Chapter 39 Transfer Rumors
After Zhang Chaoqiang took the lead in scoring, Brugge's counterattack actually played decently.

Lyon's defense was a little confused for a while, but fortunately there was no danger.

Vasquez, the core midfielder of Bruges, was born in La Masia's youth training. It was his poor defensive choice just now that Zhang Chaoqiang easily got the chance to score.

This may be the reason why he was born in Barcelona but no Spanish team liked him.

But in terms of organizing the offense, he seems to be a little bit standard.

Under the leadership of Vasquez, Brugge stabilized the situation, did not allow Lyon to easily find opportunities, and occasionally played some good counterattacks.

It wasn't until the 70th minute of the second half that Lyon captain Gonalons scored a goal from a long distance, and the suspense of the game dropped greatly.

However, Brugge still found a chance to win back a city in the 88th minute, but it has nothing to do with the overall situation.

In the end, Lyon defeated Bruges 2:1 at home, won two consecutive victories in the Europa League group stage, and temporarily ranked first in the group.

In another match in this group at the same time, Torino beat Copenhagen 1-0 at home, ranking second with one win and one tie with four points.

Among the other European games in the middle of the week, the most concerned one is undoubtedly Paris vs. Barcelona.

The current situation in Paris is not good. Ibrahimovic, Lavezzi, and Thiago Silva are all recovering from injuries. French fans worry that they will not be able to withstand Barcelona's attack.

I didn't expect Paris to play quite well. They actually successfully defeated Barcelona 3:2 at home and temporarily rose to the first place in the group.

But MSN has not formally fit is also a major reason.

Suarez was suspended for four months worldwide for biting a man in the World Cup and is currently unable to represent Barcelona.

But it's coming soon.

People who bite in June, now it is October, and Barcelona's new striker combination is about to officially debut.

We'll just have to wait to see if they can really work.

Last season, Real Madrid spent a lot of money to introduce Gareth Bale to form the BBC combination, and finally won the Champions League.

Now that Barcelona spends sky-high prices to introduce Suarez to create MSN, they naturally want to confront the BBC.

Monaco, another team representing Ligue 0 in the UEFA Champions League, also played well. They drew 0:[-] with Zenit St. Petersburg in this round. They also scored four points with one win and one tie in two rounds. The qualifying situation is very good.

But the other teams in the Europa League group stage are not so good.

Both Saint-Etienne and Lille have lost two consecutive rounds, and the situation is a bit bad.

Guingamp, on the other hand, scored three points in one win and one loss, barely passable.

After the end of the European competition in midweek, Zhang Chaoqiang continued to train with the team, and then got a little natural attribute improvement.

[You have strengthened your body through personal training, strength +1]

Strength increased from 64 to 65.

At the same time, the European media spread rumors about Zhang Chaoqiang's transfer.

Italy's "Gazzetta dello Sport" released news that due to the poor start record, Inter Milan may dismiss the employer coach Mazzari before the winter break, and then strengthen during the winter transfer period in order to strive for the Champions League qualification next season.

The main candidate for Inter Milan's reinforcement is the Chinese winger Zhang Chaoqiang, who is currently rapidly rising in Lyon.

The report said that there is still a nose and an eye.

Since joining Inter Milan last season, Mauro Icardi has grown rapidly and is expected to become a new generation of striker for the Nerazzurri.

But the scoring efficiency of the Argentine center has been unstable, the main reason is that they do not receive enough fire support.

Zhang Chaoqiang has risen to fame in Ligue [-]. He has the title of the fastest horse in Asia and has a tacit cooperation with Lyon center Lacazette. Inter Milan believes that the introduction of him can help Icardi grow into a stable and productive shooter as soon as possible.

The report also clarified the transfer fee, saying that Inter Milan is preparing to offer Lyon 1000 million euros during the winter break.

The first half of this report is a bit reliable, and the later part of the quotation of 1000 million reveals the truth.

