Al-Fahim will shoot for Blue Moon to get Ronaldo

THE billionaire businessman at the centre of the Manchester City takeover has suggested the club could be willing to make a world record £135m (€165m) bid for Cristiano Ronaldo.

The deadline-day signing of Chelsea target Robinho for a British record transfer fee has already gone some way to underlining the grand intentions of Sulaiman Al-Fahim and his partners from the Abu Dhabi United Group.

But any move for Manchester United superstar Ronaldo would be an indication City are deadly serious in their stated aim of becoming the world’s number one team.
