Chinese Realty Firm Buys French Football Team

Ligue 2 side Sochaux have been formally acquired by Chinese real estate group Nenking, who had been managing the club already since the end of last season, in place of Ledus. The announcement came after a club general assembly meeting organised over the phone. Nenking’s purchase of the club since last year has long expected to be a mere formality, but the acquisition was slowed by the suspension of Tech Pro Technology on the Hong Kong stock exchange.
