Chapter 501 Bayern's No. [-] Curse

"Hello, Sue, welcome to Bayern!"

"Welcome, Sue!"

"I'm so glad you chose Bayern!"

"My God, Sue, it's such a pleasure to see you!"

"It's really great, Sue, I'm excited to be your teammate just thinking about it!"

"You are really here, I suspect that I am dreaming."

……

To Su Dong's complete surprise, in the club office, under the leadership of captain Kahn and vice-captain Sagnol, many Bayern players were waiting for him.

As soon as they saw him, they all came up to welcome him.

Kahn, Sagnol, Sauer, Lucio, Lahm, Schweinsteiger, Van Bommel, Van Buyten, Hummels, Rensing, Demichelis, Otter, Podolski...

Su Dong was also very polite, shaking hands with his teammates one by one, and some who were familiar with him before even hugged them politely.

"Hey, buddy!" Van Bommel directly doubled his palms with Su Dong and hugged him heavily.

The two didn't actually have a deep friendship in Barcelona, ​​but when they came to Bayern Munich, they both needed to report to each other to keep warm.

After meeting everyone, Su Dong slowly backed away, and opened his arms to everyone, thanking them for their warm welcome.

In fact, he also noticed.

Most of the players who came to the scene today were midfielders and backcourt players. Only Podolski came to the forward line because he is a local player, like Ma Kai, Pizarro, Santa Cruz, and even Karimi, who is also an Asian player, did not come.

This is not difficult to guess, because after Su Dong's arrival, it is basically equivalent to a sentence of death in Bayern.

Many outside media are talking about it, thinking that Su Dong's coming to Bayern is a blow to reduce dimensionality, which means helping the poor with technology, but for many Bayern players, even the vast majority of Bayern players, Bayern is the pinnacle of their careers.

This sounds cruel, but it is an out-and-out fact.

Su Dong understood this very well, and was not displeased at all, because if it was him, he would probably do the same.

……

From Sporting Lisbon to Valencia to Barcelona, ​​it's not the first time Sudong has joined a new team.

Although each time is different, there are many similarities.

Su Dong is very clear that if he wants to gain a firm foothold in Bayern, the first thing he has to do is to integrate into the locker room and gain the recognition and trust of the players in the locker room.

Therefore, when Kahn asked him the first thing he wanted to do after coming to Munich, Su Dong immediately jokingly said that he wanted to know which is the best restaurant in Munich.

"Why do you want to know the best restaurant?" Ram asked strangely.

Everyone was also very puzzled, because in their impression, Su Dong didn't seem like a foodie.

"Because I think, when everyone has time, I'll treat you to a meal."

With Su Dong's status today, it is quite obvious to say such words as a gesture of goodwill. Kahn and others naturally felt it, and immediately agreed with a smile, especially Kahn.

The old captain directly patted his chest and said that there was no reason for Su Dong to treat him, he wanted to.

In this kind of back and forth conversation, the distance between each other has also been shortened virtually.

Although it is only the beginning, a good start is half the battle.

……

"Su, I've already arranged the wardrobe and room for you. Have you chosen your jersey number yet?" Kahn asked with concern.

Everyone also felt very concerned, especially Podolski.

He is now wearing the NO.11 jersey, which is also a very good number.

"This is exactly what I am very curious about." Su Dong frowned and asked, "Just now Hoeness showed me our team's jersey number this season, and I found out, why is there no number nine?"

This is what he saw just now, but he hadn't had time to ask.

Kahn and the others laughed, and immediately told Su Dong the reason for this.

In fact, not only this season, but also last season.

There is a long story here, and there is also a so-called Bayern No. [-] curse that was hyped up by the outside media.

When Su Dong had time, Kahn and the others were also happy to explain the history of Bayern for him, so they sat down in the office and chatted.

If you want to talk about the history of Bayern No. [-], it must have a long history. After all, this is a very classic jersey number for all football teams in the world, a little farther away, such as Gerd Müller and Dieter Hoeness.

Dieter Hoeness is the general manager of Hertha Berlin. Now Bayern is the younger brother of Hoeness. Both brothers played for Bayern back then, but the interesting thing is that Uli Hoeness just left, and his younger brother Dieter Hoeness came.

Among them, Hoeness Jr. took over the mantle of Gerd Muller's No. [-] jersey.

And Hoeness Jr. did not disappoint this classic jersey, leaving his own page in Bayern's history.

But after Hoeness Jr., Bayern's No. 80 jersey did not perform well for ten years. At the end of the [-]s, Bayern introduced Wichmann from Schalke [-]. Although the goals were not small, they were not convincing. They left the team after only two seasons.

