Football’s First Defender

On this side, before the football feast of the European Cup started, there was a gossip that Yang Feng, the core of Liverpool's backcourt, was seeking a transfer to leave Liverpool.

It is said that the player himself wants to leave Liverpool, and then the Liverpool team also expressed their willingness to let it go, and is seeking a match for the offer in the transfer market.

However, although Yang Feng's original Liverpool "not for sale" was put on the "shelves", but with the two-year contract still remaining, Liverpool must not lower Yang Feng's transfer fee.

When the news of Yang Feng seeking a transfer came out, Liverpool fans thought it was fake news.

After all, every year, during the gap period after the end of the season, there are fake news flying all over the sky, which tests the cognitive ability of fans.

Buying and selling people are all routines. For fans, let alone official announcements, as long as the new team does not make an appearance, it may be fake news.

And why did Yang Feng leave Liverpool?

After all, the team has just won three consecutive Premier League titles, and also won the Champions League last year.

The Liverpool team is in a very glorious period, how could Yang Feng leave the team and go to other giants?

However, as Liverpool has not made a sound to refute the rumors for a long time, and has allowed this "false news" to develop, many Liverpool fans feel that something is wrong.

What does it mean not to refute rumors?

Failure to refute rumors means that the media reports may be true.

If you don't refute the rumors, it's Yang Feng, who may really leave the team and go to other teams.

Liverpool fans panicked.

They are familiar with the back line with Yang Feng's Dinghaishenzhen to ensure the team's defense.

They are familiar with Yang Feng's various highlight performances when the opponent counterattacks, to block the opponent's attack and make the opponent helpless.

Even Liverpool fans are familiar with Yang Feng. Whenever at a critical moment, Yang Feng is in the penalty area as a threat to set the ball and contribute key points for the team.

But, is it possible that all this familiarity will disappear this summer?

Liverpool fans don't want Yang Feng to leave.

Whether it is domestic fans or foreign fans, they all went to Yang Feng's private social media to speak, hoping that Yang Feng can stay, stay in Liverpool, and continue to create brilliance.

But Yang Feng just replied "Time will prove everything" and stopped speaking.

Regarding the transfer of a big-name player like Yang Feng, it certainly cannot be completed overnight.

After Yang Feng confirmed that he was "listed for sale", almost all the wealthy teams came to inquire about Yang Feng's offer.

In today's football world, a good defender is worth a high price.

Even a player like David Luiz can have a very high net worth, not to mention a top central defender like Yang Feng who has fully proved his strength in the Premier League and even in the European competition.

How strong Yang Feng is, even if some fans don't admit it, but countless professional players, even if they are competitors for the central defender position, have to say that Yang Feng's strength is now, not to mention the number one without suspense, but the world's top Three is still guaranteed.

Even Yang Feng's excellent defensive statistics and offensive statistics may be the player closest to the Golden Globe Award after Melo, which is hard to say.

Many media have predicted that Yang Feng is expected to break the monopoly of the Ballon d'Or in the hands of Messi and Ronaldo, at least he is also the closest defender to the Ballon d'Or.

It's because Yang Feng's personal data is too gorgeous.

Excellent defensive data, excellent defensive success rate, when the interception and steals are all close to perfection, Yang Feng's offensive data is also very impressive.

Every season, the scoring data of ten goals, or even close to twenty goals, is not far behind some offensive star players.

And Yang Feng's long pass in the backcourt can sometimes directly penetrate the opponent's defense line, assist the frontcourt players, and directly penetrate the opponent's defense line.

The most important thing is that Yang Feng's defense is completely self-contained.

Even, in the team's defense line, a Yang Feng can be matched with any teammate at will, as long as he can help him limit the opponent's certain attacking space, the team can boldly launch an attack in the midfield.

For a wealthy team, the most important requirement for a central defender is not the defensive ability to defend the opponent's counterattack during the game.

As long as they can completely strangle the opponent's possible counterattack intentions during the game, the wealthy team can unscrupulously develop their own offensive strength to create pressure on the opponent.

