China's top real estate developer Wanda group announced an investment of 45 million euros ($52 million) for a 20 percent of stake in the Spanish football Club Atletico Madrid, marking the first time that a Chinese company has invested in a top flight European football club.

Wang Jianlin, chairman of the Dalian-based property giant, said that the deal is expected to give more golden opportunities to young Chinese football players and provide them with more exposure to the worlds top tier football clubs. He also said that it can help promote China's football industry.

"I wouldn't say it is impossible for Wanda to acquire another football club in Europe if this partnership goes well," Wang said. "We want to train more homegrown football players and narrow the gap between China and the rest of the world."

Atletico Madrid is one of the world's leading football clubs. It has won La Liga, the first division of the Spanish football league, on ten occasions, most recently in 2013 and 2014. The team a finalist in the UEFA champions League during the same season(s).
