Getafe football club bought by Dubai-based group
Spain's Getafe football club has been bought by the Royal Emirates Group.
The group - chaired by a member of Dubai's ruling Al-Maktoum family - bought
the La Liga club for
"between 70 and 90m euros" (£79m, $131m), it said.
The purchase "will push Getafe to the highest level in domestic and European
competition", club president Angel Torres said.
The Madrid-based club is the third in Spain's top flight to be bought by
Gulf-based buyers.
The other two are
Malaga, bought by Qatari billionaire Sheikh Abdullah bin
Nasser Al-Thani, and
Racing Santander, now owned by Dubai-based Indian tycoon
Ahsan Ali Syed.
Aiming high
As part of the deal, Getafe will now add the tag line "Team Dubai" to its crest.
"For the coming year, we are definitely going to secure a position in the top
six," Royal Emirates managing director Kaiser Rafiq said.
"Our vision is to now beat Real Madrid," the group also said.
Getafe finished sixth last season, but is struggling this year.
The team currently lies 14th in the table with 37 points. Local rivals Real
Madrid are second with 77 points.
The club, in Madrid's suburbs, attract the lowest attendances in La Liga.
Real Madrid are at the top of the league table of the world's 20 richest
football clubs for the sixth straight year, according to an annual study by the
accountants Deloitte, which was published earlier this year.
A separate report from Sporting Intelligence has said that Barcelona and Real
Madrid have the highest paid players in world sport. They are on more than $7m (
£4.3m) a year, on average.
Foreign ownership in football is a growing trend. In England, nine out of 20
teams in the Premier League are already foreign owned, and US businessman Stan
Kroenke has recently made a bid for Arsenal.
