Real Madrid - Ronaldo (Manchester United) and Fabregas (Arsenal) are impossible signings
Here’s a thought - why don’t they start calling it the soccer circus? I know Keegan’s taken the name and brought it with him to Newcastle, but let’s make it official.
The Real Madrid transfer circus has a new twist - where yesterday Ronaldo’s mum was going on and on about how she loves Real Madrid (the term b*tch comes to mind but let’s defer in respect of the Manchester United number 7), today Predrag Mijatovic says that for Real Madrid to sign Cristiano Ronaldo and Cesc Fabregas is impossible, and that they’re not going to try.
What? Reverse psychology by Real Madrid? Gotta love it.
Before you dose off to sleep at the sight of another discussion on whether Real can get these two players, let’s put the record straight:
Fabregas has a contract with Arsenal till 2014 and is future captain. He’s also more inclined to go to Barcelona than Real Madrid. Arsenal do not want to sell, Arsenal do not need to sell and unless all hell breaks lose at Arsenal (they finish 5th, lose Wenger and have to either sell players or sell the Emirates), Fabregas isn’t leaving.
Ronaldo has a contract with Manchester United till 2012 and is the heartbeat of the team. He’s surrounded by friends and loves it at Old Trafford. Manchester United won’t sell if they’re paid 50 or even 60m for him, simply because you cannot replace Ronaldo (he earned Manchester United one Premier League title and could very well lead them to a second - how do you put a price on that?). Manchester United don’t need to sell either - unless, of course, the worst-case scenario happens - Ferguson leaves, Steve McClaren comes in place and tries to appease England fans by selling Ronaldo (and thus becomes the first football manager to be killed by his club’s own fans).
Having said all this, let’s revisit this discussion in 2 years, when they’re both older and have grown tired of shagging English.
- Real Madrid target Ronaldo, Kaka and Metzelder
- Did Arsenal allow Fabregas to talk to Real Madrid?
- Manchester United won’t sell Ronaldo for less than 40m

An interesting close to the article… =)
Though I’m sure in a couple of years time, both Ronaldo and Cesc will be able to afford EasyJet holidays to Ibiza when they fancy a change?
I won’t be too sure about that. Anything is possible in football.
Impossible is nothing, cesc is paid well below than he should and real can prolly triple it and when was the last time ronaldo played in old trafford without being booed? Dont blink, you might miss something
we wont sell him he`s our prized assest..there`s no way he can go unless sir alex decides to show him the door and thats widly unexpected.so so Real madrid FUCK OFF and sign some guy from other place……….GGMU
ronaldo wont be sold even $100 mil becayse he is the figure next to Rooney to man united
Ronaldo will remain for as long as SAF remain. Only time he’ll leave sooner is perhaps in 2 years time if United win the UCL this season.
I won’t read too much into what the papers claim his mother said. If she wants him to go, she will tell him to go. If she tell him to go, he will go (Only reason he stayed at United is because of her).
I can’t quite understand what Pepe meant with:
“Of course, I’d tell him to join me here. In addition, if he wants to be the best player in the world he must play for an organization like Madrid.”
- What does he mean by an organisation like Madrid?
- United is definitely among the 3 biggest clubs in the world (arguably the biggest).
- Do people really think that another club/coach will give Ronaldo the same freedom (as a winger for that matter) to express himself in a game than he receives now? (maybe I have not seen enough games of Madrid, but I doubt Robinho receives that kind of freedom during games? What about Robben?)
