In fact, before the match against Werder Bremen, some transfer rumors about Shahin appeared one after another.

But after defeating Werder Bremen, there was a big news.

That is the giant in European football, Real Madrid announced their interest in Shahing.

Florentino admitted to reporters in person: "Yes, we are paying attention to Dortmund's Shaheen, who is a very talented player."

The reporter simply asked a little more naked: "So do you want him to play for Real Madrid?"

"We hope that the best players in the world can play for Real Madrid." Florentino did not give a positive answer, but it also gave the reporter a signal.

He was like a circle and nodding.

Yes, Real Madrid just wants to buy Shaheen!

After this news came out, it was different from the previous transfer rumors.

First of all, this is not a rumor, and secondly, the charm of Real Madrid is hard to resist.

In European football, there are several rich teams, but in terms of attractiveness, it is not enough to have money.

Manchester City is very rich now, but they are not attractive enough. Otherwise, Kaka would not have given up on Manchester City at the last moment, and chose Real Madrid six months later.

Real Madrid is powerful because they have strong financial resources and great attraction. Now there is another powerful helm with rich means.

After taking office last summer, Florentino has made big moves one after another, buying all players like Kaka, Cristiano Ronaldo, Alonso and Benzema in one go.

It was shocked Europe at that time, and his rival Barcelona won the triple crown, which was so popular that he was suppressed by Florentino's big moves after his return.

Real Madrid has proved to people time and time again that in the European football market, there are only things they don’t want to buy, and there are nothing they can’t buy. You must know that even Barcelona’s captain Figo turned to Real Madrid back then?

So when Real Madrid announced the news of interest in Shahin, this inevitably caused Dortmund to be nervous.

Michel Zorke, the general manager of the club, said: "Shaheen is a non-sale product of the club, and we will not sell our core."

However, his statement seemed meaningless to the media.

One thing that Dortmund has always been criticized is that it cannot retain the core players in the team.

Although this team has won the Champions League and League championships, it still lacks some background compared to Bayern Munich, especially since they have fallen into an economic crisis, they have completely lost their ambitions.

As long as the player plays out, sell it while the price is still high and make money to fill the team's financial loopholes.

Dortmund has not yet completely escaped from the fiscal crisis, so if Real Madrid really pays a big price, how could Zorke not sell Shaheen?

He said this now, and it sounded like a bargaining—“Without giving us a big price, Shahin is just a non-selling product!”

In the 30th round of the league, Dortmund challenged Mainz away.

When the team arrived on the away game, Shahin was surrounded by reporters. The questions asked had nothing to do with the next game. They were asking about him and Real Madrid.

"I'm honored to be favored by Real Madrid. Real Madrid is a very good team. I also dreamed of playing for Real Madrid one day. But not now, now I still have a contract with the club..."

Shahin's answer was more formulaic, and a reporter asked: "But isn't your agent in negotiations for renewal with the Dortmund club?"

"yes……"

"Then what impact will this matter have on your contract renewal?"

"I don't think it will have any impact. Our contract renewal began very early, and this happened just now."

The reporter is not that easy to deal with, and another reporter immediately raised a more difficult question: "Is this related to your contract renewal negotiation strategy? Do you use this matter to put pressure on Dortmund?"

Shahin waved his hand quickly: "This is baseless nonsense!"

After saying that, he turned around and left without accepting any interviews.

Before the start of the match between Dortmund and Mainz, Marcel Leif was also saying that he hopes the recent transfer rumors and contract renewal negotiations will not affect Shahin's performance in this game...

But his words came true. Shahin's performance in this game was really bad, like sleepwalking.

And the whole Dortmund team's luck was a little bad.

Even if Zhou Yi is still working very hard, he can't turn the tide in this game.

His physical performance was still unstable and he was replaced in the 70th minute.

In the end, Dortmund lost 0:1 away to Mainz, who ranked far inferior to theirs. It was revealed that this round of the league was not big or small.

