Brazilian winger Givanildo Vieira de Sousa, popularly known as Hulk has now completed a big-money move to China. He became the most expensive signing in Asian football with a £46.1m move to Shanghai SIPG from Zenit St Petersburg.
The 29-year-old winger has scored 21 goals for Zenit last season and would be a tremendous coup for the Chinese league.
It seems that the Chinese Football Association is fully committed to their plan of becoming a “world football superpower” by 2050. They announced their plans of a footballing revolution back in March and all of these big money signings are massive statements of their intent.
