Chapter 100 The Midfielder Needs Reinforcement

"Ah? Do you have something to tell me?" Zhou Yi was surprised.

In fact, the usual communication between him and Shaheen is not much, and it can even be said to be very good.

In the team, Zhou Yi has a good relationship with Gross Kreutz, and also has a good relationship with Gotze. After all, the two have played together in the youth team.

He also has a friendly relationship with most of his teammates.

And Shaheen is naturally the same.

But not all nice teammates are great friends.

The same goes for him and Shaheen.

He has no conflicts with Shaheen, but usually they don't get too close.

If there is nothing wrong, there will be almost no communication.

The only time when Shaheen was not doing well, Zhou Yi had to tell him his experience tactfully.

Just that once.

In addition, they usually just greet each other when they meet, and they rarely even chat.

So he was surprised that Shaheen would take the initiative to talk to him.

Shaheen didn't talk nonsense, nodded and got straight to the point.

"Actually, both of us know that the so-called dual-core tactics still have priorities, right?" he asked.

Zhou Yi nodded. Everyone knows this fact. It's just that this tactic is called dual-core.

"All along, I've been in charge of you. But for the next game, I want to change..." Shaheen said, "In the next game, I will assist you."

Zhou Yi looked at Shaheen in surprise.

"But the coach didn't arrange it like this..." he said after reacting.

"It doesn't matter." Shaheen waved his hand. "Originally, either of us can take the lead. We can discuss it ourselves. It's settled like this. You will be the core in the next game, and I will assist you."

After speaking, Shaheen got up and left.

Unexpectedly, behind him, Zhou Yi suddenly asked, "Are you going to Madrid?"

Shaheen stopped,

Looking back at Zhou Yi.

"Good luck, Nuri. That place is not easy." Zhou Yi said to Shaheen with a smile.

"Thank you, Zhou Yi."

After speaking, Shaheen opened the door of the locker room and walked out.

Looking at the closed door, Zhou Yi murmured in a protracted voice as if he was singing an opera: "Once you enter a rich family——deep like the sea~~~"

"We have already negotiated with Spain. The news will be announced at the end of the season." Zorc said to Klopp in his office.

"Well..." Klopp nodded. But my heart was a little melancholy.

Shaheen was recalled from Feyenoord after he stayed in Dortmund. At that time, the Turkish boy performed very well in Feyenoord. The Dutch club planned to buy out Shaheen, and Shaheen was also a little tempted.

After all, although he made his debut in Dortmund very early. But there are still not many opportunities, and his performance is not stable. Limited by Dortmund's own problems, he feels that the future of his career in Dortmund is not very bright.

It was Klopp who called Shaheen himself to tell him how important he was in his new plans. This made Shaheen give up the idea of ​​leaving Dortmund and return to Dortmund.

And under his guidance. Successfully became the core of the team.

Originally in Klopp's own plan, the young man Shaheen was the core of Dortmund for the next ten years and would eventually become the captain of the team.

He hoped so.

But in the football world. There are so many accidents that you can't go well according to your plan.

If Shaheen hadn't been injured in that game against Hoffenheim. Then Zhou Yi would not be able to get the chance to play.

If Zhou Yi did not play, then Klopp may not be able to discover the shining points of Zhou Yi until next season.

If Zhou Yi hadn't performed so well, he probably wouldn't have finally made up his mind to use Shaheen to extract a large transfer fee.

And the very first. If he hadn't accidentally seen Zhou Yi's game outside the youth team's training ground, I'm afraid all the stories after that would not have happened.

Shaheen will continue to stay in Dortmund, as the core of the team, leading Dortmund to challenge Bayern Munich's hegemony in the Bundesliga.

Now, Shaheen received a transfer fee of 16 million euros, and then left to make room for Zhou Yi.

This is the renewal and metabolism of the team. If it weren't for the Zhou Yi, Klopp would never let Shaheen go before finding a suitable replacement.

"How about Zhouyi?" Zorc asked Klopp again.

But Klopp didn't understand, what about Zhou Yi needs to be considered when selling Shaheen? He asked, "Huh?"

"We are going to play in the Champions League next season, but in terms of Zhou Yi's physical fitness, can he handle the two-line battle?" Zorc asked.

