SHANGHAI/BENGALURU (Reuters) - Southampton were set to become the latest English Premier League team to get Chinese investment, with stadium builder Lander Sports Development <000558.SZ> saying on Thursday it was taking a stake in the club.
Lander, whose interest in Southampton was rumoured last year, said in a stock exchange statement that it had struck a deal with Saints' owner Katharina Liebherr to buy into the soccer club's holding company, without disclosing any terms.
