Hebei China Fortune is aiming to become the Barcelona of the Chinese Super League when it comes to youth development.

The big-spending club, based in Qinhuangdao, Hebei province, has launched a bold project which it hopes will become China's equivalent of Barca's famous La Masia academy, which has produced the likes of Lionel Messi, Xavi and Andres Iniesta.

In a joint venture with the Hebei Provincial Football Association, China Fortune hopes to provide soccer training to 30 elementary schools in 11 cities in the province over the next three years.
