No sooner had Shanghai SIPG agreed to pay Chelsea £58million for Oscar than Carlos Tevez was waving farewell to his beloved Boca Juniors on Sunday and heading for the Far East to play for Shanghai Shenhua next season.
Such is the rapid flow towards the ridiculously rich Chinese Super League these days.
Oscar, Chinese football's most expensive signing to date, will earn £400,000-a-week in Shanghai.
Tevez has agreed an even bigger deal worth £615,000-a-week, elevating him above Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo as the world's highest-paid player.
