April 25, 2011

Royal Emirates Group have completed their purchase of Primera Division side Getafe.

The deal was confirmed by the Dubai-based group in an open letter by their managing director Dr Kaiser Rafiq on the club's website.

There had been speculation last week that the club would be renamed 'Team Dubai' as part of the takeover deal, but both parties confirmed that their identity will remain unchanged.
