asking for 15 million euros, so it is better to buy potential stocks.

Of course, it was impossible for him to tell the Argentines about the reserve price.

His posture is very high, so that he can adapt to all changes.

Sure enough, Rodrigo moved first.

"I can only tell you now that there is a buyout clause in Don's contract, and I can't tell you how much it is, but as long as your club continues to add more, it will definitely touch the termination clause, and when the time comes, you guys, I'll be good, and Don will be ......good," Rodrigo said this, looked up at Summer, and his voice changed: " I believe that your club has fully understood the potential of Tang, and there is a more detailed assessment, I will not say much in this regard, and the huge Chinese market behind Tang has always been what you hope to develop, but what is lacking is only an opportunity, I believe that with the joining of Tang, Bayern Munich's golden sign is easy to enter the Chinese market and be accepted by Chinese fans......"

Summerer glanced at Rodrigo in surprise, he obviously didn't expect the other party to have such a detailed layout.

Now Tang Zheng and Bayern Munich are equivalent to a willingness to fight and a willingness to suffer, but Summerer has always been unwilling to admit it.

After Rodrigo's hint, he knew he couldn't wait any longer.

To be able to do the position of Bayern sports director, in addition to his great contribution to the club in the past, he also has a certain ability, and naturally knows that it is impossible for Rodrygo to come to Germany to sell only at Bayern, if Bayern does not buy it, other people who are not short of money like Wolfsburg will make a timely move.

They have Volkswagen behind them, and Volkswagen has been selling well in the Chinese market, if they sign Tang Zheng and carry out several promotional activities, the return on investment will rise geometrically.

Summerer knew it was time for him to reply: "Mr. Fibino, since we have the same purpose, then I will go back and communicate with the board of directors as soon as possible, and try to make an offer that satisfies River Plate before the Copa Libertadores final begins, what do you think?"

"I'm satisfied. Rodrigo smiled and stretched out his right hand: "That...... I wish us a happy cooperation. ”

"It was a pleasure to work with. ”

In fact, Wolfsburg are indeed considering an offer for Tang Zheng, who made history this season by surprisingly winning the first league title in the club's history and will go straight to the Champions League next season.

The current squad is okay with the Bundesliga, and if it is a two-line or even a third-line battle, it will be a bit stretched, so it is urgent to bring in reinforcements to strengthen the squad and bench depth, and Jochen Sauer, as the sporting director, has been very busy this summer.

In Porto, Lisbon, Valencia, London, Milan, Torino and other cities, a number of teams have raised their offers for Tang Zheng in a bid to bring him to Europe this summer.

And Tang Zheng, who is far away on the American continent, put all his mind on preparing for the second leg of the Copa Libertadores semifinals, even if he defeated Gremio 4:1 at home, he did not take it lightly.

As for where the future is, he is not in a hurry, anyway, it will naturally go straight to the bridge.
