In August, Barca will pay a visit to China and have a friendly match with Beijing Guo’an. Next year, Chelsea will also start their visit to China in July. They say that they have paid close attention to China’ football development. Also they want to make their efforts to help China’s football. The football market in China is mature and is full of potential. That’s why so many foreign football teams are attracted to come to China to make some investment. Actually, those football clubs have made a lot of money through participating the activities held by the hosts or the friendly matches with Chinese football teams. In 2005, Real Madrid came to China and stayed just four days. However, they earned about 6,000,000 Euros. Those fans realized their dream to make a close contact with those famous football stars, but they paid a lot for this. The FIFA president Blatter condemned those football teams and said that they came to Asia just to earn money and those fans were the victims. They did not make any efforts for the football development. Any comments? Glad to hear your voice.

And, not to be overlooked is the chance of some of the local players to be seen and / or noticed by the "big boys".