The reason why sometimes the richer teams are more cautious as they go to the back of the iron barrel formation is that they are afraid that if the attack fails, they will be counterattacked at the end, and the gain will outweigh the loss.

So simply Yang Feng's role in the team's defense against the opponent's counterattack when "abusing food" is the key to allowing the rich team's defense to improve to a higher level.

Indirectly let the team's positional offensive ability also improve to a higher level.

Not to mention, Yang Feng's defensive ability is all-round.

The fledgling Yang Feng may still have very monotonous defensive characteristics, and he is more on the counter-attack end to contribute to the team.

But during these years in the Premier League, in Chelsea and Liverpool, Yang Feng has been constantly trying to improve his defensive skills, so that he has no weakness on the defensive end and has truly become a comprehensive defender.

Today's Yang Feng really doesn't have any defensive dead ends.

In addition to the ability to defend the opponent's counterattack that has been outstanding since his debut, Yang Feng has always maintained it, and even improved himself, and the defensive range has become larger.

Now when facing strong opponents and world-class strikers, Yang Feng's stable performance is equally important to the giants.

Especially Yang Feng's awareness of filling positions. In the past few years of European competitions, although he has not played so many times against top players like Messi and Ronaldo, in the limited number of matches, Yang Feng's own defensive performance is very good. pretty good.

As long as his teammates can be in the front and form enough pressure at the first time, then when the opponent's core players start to attack, Yang Feng can use his defensive ability to appear in the most suitable position at the first time after the offensive team forcibly escapes. The position, at the most critical moment, blocks the opponent's attack and destroys the ball.

Before, whether it was facing Messi or Ronaldo, Yang Feng's display of defensive ability was very good in the fight.

Generally speaking, the opponent's threatening attack on the penalty area, in addition to long-range shots, it is difficult to create enough threats if they want to directly attack the penalty area and face Yang Feng's defense.

This is even more true in the Premier League, where heroes compete for hegemony.

In the process of facing several strong teams, Yang Feng has always been the one who has done the best among the backline players in restricting their core offensive players of different styles.

This also allows Yang Feng to contribute to the team's excellent defensive performance in the strong dialogue, giving the team's defense a reassurance, and advantageously allowing Yang Feng to get the most out of the game.

Such an all-round central defender naturally attracts many rich teams.

You know, if you can get Yang Feng, it will be a huge improvement for the team's defensive strength.

Moreover, if you get Yang Feng, your opponent won't get it!

In today's Champions League, when there are only a few teams left with the strength to compete for the championship, buying Yang Feng means that the team's strength will increase. For other teams, it is to avoid the opponent's enhancement. .

Real Madrid in La Liga, Barcelona, ​​Bayern in Bundesliga, Paris in Ligue 1, Juventus in Serie A, Inter Milan, Manchester City in the Premier League, Yang Feng's old club Chelsea, and even Liverpool's mortal enemy Manchester United all came to ask for quotations.

At this time, even Liverpool's mortal rival Manchester United can only say "really sweet" when they come to send an offer. After all, no matter how much you hate Yang Feng, it is still in the game. If you can have such a player on your side, then it must be very good.

It's just that Liverpool rejected all offers from Premier League teams immediately.

Liverpool doesn't want to become an enemy at this time. Liverpool knows how powerful Yang Feng is. "Selling" Yang Feng to other teams is a great supplement for other teams. , will affect Klopp's performance in the next few seasons, and will also be criticized by fans.

Therefore, even though Manchester City, after Guardiola took over, really waved their checkbooks to recruit troops, and received Guardiola's instructions to spare no expense to discuss Yang Feng's transfer with Liverpool, Liverpool did not agree. , and the player's personal wishes will not agree.

Yang Feng simply wanted to change to a new environment, and wanted to continue to compete for more honors.

After leaving Liverpool, after playing in the Premier League for so long, Yang Feng still plans to go to a new environment.

Among all the contenders for Yang Feng, the wealthy teams seeking a breakthrough in the Champions League all want to use Yang Feng as a hole card to strengthen the team's defense and enhance their ability in strong dialogues.

In the end it was Real Madrid who stood out!

