million children and adults to play the game.

sport. According to the government, 20000 training centers are planned and 70000 new soccer fields will be built

during his youth. Xi wants China to play a major role in Asia and maybe even win the World Cup one day. Recently,
Chinese billionaires have started to invest in Chinas Super League, luring top European players to the country.
Guangzhou Evergrande, one of Chinas top teams, has paid 45 million dollars for Athletico Madrid top star Jackson
Martinez.
But before China reaches its goal it must clean up its own house. Corruption charges loom over the league. In 2013
33 players were banned from competition after they had been accused of match-fixing.
