It was a worrying sight as China’s Shanghai Shenhua football club’s home stadium caught fire early on Tuesday. Luckily however, there were no casualties and the blaze was put out by mid-morning, our correspondents gathered.

The Shanghai city government said on its official blog that the cause of the blaze at the Hongkou Football Stadium was unknown and still being investigated.

The inferno had luckily not affected the stands or the pitch according to the State news agency Xinhua.

It will be recalled that the Chinese Super League team has spent heavily to sign high-profile players in recent months.

Only last December, Carlos Tevez signed a two-year deal for a reported 84 million euros ($91.22 million) while Senegalese striker Demba Ba, Nigerian forward Obafemi Martins and Colombian midfielder Fredy Guarin are all also on the club’s payroll.

Gus Poyet was appointed as manager last year but the club could only finish fourth last season, 16 points behind champions Guangzhou Evergrande.
