Experiences outside Europe
Players like David Beckham, Frank Lampard, Alessandro Del Piero, Dimitar Berbatov are first-hand examples of moving to a different country to try a different brand of football and culture.
This notion has been defied by the Chinese Super League, as young prospects like Oscar, Yannick Carrasco, Axel Witsel chose to join the CSL instead of staying in Europe. Yet, quite a few have managed to compete for a place in the national team which speaks volumes of the competitiveness.
It is a surprising thing to see from players who had a bright a future in Europe. However, they have become an integral part of the growth of the game in the country, and are paving the way for more players.
Europe is facing a lot of competition from the Chinese Super League, and it will an interesting thing to see how they tackle this prospect.
