I was reading yesterday that the President is a huge football fan, and wants to build the league, somewhat of in hope of building national talent and lodging a bid for the world cup. Also, probably just for his own enjoyment as he loves football. 

Here he is at the football with his pals

Sky Sources: Unnamed Chinese club willing to pay 38m for West Ham's Dimitri Payet.

Can these unnamed Chinese clubs not buy Juan Cuadrado off us for more than the pittance that Juve are otherwise going to?  

[Lineker]

Jelavic is off to China now, not Payet. 

[DavidMarrio]

I can see how they got the two mixed up...

[Rich]

In Mandarin they look very similar
