If China can do that to Chelski , what else can they do to other clubs .Good money if you can get it!

No chance ! 50 mill easy !!Give us £40million for Jordan Turnbull
Well, Chinese industry is booming, commerce is excellent, the rich are stinkingly rich and the poor sods in the overcrowded towers are sleeping 5 to a room.
Serious money to be pocketed in Chinese Football, I can see a mass exodus of top-tier talent to Chinese shores within a year or so - it's inevitable. £750 000 a week? I mean c'mon, that's downright obscene money. I remember choking on my Tango when I heard Dion Dublin wanted £20k a week off us, back in the day...
Dunno, he's let himself go a bit. ;-)John Barnes 10k a week at Liverpool seemed massive at the time how much would they pay him now
There was somebody I heard talking about this and certain members of the Chinese government are not impressed by this as the original idea was to improve the national team not fill the league with mercenaries, in rugby they are trying to build it gradually and all based on the national team.
I bet Beckham is pig sick as they would have paid him a fortune.

I know what you mean though, football always throws us these wage-related milestones, but they never fail to shock the supporters/working class.
A player like Barnes, with his status/marketability and clear talent would easily be raking in about £250 000p/w these days.
Yep, not exactly fulfilling their communistic values is it?
Becks was on £400k a week at LA wasn't he? That was over a decade ago too, if my memory serves correctly. Still, probably not enough for him, bless him.
Where is all the money coming from?
