Ganso the latest Brazilian on Chinese radar

Xinhua, January 10, 2016 Adjust font size:

Paulo Henrique Ganso could be the latest Brazil international to move to China, according to media reports on Saturday.

Second-tier club Hebei China Fortune has offered the midfielder a monthly salary that is significantly higher than the 75,000 US dollars he currently earns with Sao Paulo, according to the Uol news portal.

The 26-year-old's contract with the Brazilian outfit expires in September 2017.

Should Ganso accept the offer he would join a growing list of Brazilians to be wooed by cash-flush Chinese clubs.

Among current and former Brazil internationals to move to the Asian nation in recent months are Diego Tardelli (Shandong Luneng), Robinho (Guangzhou Evergrande), Paulinho (Guangzhou Evergrande), Ricardo Goulart (Guangzhou Evergrande), Jadson (Tianjin Songjiang), Luis Fabiano (Tianjin Songjiang) and Renato Augusto (Beijing Guoan).
