Dr. Sulaiman Al-Fahim and Abu Dhabi United Group, the new owners of Manchester City and the people responsible for signing Robinho for a record breaking £32.5million, might be in over their heads. Claiming they will place a bid for Cristiano Ronaldo in January
Al-Fahim told Arabian Business magazine that Manchester City will be the biggest club in the world “Ronaldo has said he wants to play for the biggest club in the world, so we will see in January if he is serious,”
“Real Madrid were estimating his value at $160 million but for a player like that, to actually get him, will cost a lot more, I would think $240 million (£134.3m).
“But why not? We are going to be the biggest club in the world, bigger than both Real Madrid and Manchester United.”
Sorry to burst your bubble Mr. Al-Fahim It takes more than money to become the biggest club in the world! Cristiano would never, not in a million years, wear a Manchester City shirt. Man City got lucky with Robinho and it still makes me sick to imagine him in a baby blue le coq shirt. If Cristiano leaves United, he would only leave for a Real Madrid or AC Milan. Teams with prestige and history.
