Before the Olympics, Dong Fangzhuo left England early and boarded a flight from Europe to China, full of ambitions for the Olympics.
After the Olympics, Dong Fangzhuo left China early and boarded a flight from China to Europe to prepare for treatment on his legs.
The serious ankle injury forced him to contact Europe's top kinesiology doctors through his agent to prepare for surgery as soon as possible.
The operation was relatively successful, but the doctor told him that he would have to rest for at least four months from his ankle injury, and after recovery, his ankle would not be able to achieve its previous strength and strength.
In other words, although his football career is not over, he can only hang out in low-level leagues or return home sadly.
Dong Fangzhuo was lying on the bed in a very bad mood. He looked through the blessing messages on his phone and felt extremely sad.
Those were sent by friends, and many of them were sent by Manchester United coaches and teammates.
Ferguson: "Dong Hua, take good care of your injuries and try to get back into shape as soon as possible and return to the football field."
Cristiano Ronaldo: "It's really unexpected that a genius who was once as good as me on the training field would be treated like this by God. It's really regrettable. I wish you a speedy recovery and hope that we can meet again one day!"
Rooney: "Come on, Chinese boy! Once a Red Devil, always a Red Devil! No matter where you are, we will always pay attention to your news, come on! We look forward to your rebirth!"
Seeing this information, Dong Fangzhuo shed tears.
He has never cried since he was injured.
Pain never made him flinch, and injuries never frightened him. But now, seeing his friends' blessings, he burst into tears.
Thank you for your blessings. It felt great to play with you.
But, can I still find my former self?
Even if I come back from injury, it will be impossible for me to stay in Europe. Which European club would want a young man who is seriously injured?
Until now, no European club wants to take me in, and among domestic clubs, only Dalian Shide, a team that develops its own team, is ready to take me in.
Five years ago, I left Dalian in great glory and wanted to make a career in European football.
But now, I have no choice but to return to China. Even if I return to Dalian, I may not be able to secure my main position.
Alas, let’s recover from the leg injury first.
Brothers of Manchester United, maybe we will never see each other on the field again in the years to come...
Dong Fangzhuo was lying on the hospital bed and was feeling sad. Suddenly there was a knock on the door. He hurriedly wiped his tears so that no one else could see him.
When he saw the person coming, he was suddenly surprised and happy.
"Brother Tie, Brother Jiayi, Xiaohai?"
The people who walked into the room were Dong Fangzhuo's national team teammates Li Tie, Shao Jiayi and Yu Hai.
Dong Fangzhuo wanted to sit up, but Yu Hai quickly pressed him gently: "Lie down and rest. Why are you so polite to us?"
"Why are you here?" Dong Fangzhuo met his old acquaintance in a foreign land and forgot the sadness just now for a moment.
"The team is about to start training and we are back early." Shao Jiayi explained.
Dong Fangzhuo was stunned: "The Chinese national team came to Europe for training?"
"We're talking about Cottbus."
"Oh, oh, I made a mistake," Dong Fangzhuo finally realized, "I thought you were coming to Europe for training on behalf of the national team."
Li Tie sighed: "You, you are lying in bed recovering from your injuries, and you are still thinking about the national team. You, you, alas..."
Yu Hai patted Dong Fangzhuo on the shoulder: "Recuperate well and don't think so much. But luckily you came to France for treatment this time. France and Germany are close neighbors, so it's convenient for us to come and see you."
Dong Fangzhuo looked at the three of them with envy on his face: "It's great that the three of you are playing football in Cottbus and you have your own people to take care of you. My European football trip is finally over."
Yu Hai quickly cheered him up: "Don't say that. After you recover from your injury, you may be able to join other European teams."
But Li Tie did not say this rashly. Already 31 years old, he is used to seeing geniuses in football fall. He does not want to give Dong Fangzhuo such vain expectations: "Xiao Dong, you should take good care of your injury. It will be good to return to China to play football in the future. Now the domestic football environment is getting increasingly better. Well, I have a bright future when I return to my country to play football. I won’t be able to play in Cottbus for a few more years. Then I will return to my country and hang out with you, haha.”
The four people were chatting in the ward, and the topic came to Yun Sheng's head.
Speaking of Yun Sheng, Dong Fangzhuo admired him very much: "Although I have never met coach Yun Sheng, I admire him very much. Not to mention me, even when I was at Manchester United last season, I often heard that the players Talking about his name. To be able to win the double championship in the first season of coaching, Coach Yun Sheng is really amazing! I really envy you to be able to play under him!"
Yu Hai nodded excitedly: "Yes, during the year of competition and training with him, I feel that my skills have improved by leaps and bounds. It is simply a rapid improvement."
Shao Jiayi said regretfully: "It's a pity that he still left Cottbus. This is really regrettable."
Li Tie suddenly asked: "Do you have any latest news about him now? For example, where will he go to coach?"
Shao Jiayi, who had the best relationship with Yun Sheng, shook his head: "I did call him a few times, but he was very busy on the phone. After chatting for a few words, he hung up, and I didn't hear him mention the next stop. destination."
Yu Hai is fascinated by him and confident: "With the level of coach Yunsheng, I would not be surprised even if he goes to Real Madrid to coach next season. His level is definitely the top in Europe!"
While several people were chatting, Dong Fangzhuo's cell phone suddenly rang. He took a look and saw that it was an unfamiliar number.
Shaojia and others stopped talking, waiting for Dong Fangzhuo to answer the phone.
But looking away, Shao Jia saw that Dong Fangzhuo's caller number looked familiar...
Dong Fangzhuo has indeed had a lot of phone calls recently. In addition to friends in the football circle, many media reporters have also frequently harassed him and want to interview him.
Now that I am in this state, how can I worry about being interviewed!
Some Chinese League One and Chinese League Two players also contacted Dong Fangzhuo and wanted to invite him to join.
Although Dalian and I have not signed a formal transfer contract, I have not been reduced to playing in the Second Division!
Dong Fangzhuo felt very bad when he saw the unfamiliar number.
"Hey, I'm Dong Fangzhuo, who are you?"
"Hello, I'm Yun Sheng."
"Yun... Yun Sheng? Coach Yun Sheng?"
Dong Fangzhuo was shocked!
Could it be that the person who called me was Cottbus’s double-championship coach Yun Sheng? !
Yu Hai next to him immediately recognized Yun Sheng's voice: "It's coach Yun Sheng!"
Only a calm voice came from the phone. This voice seemed to come from another world, making Dong Fangzhuo's mind go blank.
"I just want to ask you one question: Do you still want to stay and play in Europe?"
