Cristiano Ronaldo

[blue b4 the moon]

IF we're serious with this deal we need to get it over the line quickly and by that I mean in the next 24/48 hours.

I can't accept the rags can't afford it...similar with Messi he'll pay for himself.

Everyone involved including possibly Bernie will have slept on it so either nail the deals down or cut and run.

I actually think wages won’t be a big issue. To be seen

They shouldn’t be we’ve lost Aguero’s wages and I’m sure Kane wouldn’t have been on less than 300k a week had he arrived. Plus easily as marketable as Messi on the bullshit side.

Important side we need a goal scorer and he’s one of the best ever.

Something doesn't sit well with me. If Ronaldo is prepared to reduce his wage demands why has he not been offered to other teams. Utd would be the obvious team to finish his career with or a return to Madrid.

Maybe it’s the ballon d’or. It looks like this year’s is going to Messi again.

He won’t win it at Juventus, nor United. If he comes to city, he has a better chance.

Messi will be trying to win PSG’s first UCL. Ronaldo will be trying to win ours. Whoever does it will leave a legacy that will be argued for years in their favour

We wanted Messi, and were prepared to create the gap for him and deal with the costs, why wouldn’t we go out on a limb for Ronaldo?

My theory on how a transfer can happen. Juventus want a €25m fee. City don't want to pay. Enter Mendes. Bernardo goes to Juventus for a €60m fee, Ronaldo joins City for a €25m transfer free. Similar to Cancelo/Danilo swap deal, those numbers will be there to balance the books and in effect, Juventus would pay €35m next season (since they're short of cash right now) and City won't pay anything in cash.

It would be especially a very attractive offer to our ownership, no Messi but Ronaldo back would be huge for Prem

I think his first job is to convince Ronaldo to lower his salary to certain acceptable amount for us and him maybe then we can pay the €25M

Apparently he's ok with a big wage cut. Can't say for certain though. But it did surprise me, in a good way.

I think he knows his days of mega wages are behind him.

Finding it hard to believe that the fee is the issue. £20m when we were prepared to pay £130m for Kane

But possibly double the wages.

No goals this season. It’s a no from me.

This is Mendes not Charlie Kane, Mendes is one of the best agents in football at getting his players moves, Mendes will make this happen with some sort of crazy deal.