Zhang Chaoqiang is only 19 years old and is in a period of rapid growth. The German transfer market is officially worth 400 million yuan, and there is a bonus of Chinese nationality. This summer, he just renewed his contract for four years. Isn't Inter Milan's offer of 1000 million yuan a bully?
The French media soon responded. The "Paris Journal" claimed that Paris Saint-Germain was preparing to introduce Lyon's Zhang Chaoqiang during the winter break due to too many striker injuries, and offered more than 2000 million euros.

Moreover, after the transfer, Zhang Chaoqiang's salary has at least doubled, and his annual salary is between 200 million and 400 million euros.

The credibility of the "Paris Journal" is not very high, but RMC Sports followed up the report with a certain degree of integrity, so it is not groundless.

Soon Zhang Chaoqiang got the news from his agent Jacques Frelo that Inter Milan was completely a scandal. It may be a gimmick made by Inter Milan's Indonesian owner Eric Tohir to attract the attention of fans.

But Greater Paris is indeed interested and has asked him if he would like to join during the winter break.

"From the perspective of the player's personal development, I suggest you stay in Lyon. Now the Lyon youth army has just played to a certain extent. Staying there is very beneficial to your development."

"But if you really want to play in Paris, I can also apply to Lyon for you."

"But you just renewed your contract in the summer, and you have full potential. 2000 million will definitely not satisfy the appetite of that old fox in Aulas..."

Jacques Frello was still conscientious, and Zhang Chaoqiang didn't want to change jobs because of a little transfer commission.

But he is not completely against it, after all, each player's pursuit is different.

In Lyon, 400 million euros is the maximum salary in the team.

But in Greater Paris, 400 million euros is just an ordinary salary, and you can get it as soon as you join.

"Don't worry, Jacques, I'm not the kind of player who cares about money..."

After a brief discussion between the two, the agent gave a suggestion.

Even if you don't plan to join Paris, there is no need to publicly refuse.

On the court, he is an opponent today, and may be a teammate tomorrow. The situation may change one day in the future, and it is not certain that he will go to Paris to play football one day.

What's more, transfer hype is also a way to enhance the player's reputation.

After the away game against Paris a few days ago, Lyon's "Progress" wrote that Zhang Chaoqiang was worthy of being shortlisted for this year's European Golden Boy Award.

But after the article was published, apart from the Lyon fans who expressed their approval, there were not many other media who recognized it.

The main reason is that Zhang Chaoqiang only started to emerge in March this year, and his reputation is worse than other talented players.

Now through some transfer hype, maybe he can be shortlisted.

In any case, being shortlisted for the Golden Boy Award is also a player qualification.

On October 10th, in the ninth round of Ligue 5, Lyon ushered in their key rival Lille at home.

Fournier established Lyon's goal for this season as early as the beginning of the season, entering the top three in Ligue [-].

In today's Ligue [-], Paris will occupy a top three place no matter what, so the remaining teams only have two places to compete for.

For Lyon, the real competitor is not Paris, but Monaco, Bordeaux, Lille, Marseille and other teams.

Lyon currently ranks fourth in Ligue [-], while Lille ranks third with a one-point lead.

So this is a key battle. If Lyon wins at home, they will jump directly into the top three.

Zhang Chaoqiang originally thought that this would be a tough battle, because in recent years Lille's style has always focused on defense and focused on defensive counterattacks.

The data reflect it very clearly. In the first eight rounds of Ligue [-], Lille only conceded two goals in total.

But who knows that winning the game is very easy.

Lacazette broke out and scored three goals with five shots and four shots on goal. He directly put on a hat and helped Lyon easily win 3:0.

Even Zhang Chaoqiang followed suit with an assist.

It was really good. The frontcourt received the ball and passed it back to Lacazette in front of the penalty area. The latter hit the ball directly, and then Zhang Chaoqiang got an assist.

For Zhang Chaoqiang, the biggest gain in this game is stealing attributes.
