Chapter 350
Another UEFA Cup semi-final came a day later, with Sevilla beating Espanyol to reach the final.

On May 5, at Hampton Park Stadium, Cologne and Sevilla will stage the final competition for the UEFA Cup this season.

However, the media focus is still on Tang Zhenglong who performed the Big Four.

Overnight, Tang Zhenglong's entire name became popular on the continent of Europa.

"Didn't expect the Bundesliga to have such a strong striker?"

From Gazzetta dello Sport

Because one of the teams in the final was from Spain, the reporter of "Aspen" also paid attention to the semi-final in Cologne.

"Bremen seems to have given up the game ahead of time. Tang Zhenglong's 4 goals were very watery."

"Aspen" specifically talked about the second ball.

"When Tang Zhenglong took a long shot from outside the penalty area, none of the Bremen players stepped forward to block it. This is very ridiculous."

Reports suggest that Sevilla is a far stronger team than Bremen, so this semi-final is of little reference.

Another large sports media "Kicker" praised Cologne's performance.

"From the Bundesliga to the European War."

"The miracle continues in Kaiserslautern."

For the Germans, the miracle of Kaiser is the counterattack of civilians, but for the European war, there has been no miracle of Kaiser. In the UEFA Cup or the Champions League, it is more difficult for weak teams to counterattack than ascend to the sky.

"Cologne's victory is a football victory. Last season they were still playing in the Bundesliga [-], but now they have reached the final of the UEFA Cup."

The report analyzed Tang Zhenglong's performance in detail, and created a new term - phenomenal striker.

"Tang Zhenglong is the kind of player who can't be seen from a traditional perspective. Only this new term can describe him, a phenomenal striker, a striker who is full of shortcomings, has a flamboyant personality, but can always score goals at critical moments."

The war of words in the media continued, and soon, the focus of the media shifted from Tang Zhenglong's four-time performance to his transfer.

Because according to intelligence, Tang Zhenglong's agents have been active in the UK recently, so the media naturally contacted that it might be related to Tang Zhenglong.

At the Cologne club training base, there are a lot of media watching the training today. What is different from the past is that there are many more foreign media. For this reason, the Cologne club also hired Spanish translators.

Stevens stayed after practice to face the media.

"I heard that Tang Zhenglong is leaving?"

Stevens knew that this was beyond his control. Judging from Tang Zhenglong's performance this season, leaving Cologne is a high probability event.

Tang Zhenglong's situation is similar to Podolski's. The better his performance, the faster he will leave the club.

Stevens said with a smile: "As long as the transfer fee is enough, anyone can leave. There is no non-sale item in Cologne."

"Will Tang Zhenglong go to Bayern?"

"We will not sell Tang Zhenglong to an opponent in the Bundesliga. If the Bundesliga team wants to buy Tang Zhenglong, then the price is at least double that of foreign clubs."

Depend on! !

The journalists have black lines on their foreheads. With Tang Zhenglong's current worth, 1500 million euros is the minimum, and the Bundesliga team has to spend 3000 million, which is basically impossible.

A local reporter from Cologne asked: "Has the team tried to keep Tang Zhenglong? Even try."

In many things, failure is justifiable, but if you don't even try, it is a matter of attitude.

Stevens has a complicated expression. A team like Cologne trains stars and sends them to big clubs. This is the rule of the game in the football world.

Batty can't be in Florence forever, people always have to eat.

Stevens could only forcefully laugh: "Our goal is to cultivate the next Podolski, the next Tang Zhenglong."

"This is our philosophy of existence, we are not Bayern, Juventus."

"About the transfer fee, does the club have any psychological expectations?"

"I can't answer this point. Only after the signature is signed can you know how much Tang Zhenglong sold for."

At this point, there is no need to cover up many things, otherwise it would be very fake. For example, Podolski has already looked for a house in Munich, and then the club said that we don’t know anything, that is to treat the reporter as a fool.

"Will the transfer of Tang Zhenglong and Lucas affect the UEFA Cup final?"

"They are professionals, they will not be affected, and I would also like to say that Sevilla is not as easy as us."

In fact, this is very true. Sevilla is facing a greater problem of personnel loss, and the head coach Juande Ramos has a big head.

Alves was spotted by Barcelona, ​​forward Fabiano, winger Keylor Navas, Adriano, and striker Kanoute were all targeted by the giants.

Some Spanish media predict that if Sevilla wins the championship, the team will lose at least half of its stars.

Stevens shrugged. "Everyone has their own problems. That's football."

*****
England, Liverpool.

This is Benitez's third season in charge of Liverpool. Although there were miracle nights like Istanbul during this period, in general, Liverpool is not considered a strong team in the Premier League, especially an embarrassing record that continues, that is, after the restructuring of the Premier League, Liverpool still has no championship.

For Liverpool fans, the league championship is even more important than the Champions League, and what you can't get is always the best.

After thinking about it, Benitez felt that he had figured out the gap between Liverpool and other giants, that is, the lack of a top striker.

Manchester United has Wayne Rooney, Arsenal has Henry, Chelsea has Didier Drogba, and Liverpool's strikers are Fowler, Crouch, and Dirk.

It's not that these players are bad, but they are still far from top strikers.

So Benitez was preparing to introduce a top striker in the summer. At this moment, he saw the news of Tang Zhenglong's four-year-old in the UEFA Cup semi-finals.

UEFA Cup...

Benitez's nerves suddenly became sensitive. It is relatively common for giants to poach people from the UEFA Cup, because the players who play in the UEFA Cup are definitely not top giants, so for a player, being able to go to a giant is equivalent to upgrading.

Benitez is going to send his assistant to Cologne to have a look and try to make a tentative offer if it is suitable.

*****
London, Arsenal.

The hype surrounding Thierry Henry's move to Barcelona has finally settled.

Henry moved to Barcelona at a price of 2400 million euros. Wenger could only be helpless about this. He didn't want to see such a thing happen. What he hoped was that Henry could die at Arsenal forever.

But Henry's childhood dream was to join Barcelona, ​​so Wenger couldn't stop him, and the breakup between the two parties was considered peaceful.

Henry is gone, life still has to go on, someone must replace Henry, and Wenger's eyes are focused on Tang Zhenglong.

Because Chelsea are said to be flirting with Mino Raiola.

What Chelsea wanted, Wenger wanted to grab it, so he also started to do it.
