'Nothing wrong with players seeking more money in China' - Luis Enrique labels criticism of CSL moves strange

The 46-year-old questioned what he perceives as double standards in evaluating the morals of departed stars, insisting they have done no wrong

Barcelona coach Luis Enrique said it is fantastic that players can move to China and earn more money, labeling criticism of their motives "strange".

The lure of the CSL has proved too strong recently, with Oscar and Carlos Tevez joining the growing list of stars in the Chinese Super League.

Tevez moved to Shanghai Shenhua in a deal reportedly making him the world's highest-paid player, while Oscar completed a £60 million switch to Shanghai SIPG from Premier League leaders Chelsea.
