Somehow I had missed that we paid an estimated €9 million for Yuning Zhang.

So we have paid €9 million (our sixth biggest signing fee) for a player who Transfer Markt rate at £595K. We sign him on a three year deal, we then loan him out for two of those three years.  I understand that he cannot get a work permit to play in the UK and is seen as a player for the future, but how is he a player for the future, for us anyway? If he blossoms into an amazing player he only has to wait a year and he can leave on a free. If he does not come good, we have spent €9 millionon a player currently not even rated at 600k. Anyone make any sense of that for me

The South China Post have had a good go mind:
