Chapter 273 The Hero Who Is Going, the Old Man Who Returns
Although it was not during the transfer period and there was no way to officially announce Yizhe's joining, everything had been arranged on Florentino's special plane back to Madrid. Real Madrid began to spread the news to the entire Europe through the mouthpiece media it controlled -
—Florence Noor visited Wolfsburg in person, and Yi Zhe has reached an agreement with Real Madrid!
All the details of the contract were even directly disclosed.
All the European media were in a state of panic. It was hard to believe it, because Marca also disclosed a photo of a meeting between Florentino and Yi Zhe.
There are pictures to prove it. If it is fake, it is indeed a meeting between the helmsman of Real Madrid and the core of Wolfsburg.
As a result, the focus of all front-line media in Europe has become very different.
Most media have a take-no-prisoners mentality. After all, the deal is rumored to involve a sky-high transfer fee of 210 million euros.
"Florentino strikes again! Yi's transfer value is about to set a new world football transfer record!"
"This is another big move by Florentino! According to the abilities of the Wolfsburg midfielder, this may be a blockbuster deal that surpasses Cristiano Ronaldo! Real Madrid has acquired a potential player for the next ten years.
leader!"
As for the Chinese media, when such news breaks out, linking Yi Zhe to Real Madrid, it is enough to make everyone crazy for the same reason.
"The number one player in Asian football! The Chinese footprint of the Bernabeu!"
"This is an epic hand-in-hand! Real Madrid once brought Zidane to the Bernabeu for a record transfer price. New record, new midfield master, new era at the Bernabeu!"
However, not everyone in Madrid approves of such a move.
As the coach of Real Madrid, Zidane was asked by the media.
"I would like to ask Mr. Zidane, is it your instruction to the club to recruit Wolfsburg midfielder Yi Zhe?"
Zidane did not shy away: "There should be no doubt about it, and you should also trust my judgment on midfielders."
"But what do you think about the club spending such a high transfer fee? Real Madrid has never paid such a high price for an Asian player."
"Sorry, this has nothing to do with me. Real Madrid is only focusing on the ownership of the league championship now."
On the contrary, amidst the exclamations of the melon-eating crowd, a group of Barcelona mouthpieces collectively fell silent and showed no reaction to the fact that their La Masia children were about to return to La Liga.
For Wolfsburg, it was an earthquake.
Although he was mentally prepared, the Wolfsburg training base was still blocked by a large number of reporters the next day. Anyway, it was the first time for Yi Zhe to see such a scene abroad. The reporters gathered outside the Wolfsburg gate reminded him of the Spring Festival travel season in China.
The scene. Even the security cordon could not stop the reporters who wanted to rush in to find out what was going on. It seemed that reporters from the whole city came.
The club's management was first questioned.
"Excuse me, Mr. Manager, are we going to let Yi go like this?"
"Has the club done anything to retain him?"
"Although I don't want to say this, I still want to ask Mr. Manager, are we experiencing a financial crisis?"
Manager Alofs smiled bitterly. He knew that sooner or later there would have to be an explanation, but he didn't expect it to be so soon.
"Gentlemen, your expressions now make me happy for the club's original choice." Manager Alofs calmly and modestly suppressed all the media's agitation with a low voice. He continued: "Yi has brought us unprecedented success.
Honor, and it is still bringing more honors. The club can no longer ask for more loyalty from such a player. Yi will always be Wolfsburg's hero."
In fact, the media knows it well, and they cannot keep him. After all, Wolfsburg is Wolfsburg, not a wealthy club. It cannot always stand at the top to satisfy a certain type of player's desire for honor.
They just felt it was unfair and it shouldn't be so simple. Even if Real Madrid was salivating, Yi Zhe should have kept the suspense until the end.
"Yi, what is it that makes you eager to leave?"
"Actually, you don't miss Wolfsburg at all, right?"
Yi Zhe felt something was wrong when he heard this, not because all the reporters had dissatisfaction and questions in their eyes for the first time, but why did he feel like a heartless person?
He shrugged his shoulders and met the eyes of all reporters: "I have a clear conscience for Wolfsburg, and for the future... I want to be loyal, but loyalty is indeed luxury enough, but now I just want to win all the championships for Wolfsburg
.”
The outside world has been noisy, but the team's condition is not bad. The second leg of the Champions League semi-finals is approaching, and Heijing's increased training volume is enough to make everyone put aside all distracting thoughts.
Wolfsburg already has an away goal and an advantage. This is the closest opportunity to history.
This game is not only a life and death battle, but also a return visit to De Bruyne's hometown.
The core of Wolfsburg is back!
At this moment when facing Wolfsburg reporters, De Bruyne smiled directly: "I will always miss my days at Wolfsburg. The greatest respect for this team is to give my best at the Volkswagen Arena."
"Kevin, you should know the horror here. Do you think you have a chance?" the Wolfsburg reporter asked arrogantly.
De Bruyne smiled: "No one knows the wolf's den better than me."
Wolfsburg's major fan organizations took action. Although the wolf head mask is the standard feature of Wolfsburg tonight, there are many posters of De Bruyne wearing Wolfsburg jerseys in the stadium, covering the surrounding stands.
When the two sides entered the stadium, De Bruyne glanced around and saw a video of himself playing here playing in the center of the stadium. The DJ in the stadium led all the fans and began to shout: "Let us welcome Wolfsburg."
The family is home, Kevin—"
"Kevin!
!
"
"Kevin!
!
"
"Kevin!
!
"
"Ouch——"
Sounds rang out from all directions, mixed with the iconic wolf howl here. De Bruyne smiled and walked to Yi Zhe's side.
"Still familiar? Kevin?"
De Bruyne did not answer, but looked at Yi Zhe: "It was a mistake to reject Manchester City, and it was even more stupid to choose Real Madrid, Yi Zhe."
Yi Zhe was stunned for a moment, then laughed: "Many people also said that I was finished when I left Barcelona, so...Kevin, do you want to take a gamble? Let time be the judge."
To be honest, De Bruyne suddenly brought this up, and Yi Zhe couldn't help but give him a bad review: the routine was too old and the pattern was too small.
De Bruyne was noncommittal: "Okay, but you are right to leave Wolfsburg. There is no difference here."
He said confidently that with his understanding of this place, he seemed to have won.
"Ding Ding, I appreciate your confidence! Keep it up!"
