The two Dortmund executives made it very clear that the club had no intention or plan to sell Wang Shuo.
"Our team is in an excellent position right now, and next season, we're very likely to return to the Champions League."
"This will be a crucial opportunity for us at Dortmund!"
Watzke further clarified that Dortmund's Chairman Laubal had personally gotten involved in Wang Shuo's contract renewal.
"We will do whatever it takes to keep him at Dortmund!"
"No team will take him from Westfalen Stadium!"
The day after the match at Allianz Arena, several German media outlets, including Ruhr News, saw Wang Shuo's agent, Thomas Essien, at Westfalen Stadium. Dortmund fans, who had made a special trip to watch the team practice, also witnessed his arrival.
...
When Thomas Essien arrived at the Dortmund offices again, the receptionist recognized him from a distance.
She definitely remembered Wang Shuo's agent.
More importantly, her superiors had notified her well in advance.
