Man City Gone Wild

by jAz • 2 Sep 2008, 19:11 • Journals
The new owner of Manchester City, Dr Sulaiman Al-Fahim, has intimated that Abu Dhabi United Group for Development and Investment (ADUG) could back a £135million bid for Manchester United winger Cristiano Ronaldo in January.

"Ronaldo has said he wants to play for the biggest club in the world, so we will see in January if he is serious," Al-Fahim said in The Guardian.

"Real Madrid were estimating his value at $160million (£90m) but for a player like that, to actually get him, will cost a lot more; I would think $240million (£135m). But why not? We are going to be the biggest club in the world, bigger than both Real Madrid and Manchester United."

It is also reported City will look to target the likes of Liverpool striker Fernando Torres and Arsenal midfielder Cesc Fabregas as the club aim to build a side capable of achieving success in Europe's most prestigious competition.

wow just read it. in other parts of the world people are starving and here they give so much money for one person, just depressing where it's all going to end

EDIT: "It is rumoured that ADUG are worth anywhere in between £600billion and £800billion"

FC Utrecht will sign him and then he will play in our 2nd squad and eventually end up at Cambuur, just my guess
