    • New Manchester City owner Dr Sulaiman Al-Fahim intends to follow up his shock capture of Robinho by swooping for World Player of the Year Cristiano Ronaldo.

      Al-Fahim smashed the British transfer fee record after agreeing a last-gasp £32.5million fee with Real Madrid for the Brazilian moments before midnight yesterday.

      And now the spokesman for The Abu Dhabi United Group (ADUG) says he'll splash a staggering £120m on Ronaldo.

      “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.

      "Real Madrid were estimating his value at $160m but for a player like that, to actually get him, will cost a lot more, I would think $240m.

      "But why not? We are going to be the biggest club in the world, bigger than both Real Madrid and Manchester United.”

      Al Fahim has also revealed other names on his shopping list – Liverpool’s Fernando Torres and Arsenal’s Cesc Fabregas are also seen as potential targets.

    • I read this group estimated fortune to be around USD 1 trillion or 550B pounds.

      so what's a few millions? and with the oil price increasing, they are virtually untouchables.

      City has hit oil....

    • It is said that for every $1 the price of oil goes up... These Abu Dhabi fellows gain as much as $500 million...

    • they are just trying to flaunt the fact that they are rich. If i got a lot of money, i also can say i want to buy messi, kaka, ronaldo but in the end, i make sure none makes it here as i prefer to settle for promising youngsters.

      Players who have already reached their peak only have a few good years left in them, better to settle for young players.

    • to be the rishest club in the world is not difficult but to be bigger then ManU, Real, Milan, Barca and so on will takes a long while.. you might be able to buy in all the best players money can get you but to be a bigger club then them would probably takes you another 10 years..
