Not sure about that. The higher profile football players go the more accessible it will become for other players of similair level and slightly above. Decade ago it were no name players, then it became well known players at tail end of career. Now it's younger players that still have a future in Europe(Oscar, Graziano Pele, Carrasco)

Anybody who's serious about football won't go to China. Both oscar and carasco lost motivation to compete with the best and went for the money. Besides China imposed 100% tax on foreign player transfer fees now. So now they can't just buy everyone.

With a contract until 2020?? That is not impressive at all, then.

>Wang Jianlin owns the Chinese team he was sold to. He's a stakeholder in Atletico.

>China has 100% tax on foreign players. So the Chinese club paid 60m.

>They also took Gaitan off their hands for 15m

>Carasco is earning 8.8m. He took the easy way out.

Sounds like shady business making. Wanda just wants to pump money into Atletico to match FFP criterias and move some cash stacks around. Let's watch Gaitan and Carrasco leave China ASAP again.

Sounds like FFP looholing, Wanda just wants to pump money into Atletico. I bet Gaitan and Carrasco will leave China ASAP again, it's all just about moving cash around.

Doesn't sound plausible. Gaitan is 30 he's cashing out. Carasco has clashed with Simeone. Could just be Atletico were trying to offload them and Jianlin used his influence in Atletico to get them for cheap.

Gaitan might stay, Carrasco will probably leave again. Heard Juve is interested.

Carasco could have said no to China he's not a slave.

Well even in that case atleast we won't be the only top club stupid enough to buy from China. :lol:

Apparently he's only going to China for a few months and will move to Juventus in the summer.

Oh, already mentioned.
