#4 The Chinese league is mired in avarice and corruption
Whilst the flaunting of fat pay cheques has worked tremendously in their favour, the Chinese League is actually a cesspool - rampant with corruption, marred by match-fixing allegations and managed by megalomaniacs whose penchant lies in only assembling foreign players to add more and more glamour to the team. Execution of a particular brand of football or inculcating valuable footballing ethics is still oblivious to the league.
With some recent clamp-downs on the league ending with a barrage of players and officials being banned from the game or even jailed, Chinese football is also grappling with such deceit and duplicity apart from just the poor quality of football exercised.
A player like Carrasco needs an environment that's conducive to his growth as a footballer, and a beleaguered China clearly can't provide that at the moment.
