Chapter 106 New Aid Target

Compared with transfers, Hiddink pays more attention to transfers. Most of the transfers are players that Hiddink no longer wants. Whatever the team does, transfers may be related to the survival of the team in the second half of the season.

It was difficult for Marin to integrate into the team, and Chelsea began to look for some backup options. The surprise for Zitzer was that his former teammates were also on Chelsea's inspection list.

Among them, Royce and Schurrle are listed.

But Royce quickly gave up, because it was too expensive, and as a Dortmund loyalist, Royce might not be willing to leave the Hornets, and taking a step back, even if Royce was willing to leave, he might not be willing to join Chelsea.

Because Royce obviously has the strength to play the main force at Chelsea, but what Chelsea need at this stage is a substitute who can play as a center forward. Royce will definitely not accept this position, no matter how good his relationship with Zize is. , everything should be career-oriented.

And Schurrle is a possible option, not to say that Schurrle is willing to be a substitute, but his ability is indeed not as good as Royce. If he goes to a giant that needs manpower, he may improve, because of the competition of the giants. It's very tragic, and Schurrle is also very demanding of himself. In the giants, there may be improvement for players like him.

For Schurrle, it was naturally recommended by Meyer and Zize. After careful consideration, Hiddink asked the team to introduce Schurrle by name.

The winter transfer work is proceeding in an orderly manner, and the players are also enjoying a rare moment of relaxation in winter.

Chelsea's transfer in the winter can be described as smooth. Sturridge sold 22 million pounds, and then the money was used to win Schurrle. Schurrle himself also very much hopes to come to the Premier League to compete for honor.

During the season, Leverkusen was actually unwilling to let people go, but in the end they still failed to overcome Chelsea's gold dollar offensive and let people go for 20 million pounds.

Twenty million pounds in this era is a sky-high price for most Bundesliga teams. In addition to Schurrle's desire to compete for honors, Zize's Chelsea is also an important factor in his decision.

However, not everyone will be happy when Xu Erle comes, and one of them is obviously Marin.

Although Marin is now injured, he also knows that his performance in the first half of the season was relatively average, but he still hopes to regain Hiddink's trust after he recovers from the injury, but he did not expect Chelsea to buy directly.

In fact, this is also normal. After Sturridge left the team, Chelsea needed a candidate on the front line. Schurrle, who can hit the sidelines and has a close personal relationship with Zize, Meyer and others, is naturally a good choice.

Marin also knows Schurrle. They have met in the German national team. The relationship is not bad, but it is far from the level of friends.

Marin was not happy about Schurle's visit this time, but he couldn't do anything, after all, he was injured now.

Chelsea has always been quick to move.

A week after Marin was injured, Schurrle's negotiations have basically come to an end. Some media have photographed Schurrle showing up in London to look for friends from the youth team, Zize and Meyer, chatting about old times.

Obviously, it is impossible for Schurrle to come to London specifically to chat and reminisce. The normal situation is that Schurrle is close to joining Chelsea.

This is indeed the case. The next day after the reporters took the photos, Chelsea announced on the official website the joining of German striker Andre Schurrle and the departure of Sturridge.

The fans are still very optimistic about this deal. First of all, Schurrle and Zize have known each other for a long time, and the two have a good relationship. Moreover, in Leverkusen, Schurrle has grown into one of the rising stars that are concerned by the whole of Europe , although Sturridge is also a little famous in the UK, but his style of play is too unique and not very popular with fans.

In fact, if Sturridge wants to say that he is a bit independent, he still has abilities. Chelsea fans also like Robben, who used to be very independent. But compared to Robben, Sturridge's ability is obviously much worse. It's not very flattering. You are not a superstar in a wealthy family. Unless you are at Robben's level, ordinary stars will have no way out in a wealthy family.

And Schurrle will not have this kind of problem. In Leverkusen, he is the core of the offense, but he is not alone. When he was in Mainz, Schurrle mainly assisted Zize, so it should not be too difficult to adapt.

After Schurrle joined, Chelsea continued to dive. Except for a few transfers, Chelsea did not make any moves in the transfer market.

