La Liga and China's Super League on Friday signed an accord to "make Chinese football grow throughout the world." "We are going to learn from La Liga as much about developing young players as about promoting our brand," Dong Zheng, the general secretary of the Chinese league told a press conference in Madrid.
"I hope that with the help of La Liga, the Chinese Super League can become a premier league at the Asian and even the World level," said Zheng. The agreement is for four years and covers the sport as well as organisation and financial controls. Chinese professional football, said Javier Tebas, the Liga president, "is looking to organise as we do in the biggest leagues in the world."
