Manchester United Fans Contribute Money To Buy Back Ronaldo

After a weekend of goodbyes to iconic figures Sir Alex Ferguson and Paul Scholes, Manchester United fans might be saying hello again to Cristiano Ronaldo - if they themselves can find the money.

A small band of Australian-based United supporters have created a website where fans can help raise funds to bring back their old favourite, who has a £100million buyout clause, from Real Madrid.

The 'BringRonaldoHome' movement has already received thousands of pledges to buy a United shirt with Ronaldo on it - however it needs 10 million to donate a tenner for this target to be reached.

Wenger to buy ‘exceptional player’ in January

Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger has admitted he will only spend in the January transfer window for an “exceptional player” to boost his squad. Wenger has money to spend and was expected to bring in a few new faces after a poor run of form last month. However, the Gunners have won their last three Premier League games to put themselves back in the top four and Wenger has hinted he will not spend big in the New Year unless a top talent becomes available. “We are in the market, but only if we find players who will really strengthen us because we have a good squad. But if we find an exceptional player then we will take him,” Wenger told the Daily Mirror.“We lacked fluidity in our attacks against Wigan and continuity in our attacking play but we won because of our will to win. And, with the way things are now, I won’t turn my nose up at that.”

Wenger: We’ll Buy Messi In January

Despite the intense criticism he has faced this season – which by the way he is familiar with and speculation of a rift between him and his assistant, Steve Bould, Arsene Wenger has stoically backed his current crop of players insisting he actually won more trophies with a group of players who were not as focused as his current squad at the Emirates. The 62-year old Frenchman told a news conference on Friday, “I have had groups who had fantastic results who were less serious than these players, believe me. We won trophies with players who were less focused than this team.
