Businessmen from China acquired shares of "Inter" club © EuroFootball.com

A group of investors from China has become the second largest shareholder of the Milan club. However, management will remain in the hands of the Moratti family.

The Italian team aims to increase its popularity in Asia and has already planned to build a new stadium by 2017 together with the Chinese Train Company.

Businessmen from Asia are taking stronger positions in European football. For example, the English Premier League club Queens Park Rangers in London is owned by Tony Fernandes, who leads the Malaysian airline Air Asia.
