Chapter 276: 100 Million Euros?
In the first round of the 2012-2013 German Cup, the Bundesliga and Bundesliga teams basically won and advanced, but there were also teams that unexpectedly lost. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
For example, the Bundesliga team Hoffenheim lost 0:4 to the German C-based team Berliners 07 when it sent a large number of substitutes, causing a great upset.
But the attention of the German media and the mainstream European media was not on the first round of the German Cup, but on Dortmund.
A day ago, the Spanish electronic media "Confidential" revealed that Bayern Munich's offer for Tang Zheng reached 80 million, which was rejected by Dortmund, and said that it was less than 100 million euros for the interview.
Looking at world football, has a transfer of up to 100 million euros ever happened?
No!
Cristiano Ronaldo, who set a record transfer fee in world football in the summer of 2009, is only 94 million euros, and Tang Zheng is worth 100 million euros?
The media that likes to complain is worried that there is no news recently, and the result of no news will lead to problems in the sales of newspapers.
It's good now, there is nowhere to find the iron shoes, and it takes no effort to get them.
The headline of Catalan media El Monde Sport said: "Oh-My-God! You may not believe it, but it is true! A number of giants want to take Borussia Dortmund's star this summer, OK! No problem, 100 million euros!
Don't look at the headlines of "World Sports" that tend to Tang Zheng, it is actually a headline party, and there are many criticisms of Dortmund and Tang Zheng in the article.
The headline of the British media "Daily Mirror": "The maximum transfer fee is likely to be incurred before the summer transfer window closes, 100 million euros!
The Telegraph: "Bayern's nemesis is worth 100 million euros, a big joke!"
Real Madrid, Barcelona, Manchester United, Chelsea, Bayern Munich, Paris Saint-Germain and other giants have offered Tang Zheng, hoping to take him away this summer.
But when he heard the 100 million euros, he immediately withdrew the offer.
100 million euros, what an international joke?
Bayern Munich re-contacted Xavi Martinez, Real Madrid restarted negotiations with Luka Modric, Barcelona approached Arsenal for Alexander Song, and Chelsea threw a cheque to buy Oscar for Internacional......
The summer transfer market is underflowing, and the news released by the media from various countries is endless.
Tang Zheng, who saw the media reports, was speechless, but his attention was all on the preparation of the league, and he didn't pay too much attention to the media's comments at all?
Of course, if there is a critical media, it will naturally be a strong media.
The Chinese media and the North Rhine-Westphalia media claimed that Tang Zheng was indeed worth 100 million euros, and the Rheinische Zeitung reported that Tang Zheng's performance in the Bundesliga over the past three seasons was on the rise.
In the 2009-2010 Bundesliga season, he started 29 games and came off the bench in three games, contributing 13 goals and 17 assists.
In the 2010-2011 Bundesliga season, he scored 18 goals and 21 assists in 33 starts, breaking Misimovic's record of 20 assists in a single season, and scored 11 goals and 9 assists in the Europa League, which was the biggest contributor to Dortmund's first time in history.
And this season's Dortmund also won the league championship and the German Cup, which is equivalent to a treble.
In the 2011-2012 Bundesliga season, he started 32 games and a substitute, scored 17 goals and 23 assists, once again setting a new record for assists in a single season.
If it weren't for the referee missing three penalties from Dortmund in the second leg of the Champions League quarter-finals, the team that would eventually advance to the semi-finals is still unknown.
Is it not worth 100 million euros to be able to come up with such unnatural figures in the Bundesliga, the five major leagues in Europe, and the Champions League, the best league in the world?
Don't forget, there is also a huge Chinese market behind him.
Is the green field and the Chinese market really worth 100 million?
The most important thing is that Tang Zheng has not yet turned 23 years old this year, and his real future is immeasurable!
During the period, "Dortmund Sports Newspaper" broke the news that Tang Zheng and Dortmund FC completed the renewal of their contracts last summer, and the liquidated damages were as high as 100 million euros.
Therefore, if Bayern Munich, Real Madrid and Barcelona and other giants want to take Tang Zheng, they must come up with the liquidated damages set by the contract between the two parties, which is the most common additional clause in the contract of players in world football.
Despite this, the media, which likes to chase after the wind and take things out of context, does not want to let Tang Zheng and Dortmund go so quickly.
The new season is approaching, there is limited sensational and readable news, and it is rare to have a news topic that forms public opinion, how can it be easily let go?
In this regard, Dortmund FC had no choice but to hold a press conference in the press conference hall of the Westfalfa Stadium to clarify some things.
Press officer Joseph Schnecker first angrily reprimanded the media who spread the news, and then said that the team had a long-term plan, and never thought of peddling Tang Zheng, because Tang Zheng is the absolute core of the team, not for sale!