There are many teams with strong financial strength, but they are strong enough to match Liverpool's offer, and with that financial strength and courage, only Real Madrid can win Yang Feng.

The financial requirements of the Bundesliga make even Bayern generally not use large funds to buy players.

Bayern originally offered Liverpool a price of 50 million euros, and Liverpool's management didn't even bother to look at it.

Although in today's football, the value of defensive players is definitely not as high as that of offensive players, but for Liverpool, 50 million euros is still too childish.

According to people familiar with the matter, after the bid to buy Yang Feng was rejected, Manchester City turned their signing target to Everton's young central defender Stones.

Everton, a black shop, dares to keep the starting price of Stones at more than 50 million euros, and then other teams just buy Yang Feng directly if they want to get 50 million euros, that is still too ridiculous.

Bayern in the Bundesliga did not pay any more money and were eliminated, while Inter Milan and Juventus in Serie A also couldn't spend that much money.

In recent years, Italian football has tightened their belts and lived a hard life. If they want to spend a lot of money, they still want to buy defensive players that are not lacking.

And Ligue 1's Greater Paris, with the capital injection of oil capital, after winning consecutive Ligue 1 championships, the primary goal is of course the Champions League. This season's summer transfer window, of course, still pursues the "buy, buy, buy" strategy.

In the past few seasons, as soon as they entered the Champions League, the defense collapsed. This also made Paris want to spend a lot of money to buy Yang Feng and hit the Champions League next season.

And Paris is indeed in Yang Feng's plan, but it is the influence of Ligue 1 and the overall competition intensity of Ligue 1 that makes Yang Feng a little entangled.

It is really that the level of other teams in Ligue 1 is too weak, and they play casually in the league. For Yang Feng, he feels that it is not worthwhile to go to Ligue 1 to "retire" now.

But Yang Feng actually has a goal in his heart, and that is Real Madrid.

As a Real Madrid fan with a "children's dream", it was also Yang Feng's dream to play for Real Madrid in his peak period.

Although Real Madrid sought to buy Yang Feng a few years ago, Yang Feng firstly wanted to hone himself thoroughly in the Premier League, and secondly, he also wanted to continue to establish his position in football.

After all, if you don't have an outstanding football status, and don't have a high net worth to join Real Madrid, then go to Real Madrid to play as a substitute?

Now joining Real Madrid, Yang Feng must know whether Real Madrid will really buy him.

In the process of comparing Liverpool with each other and waiting for quotations, Real Madrid, which is also the core management, held a small meeting.

"Buy! Yang Feng's strength, his offensive ability and defensive ability are all top in the world. The best player is matched with the best team. Of course, he must be bought."

"But we already have Ramos, Pepe, Varane, and Nacho. You know, we can only play two central defenders in a game, even if Nacho doesn't care about playing time, Varane, Ramos , what do you say to Pepe?"

"And it is said that Liverpool directly rejected Bayern's offer of 50 million euros. How much do we offer? It seems that 60 to 70 million is impossible to satisfy the Americans in Liverpool. Is it worth buying a Yang Feng that we don't really need?"

"Gentlemen!"

When the "Lafayette" Florentino, who was sitting in the main seat, spoke, the others were silently listening.

"You know, what is our goal for next season! It's the Champions League champion! It's the defending Champions League champion!"

"Reinforcement is one aspect, and preventing opponents from strengthening is also another aspect. And imagine Yang Feng's status as a Chinese player, combined with Real Madrid, how much income can bring us in the East..."

When Liverpool heard the news of in-depth contact with Real Madrid, they asked Yang Feng for his opinion, and Yang Feng agreed.

For Yang Feng, when the decision to transfer to Real Madrid is made, everything will be a new beginning.

New league environment, new teammates, new style of play.

Although everything is unknown, this feeling of challenge is what Yang Feng is looking forward to.

Yang Feng, who has proved himself in two giant teams in the Premier League in a row, set his next goal of surpassing himself on the top giant team in Europe, Real Madrid. This is his self-confidence and motivation for himself .

With a new season and a new start, Yang Feng has a lot to look forward to.