"Shaheen is sold, did you start to think about this issue?" Klopp laughed, and after teasing Zorc, Klopp explained. "I have considered the issue of Zhou Yi's physical fitness, but on the one hand, his current physical fitness is gradually improving. On the other hand, we also have other players to choose from in the midfield. After Shaheen left, it is not Zhou Yi who has benefited the most. , but Gotze, he will have more opportunities to play."

"Well, but we should continue to reinforce in midfield," Zorc said.

"I agree." Klopp raised his hands.

"So what do you think of this person?" Zorc said, pushing a folder in front of Klopp.

Klopp picked it up and turned the first page, only to find the face of an Asian player.

"A Chinese player again?" He looked up and asked.

"No. Of course not. It's a Japanese player."

"Oh, a representative of high quality and low price." Klopp casually teased Japan, then continued to scroll down and saw the player's name.

"Xagawa...Silk?" He struggled to spell the strange Japanese name in Roman alphabet.

"Shinji Kagawa." Zorc corrected Klopp's pronunciation, and then said, "Our scouts in Japan have observed him for a long time. He is a very good young player. In fact, half a year ago, there were many Few European teams are interested in him, but he stayed in Japan because he wanted to be able to participate in the World Cup in South Africa. It was said that he would go to Real Madrid and Barcelona for trials...but now he seems more inclined to join us. "

When Zorc introduced Shinji Kagawa, Klopp was looking at his information, including scouting reports and specific performance data.

After reading it, he asked Zorc: "How much is the transfer fee?"

"If we want, I estimate that it can be done within 400,000 euros." Zorke pointed out four fingers.

"It's really cheap..." Klopp grinned. Japan's national team international, young talent with potential for the World Cup, so cheap...

"Well, I have no problem. I just hope that he can be as high-quality and cheap as made in Japan." Klopp spread his hands.

"I have great trust in the eyes of our scouts in Japan. You must know that he has discovered another talented player before." Zorc laughed.

"Who?" Klopp asked.

"Zhou Yi."

Klopp froze for a moment before realizing who this scout in Japan was. "Tim Kiester?"

"Yes, that's him." Zorke nodded.

"Ah, I also believe in his vision." Klopp was about to get up and leave, but before leaving, he said to Zorc: "But I still have to correct it, Michelle. Zhou Yi was not discovered by Tim, It's me."

Pointing to himself, he said proudly.

On May 8, 2010, in the afternoon local time, at 9:30 p.m. Beijing time, the final round of the Bundesliga kicked off at the same time.

Dortmund away to Freiburg.

In this game, Zhou Yi and Shaheen continued to start at the same time. However, it is slightly different from previous games. From the beginning of the game, Zhou Yi appeared to be very proactive and kept asking his teammates for the ball.

In previous dual-core games, Zhou Yi was not active in this aspect. He put himself in the role of a supporter and let Shaheen control the rhythm of the game first. When Shaheen needed his support, he would step forward. out.

There is still a big difference in the two game styles and attitudes, so people who know the ball can see it in a short time.

Marcel Leff felt strange: "Zhou Yi's performance today... is very active. As the sub-core of the dual-core, what he did is a bit... overwhelming, right?"

Duan Xin also said: "Zhou Yi seems to have stolen Shaheen's limelight and job. He went deep into the back line many times to ask for it. This is Shaheen's territory..."

Tao Wei also felt strange: "Actually, Zhou Yi has always given people the impression that he is a player with a strong view of the overall situation. He can sacrifice himself for the overall situation. If the coach assigns different responsibilities to the two cores, he will rarely cross the line. .But now...he crosses the line a lot, what will Klopp think?"

Before the words fell, the game broadcast cut to Klopp's close-up.

Klopp in the camera frowned, sitting on a chair and talking to his assistant.

"Zhou Yi's performance today is very strange." Klopp tilted his head and said to Buvac.

"It can be seen that he retreated to the midfielder position several times, but this was not the case in the previous games." Buvac nodded.

"Why? And Shaheen doesn't seem to care..." Klopp frowned, this is what puzzled him the most.

Zhou Yi robbed Shaheen of his job, but Shaheen didn't seem to care.

This is completely different from his pre-match arrangement!

"I don't know either, but Jurgen, do you think this situation is going to jeopardize the team's performance?" Bovac asked.

"I don't know. The game has just started. I still need to observe."

"Then let's observe it." Buvac, as the assistant coach in charge of tactics of the team's coaching staff, was not in a hurry to make a decision.

"Well." Klopp nodded, staring at the court more intently.
