It had happened before, yielded, by the Trabzonspor or CSKA Moscow, Mainz 05 and the Lens French, where formed in the inferior categories. It was linked with the Real Betis or Cádiz, but finally remained in the at all after the end of the market in Europe. It has not been related, for the moment, with a movement to Qatar.