Looking at the group of Chelsea players who are on loan, Zize pays more attention to De Bruyne.

Although it has been half a year since he left Dortmund, Zize still has deep feelings for the team he has played for for three seasons, so much so that when he heard that De Bruyne might join Dortmund as his own addition, he was still thinking about it. After a little hesitation, Zize immediately chose Chelsea.

From the conclusion of hindsight, Qi Ce must have caused Chelsea to lose a world-class star. De Bruyne's worth will not even be lower than the current Qi Ce in the future. Of course, this is also the result of future inflation.

But Zize believes that De Bruyne has nothing to do with Chelsea, and it is almost impossible for Zitz to change, because De Bruyne has been on loan for the next few years and was later sold to Wolfsburg in the Bundesliga. , without intersection, it is naturally impossible to have any impact.

Another obvious fact is that if De Bruyne is not loaned to Dortmund as an addition to Zitzer, he will be loaned to Werder Bremen by Chelsea and then sold to Wolfsburg.

This is also something Zize cannot intervene in. In other words, it will strengthen Dortmund's two main competitors, and the only thing Zize is sure of is to let De Bruyne go to Dortmund!

De Bruyne certainly wouldn't mind joining Dortmund. For him, it doesn't matter whether it's Bremen, Wolfsburg or Dortmund, as long as he can play the ball, so this deal will come naturally.

It now appears that this is a win-win deal.

Chelsea, Dortmund, De Bruyne and Zize all won. Zize became the core in Chelsea. With a few more games in the Premier League, he won the historical record of football and became the first person to score goals. De Bruy Nei also successfully played the main force in Dortmund. Dortmund and Chelsea also got what they needed. Dortmund got the money and De Bruyne, and Chelsea got the same plan, and they made great progress in various competitions.

De Bruyne's performance in the half of Dortmund's season was very amazing. He played 16 games this season, scored five goals and assisted seven times, helping Dortmund continue to exert pressure on Bayern Munich.

In the Bundesliga this season, Bayern Munich finally regained the half-time championship after Zize left. They are currently ranked first with 42 points in 17 games, while Dortmund has 4 points less and is closely behind with 48 points.

Chelsea has begun to regret it a bit and wants to recall De Bruyne, but De Bruyne said that he is very happy in Dortmund and has the idea of ​​staying in Dortmund for a long time. Dortmund is also preparing to start the buyout process-on loan at De Bruyne In the terms, the loan cannot be interrupted, and it lasts for two seasons. Among them, Dortmund can forcefully buy out De Bruyne at a price of 15 million pounds at any time.

This can be regarded as another great benefit left by Zize to his old club. Even if De Bruyne wants to leave in the future, at least he can leave Dortmund with a huge transfer fee, which will not be less than 50 million pounds , This also means that Zize's transfer fee to Dortmund is more than 200 million!

So the old club performed better and De Bruyne performed better, which is also Qi Ce's wish.

On the day the official announcement was made, Schurrle had already come to the Cobham training base to report and officially became a member of Chelsea. In terms of jersey number, he did not choose the number 23 left after Sturridge left the team, but Number 13 was chosen.

The number 13 is a very special number for the Germans, starting with the miracle worker Max Moloch in Bern, to the legends Gerd Müller, Wöhler, Ballack, and now Thomas Müller, Germany No. 13 has always been a legendary existence. In many Bundesliga clubs, No. 13 is the number of the best striker in the team.

Schurrle chose the vacant No. 13 as soon as he came, and his ambition can also be seen. At Chelsea, Schurrle is not just for a rotation substitute.

The joining of Schurrle is very important to Chelsea's formation. The frontcourt has increased the depth of the bench, and also added a wing point and a forward substitute. In the next League Cup, FA Cup and the Champions League knockout round in February Under such circumstances, it is estimated that Schurrle's chances will not be less.

Not long ago, in the UEFA Champions League knockout draw, Chelsea, the first in the group, drew against Valencia, the second in Group B. First the guest and then the host. Chelsea will go to the Mestalla Stadium in Valencia, Spain to challenge the Bat Army. Good sign, but at least it avoided Real Madrid, the second strongest player in the group.
