Seem to remember you saying the same about Ronaldo, until we bought him. Apologies if I'm mixing you up with someone else.

If a top striker is on the market for 10m, we will find 10m. No question.

I was right then too.

They’ve paid for him and all recent signings with credit/debt. Cash reserves all used up and they’re shipping £2m a week over what they make, increasing debt. Ronaldo leaving was a relief to them.

They have to sell because they can’t afford to run the club anymore. Debt is spiralling.
