ADUG Hints at £135 million Cristiano Ronaldo Capture from Man United

Since Abu Dabi United Group (ADUG) took over Manchester City yesterday morning, they have stunned the football world by capturing long-term Chelsea target Robinho from Real Madrid.

The deal was reported to be in the region of £33M and that smashed the British record transfer fee.

Now the wealthy group, with the financial power believed to be more than five times stronger than Roman Abramovic, has set their sights on another superstar.

That's right, fellas. They are planning a £135M swoop for Cristiano Ronaldo from their archrivals Manchester United.

Al Fahim (pictured above) is not stopping here, though. He claims to be planning to bring 18 new players to the club.

He said that if Ronaldo wants to join the biggest club in the world, we will find out in January if he is serious.

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

It is also reported City will look to target 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.

It seems like these fellas want immediate success, but this is bordering insanity.

What has happened to the league? Man United started it, Chelsea took it further, and Manchester City are peaking it!

Yeah, I know there already is a lot of money in the league. But let's at least keep it at a realistic level. This is crazy! Ronaldo isn't worth even half that amount. No player is.

Chelsea won't be the most hated club in the country for much longer, I predict!
