Chinese billionaire Wang Jianlin's buying spree is rolling-on.
His Wanda Group is reportedly within days of buying global sports marketing firm Infront from its parent company Bridgepoint.
Infront contracts the public relations for numerous international sports events.
The company is currently directed by Philippe Blatter, the nephew of FIFA boss Sepp Blatter.
The deal would give Wanda the exclusive rights to broadcast Italy's Serie A, which now is the property of Infront.
Wang Jianlin purchased a 20-percent stake in Spanish La Liga champions Atletico Madrid earlier this month.
