The only stories I can find about Sala and a Chinese team are from February 2018 which say that he rejected €3.5m a year to join Beijing Renhe. I wonder if this is the story in question and there has been some confusion.
I started that thread, and it wasn't about that article, although the one posted this morning has since been taken down, so they may have made a mistake.
