PRAGUE (Reuters) - Fresh off a surprise quarter-final run in the Europa League and flush with cash from their Chinese owner, Slavia Prague are confident they can do what few clubs from the region have done before - play regularly in the Champions League group stage.

The oldest Czech soccer club – established in 1892 and now majority-owned by Chinese construction company Sinobo -- want to build on their showing this season by diving into the transfer market both at home and abroad to compete with teams across Europe.