Entering the 90s, Labbadia was another Bayern No. 82, scoring 28 goals in [-] games in three seasons, which was absolutely unqualified for Bayern Munich, so he also left.

In 27, World Footballer Papin took over Bayern's No. [-] jersey, but in the following two seasons, he only scored three goals in [-] games. The aging Papin's career at Bayern can only be regarded as a failure.

After that, the No. [-] jersey was vacant for several years until the next owner, Brazilian striker Elber.

Looking back from the current point of view, Elber must have been successful. He has made great contributions to Bayern, but in fact, for a long time, due to injuries and other aspects, Elber's performance has never been outstanding. His goals have always been around [-] goals.

It was not until his last season at Bayern that he scored 21 goals and won the Bundesliga Golden Boot. Unfortunately, he had to share it with Bochum veteran Thomas Christiansen.

After his peak, Elber also moved to Lyon.

After Elber, Bayern's most recent No. [-] is the Asian player Hashmian. He scored [-] league goals in Bochum and was introduced by Bayern. However, in Bayern, he had zero goals in nine games, and Hashmian never regained his state in Bochum.

When Ma Kai joined Bayern, he chose the No. [-] instead of the No. [-] favored by the center forward.

……

"This is the case, so I suggest that you should consider other jersey numbers. After all, we still have a lot of vacancies. You can even negotiate with your teammates, but it is best not to choose No. [-]." Kahn persuaded.

Everyone also looked at Su Dong one after another, paying attention to his expression.

Su Dong couldn't tell that these people still had some intentions to test the school.

It is said that Bayern specializes in rebellious stars, and it is not easy to convince these teammates.

The Germans are still very proud in their bones!

"Frankly speaking, I was still a little hesitant to choose No. [-]..." When Su Dong said this, he paused on purpose.

Sure enough, he sensed disappointment, even contempt, in the eyes of many teammates.

But he quickly changed the subject, "However, I like to do challenging things. I didn't know it before, but now I know it. I think it will be a great motivation for me."

"You mean..." Kahn was quite surprised.

"Don't say that I don't believe that there is a so-called curse in this world. Even if there is, I believe that I can smash it with my own hands. Since this jersey has been dusted for so many years after Gerd Müller and Dieter Hoeness, let me try it and make it shine again!"

At the end of Su Dong's speech, the confident look on his face infected everyone present with his confidence.

This is the double football player for two consecutive years!

He came to the Bundesliga not to prove his strength, but to conquer the Bundesliga fans and all the players!

Su Dong at this moment made no secret of his ambition.

I come, I see, I conquer!
…………

…………

After making an appointment with the players to eat together, Kahn and the others dispersed separately.

Hoeness was amazed by Su Dong's performance. Unexpectedly, at a young age, he seemed very mature in dealing with the relationship with Kahn and other players, which also confirmed the previous statement from the outside world.

Su Dong has never been a thorn in the side, but he is not easy to mess with either.

"At present, I have arranged for people to go to Croatia to talk to Dinamo Zagreb, hoping that they can release Luka Modric during the winter break, but there is a problem that he played for Dinamo Zagreb. He played in the Champions League, even though it was only a peripheral qualifier."

In other words, after the introduction of Modric, like Su Dong, he will not be able to play the second half of the Champions League.

However, this is not something Su Dong should have a headache about.

Whether it's Modric, Van der Vaart, or even Sneijder, Su Dong doesn't mind who his teammates are anyway.

Because no matter who it is, they all come to play around Su Dong, and they all come to pass the ball for Su Dong.

So, is there a difference?

"I heard that Mendes recommended three players to you?" Su Dong asked with a smile.

Hoeness nodded, "He knows what we need."

"Who is there?"

"Porto's right winger Quaresma and Benfica's central defender Pepe are all old acquaintances of yours."

Su Dong nodded. These two are indeed old acquaintances, but they are not cheap either.

"There is also a young player from Brazil who plays left back. His name is Marcelo. I heard that Real Madrid has always wanted to introduce him, but Mendes wants to transfer him to Bayern. The price is not expensive. We have seen his performance in Brazil and he is very good. We have decided to sign him." Hoeness introduced.

Su Dong knew it well. He knew that Bayern signed Marcelo more or less because of Su Dong's face.

Sometimes, transfers are like this. Mendes is Su Dong's agent. Bayern gives him some sweetness and signs the players he recommends, which is also a way to improve their relationship.

But the other two players are not cheap.

Just as Su Dong was thinking, Hoeness suddenly said another sentence.

"We are still thinking about signing Pepe."

Su Dong was a little surprised.