In the 31st round, Dortmund faced Hoffenheim, whom they had defeated in the first half of the season, but was eventually tied by his opponent 1:1.

Meanwhile, their rival, Bayern Munich, beat Hannover 96 at home 7:0.

Shahin's performance in this game was still not good. Marcel Leif criticized Shahin for being disturbed by transfer rumors and contract renewal negotiations, and was unable to maintain his condition and was too distracted from the field.

Shahin's issue also became the focus of everyone's discussion after the game.

Since Real Madrid spoke out, Shahin's condition has become erratic. Although Shahin denied that his poor condition was related to transfer rumors and the renewal of the contract, everyone thought that he was just unwilling to admit it publicly.

Inside the Dortmund club, Shahin and his agent Resa Farzeli were also talking about.

"How is the negotiations between Michelle, Shahin?" Klopp found Zorke, the general manager of the club, and asked about the renewal.

Although Shahin does not admit that his recent downturn is related to contract renewal, Klopp believes that the problem lies in the contract renewal.

"Not very good, Jurgen Fazeli proposed the conditions too high. They asked us to increase Shahin's salary by a little more than 5 times. This is difficult to meet the club's current finances... He also put forward a high bonus requirement." Zorke shook his head. "In addition, in terms of liquidated damages, the numbers they raised are far from our expectations."

Klopp asked again: "Do you think they can finally accept our conditions?"

"If there was no Real Madrid, it would be OK." Zorke spread his hands and smiled bitterly.

So Klopp knew that it would be difficult for Shahin to calm down and accept the conditions offered by Dortmund when Real Madrid invited him.

Seeing Klopp silent, Zorke said: "I will fight for it again, Jurgen. Anyway, Shahin and our contract will not end until 2013."

Shahing's current contract penalty is only 6 million euros. With Shahing's performance in the past two seasons, the six million euros are completely the same as a free one.

The original contract stipulated that when the contract was only one year left, the penalty clause could be initiated.

So even if those clubs are now drooling at Shahin, they cannot use the liquidated damages to take Shahin away.

Unless you wait until after the summer of 2012.

So there is still time for the Dortmund club.

Now that the summer of 2010 has not arrived, the club has two years to complete the contract renewal.

But Klopp couldn't wait for so long. If the contract extension is not finalized one day, Shahin will continue to be attracted by giant clubs like Real Madrid, which will make Shahin still concentrate on the current arena.

If Shahin's condition continues to be affected, Dortmund's performance will also be affected.

Now Dortmund has accumulated 60 points in 31 rounds, Schalke has scored 58 points, and has already caught up. Werder Bremen is also following 54 points.

If Dortmund makes a slight mistake in the next three rounds of the league, it may still fall out of the Champions League area.

Klopp doesn't want this to happen.

So he asked Zolk: "Can't we get this done as soon as possible?"

Zorke soon realized what Klopp was worried about, and he asked, "Have you talked to Shahin?"

"We've talked, but Shahin told him that he was a professional player and that he would not ask about the renewal time to his agent. And he said that he didn't think too much about the temptation of Real Madrid... I think it was all his refusal, and some scenes were meaningless." Klopp spread his hands.

After hearing Klopp's words, Zorke also fell into deep thought.

Shahin said that he would not be affected, but the actual performance was that he had been affected.

But Shahing is indeed very important to Dortmund, how can she let it go easily?

According to Zorke's philosophy, if we want to sell a player, we must prepare the plan in advance. Once this player leaves the team, I will immediately have a player who can support him.

Otherwise, I wouldn't have sold the player.

If Shahin had to leave, would we have someone who could successfully replace him?

Thinking of this, Zorke's eyes suddenly lit up and then asked, "Jurgen, what do you think of Zhou Yi?"

"Ah?" Klopp didn't react at first.

"You are playing with dual cores now, but in fact, Shahin is the main one and Zhou Yi is the auxiliary one?" Zorke continued to ask.

"Ah, yes..." Klopp also suddenly understood, and he looked at Zorke, "You mean..."
