FCUM 1 Posted January 26, 2007 Share Posted January 26, 2007 TRANSFER RUMOURS Real Madrid will offer £35m to Man Utd in the summer for winger Cristiano Ronaldo. (The Independent) Real Madrid striker Ruud van Nistelrooy has urged former team-mate Ronaldo to join him in Spain. (Various) I'd be surprised if Ronaldo didn't go if Real come in with a serious offer. Man Utd have have just announced a 50% increase in profits, up from £20 mill to £30 mill (although that's accounted for by £12 mill for nowt for Jon Obi Mikel). Sounds good on paper but not when set against the £62 mill pa interest to service the debt! Hmmm, need £62 mill to service the interest, £30 mill profits leaving a shortfall of £32 mill, Real offer £35 mill Fully expect the Man Utd propoganda machine to go into overdrive turning supporters against Ronaldo prior to a sale, just as they did with Beckham and RVN.