But what I didn't expect was that the media opened their minds again, and they thought that Tang Zheng was not for sale, but that there was a difference in price.
In those days, there was nothing that could not be sold.
As long as the price is right, not to mention the core, the team is sold!
The big move of the media caused panic among Dortmund fans.
They are not pseudo-fans, they are fans who really understand the ball, and they know that Dortmund's success is inseparable from Tang Zheng's dedication, and if the team sells Tang Zheng, it is conceivable what will become of Dortmund, whose results have risen.
While preparing for the new season of the league, Tang Zheng also paid attention to media reports, and he didn't want to respond.
Now the media has made a big fuss, and he has to issue statements on his personal verified official Weibo and Twitter, saying that he has no intention of leaving the new season, and hopes that the media will stop talking nonsense, otherwise he will not rule out choosing legal channels to defend his rights.

In the blink of an eye, a week passed, and the focus of the media gradually shifted back to the national leagues.
The 2012-2013 Bundesliga season will also officially kick off.
At 7 p.m. local time on August 24, the opening match was played at the Westphalia Stadium, and Dortmund welcomed the challenge of Werder Bremen.
After 90 minutes of fierce battle, Dortmund at home defeated the away team Werder Bremen 2:1.
It is worth mentioning that Tang Zheng, who is at the center of public opinion in the past few days, has performed well, and it is his goals and assists that have helped Dortmund get a good start to the new season.
The next day, the 2012-2013 Bundesliga season kicked off.
The first round of the league ended at 6:30 p.m. local time on August 26, and Bayern Munich, who beat promoted Matterhoff 3-0 away yesterday, topped the table on goal difference.
Defending champions Borussia Dortmund are tied for third with Borussia Mönchengladbach and Eintracht Frankfurt, while promoted Madtun Dusseldorf are second in second place, the capital of North Rhine-Westphalia.
At the end of the weekend, the focus of the European mainstream media was on the draw for the 2012-2013 Champions League group stage in Monaco at the end of the month.
In the new season of the Champions League, the Chinese media focus is not only on Dortmund and Schalke 04, but also on the Belgian team Anderlecht, because the 2011-2012 Bundesliga season before the end of the eye-catching Chinese teenager Lu Liang is not in Klopp's new season plan, in order to ensure that Lu Liang can have a good development space, he was loaned to Anderlecht.
Anderlecht is a Belgian giant, the 2011-2012 Belgian champion, won a place in the 2012-2013 Champions League, which means that Lu Liang, who is on loan at Anderlecht, has the opportunity to make his Champions League debut.
On the morning of August 30, local time in Europe, Tang Zheng, Pirlo, Hummels and manager Jurgen Klopp went to Monaco to participate in the draw for the 2012-2013 Champions League group stage and the UEFA award ceremony.
Prior to this, the authoritative German football media "Kicker" magazine announced the 2012 German Footballer of the Year and Best Coach candidates.
Tang Zheng won the German Footballer of the Year award again last year, and he became the sixth professional player to win the German Footballer of the Year two years in a row, following Borussia Mönchengladbach's Netzer, Bayern Munich's Sepp Meier, Kahn, Ballack and Borussia Dortmund's Summer.
Jurgen Klopp led Borussia Dortmund to successfully defend the league title and deserved to be the best coach.
The draw for the 2012-2013 Champions League group stage and the UEFA awards ceremony took place at 5.45pm at the Grimaldi Convention and Cultural Centre.
Borussia Dortmund reached the quarter-finals of the Champions League last season and have increased their European points a lot, moving from the fourth to the third.
However, this bracket of rankings has somewhat frustrated the German media, as Dortmund have only 0.241 points less European points than second-tier Dynamo Kyiv.
Even more shameful are Valencia, who are just 0.159 points behind AC Milan in eighth place in the first pot.
Dortmund failed to finish second and many of the mainstream European media felt a little excited, which meant that the possibility of the group of death was greatly increased.
You must know that the teams in the fourth pot also have Ajax and Malaga, plus Dortmund, Juventus and Paris Saint-Germain in the third pot, the probability of death is very high.
The draw ceremony started on time, and UEFA Secretary General Gianni Infantino was once again the host.
The Champions League group draw was filled with superstars, including former Manchester United superstar Dennis Law, former World Footballer of the Year George Weah, Dutch legend Ruud Ruud Gullit and Italian centre-back Fabio Cannavaro.
Dennis Law identified the eight teams in Pot 1, with George Weah drawing Pot 2, Ruud Gurlitt drawing Pot 3 and Cannavaro drawing the final Pot 4.
After the draw ceremony was followed by the UEFA Awards Ceremony, an award established from last year with the intention of reinstating the European Ballon d'Or and re-competing with FIFA's Ballon d'Or.
