He was rude and often got him into trouble, and he even had a conflict with Ronnie at one point."

Other domestic media also rushed to report on it.
As Su Dong's performance in European football becomes more and more outstanding, his popularity in China is also increasing.

inside?"
"If he were here, China might be able to score a goal against Turkey and even have a chance to rewrite history."
This made domestic fans who were deeply troubled by the regrets of the World Cup feel regretful.
Even the Turkish national football team admires it so much, why can't Su Dong make it to the national team?
What is the problem?
What is even more surprising is that the day after Sporting Lisbon played Lazio, the German Press Agency published a long review titled "People who create winning goals", commenting and summarizing the Asian overseas internationals in major European leagues.
The article first highly praised the Korean and Japanese international players, including Naotai Takahara who played for Hamburg and has performed well this season. He also spoke highly of Hidetoshi Nakata who played for Parma in Serie A and Shinji Ono who played for Feyenoord.
Got high praise.
Among the Korean players, Seol Ky-hyun who plays for Anderlecht in Belgium performed well, but Park Ji-sung and other players in the Eredivisie performed relatively average. According to sources, Seol Ky-hyun is likely to land in the Premier League next season.
Speaking of the Premier League, Chinese players Sun Jihai and Li Tie both performed mediocrely, and Japanese midfielder Junichi Inamoto also performed unsatisfactorily.
But in the second half of the long review, the German Press Agency spent nearly half of the space introducing Sporting Lisbon center Su Dong.
It not only listed Su Dong’s outstanding performance in the Portuguese Super League and UEFA Cup this season, but also relayed the high praise of Su Dong from many European media and professionals, believing that Su Dong, who has suddenly emerged this season, has become an Asian overseas player.

Deutsche Presse-Agentur believes that whether it is the UEFA Cup or the Portuguese Super League, Sudong has proven that he is a very promising young player and the most promising rookie in European football. He is attracting players from the four major leagues.
The attention of wealthy teams may land in the four major leagues at any time.
"According to reliable intelligence, Arsenal is very interested in this young center. Wenger hopes to sign him, but the biggest obstacle is Sudong's labor certificate. Arsenal hopes to sign him and loan him to the Eredivisie.
He may play in the First Division, or even rent him back to Sporting Lisbon, but Su Dong and his agent do not approve of this approach."
The report also revealed that many Bundesliga teams also have strong concerns about Sudong, including Bayern Munich.
As soon as the dpa report came out, it once again triggered a carnival among domestic media and fans.
If it were other media, that would be fine, but this is the DPA.
Deutsche Presse-Agentur Press Agency's high praise of Su Dong also made domestic media and fans feel excited.
Chinese football finally has a genius!
Su Dong's outstanding performance in Europe, especially his ability to dominate Korean and Japanese players, has won recognition and affirmation from many media including the German Press Agency, which has made domestic fans feel elated, proud and proud.

There are even many voices that believe that Su Dong has hope to compete for the Asian Footballer of the Year at the end of May this year.
What's interesting is that Su Dong has never been selected for the national team so far.
