Having the majority of the voting rights gives Rastar options on the table for selling equity in the near future to partners in China."

　　"It is too early to say whether or not Chinese investment in European soccer will be a good thing or not," said Simon Chadwick, a professor of Sports Enterprise at the University of Salford in Manchester. "At one level, Chinese money may enable clubs to compete more effectively, but China's relative lack of experience in soccer club management may potentially be an obstacle to success."
　　“现在还太早，不能说中国对欧洲足球的投资是好是坏，”索尔福德大学体育事业部教授Simon Chadwick说，“从一定层面上来讲，中国的资金也许能使球队竞争力更强，但是中国对足球俱乐部相关管理经验的匮乏可能会成为成功的障碍。”
