Oscar became the seventh most expensive footballer of all time, and one of the highest paid players in the world, when he joined Chinese Super League side Shanghai SIPG from Chelsea in December 2016 for £60 million.
Since then, China has implemented a strict wage cap, several clubs have collapsed, and all of the league's big-name players have departed... Well, all but one.
In this video, HITC Sevens takes a look at why - after more than seven years - former Brazilian international Oscar is the last superstar left in China, how we should assess his controversial career, and what it tells us about current players heading to free-spending clubs in Saudi Arabia.
