Jiangsu's negotiations with Bell may mean that it is getting closer to the Italian league

By Michael Church

HONG KONG: Rumors about Gareth Bell's move into Jiangsu Sunning have become one of the most popular football events of the current summer transfer period, but even though the Welsh has signed a contract with the Chinese club this does not guarantee that he will appear soon in the Premier League.

According to information reported this week, Bill will sign a three-year contract with Jiangsu for a weekly amount of one million pounds (£ 1.24 million) after leaving Real after six years there, winning four titles in the Champions League and the Spanish league 2017.

But signing a contract with the Chinese team does not necessarily mean that the Welsh will appear on the field in his first match after the mid-season transfers on Wednesday.

Jiangsu will meet Guangzhou R & F Friday as part of a triple-title running between Guangzhou Evergrand, Shanghai Sepp and Beijing Joan.

For his part, Cosmin Olario, the coach of Jiangsu, hopes to finish the competition in fourth place, but Bill may not have to worry about the level of his team.

Sunning Electric, which acquired the Chinese club at the end of 2015, also holds a majority stake in the Italian giants Internazionale and it is still possible that a loan is transferred 18 times to Italian champions.

Australia and Australian Trent Sainsbury have moved to Inter in a similar way in 2017.

In contrast, the wing moved from Inter last year to Jiangsu. Defender Miranda became the latest addition to the Chinese team after leaving the Italian team.

As part of the cooperation between the two clubs, Bell's chances at San Siro seem great.
