Rojo off to Man Utd €20m + Nani on loan. Sporting are refusing to pay anything to Doyen Sports even tho they own 75% of Rojo.
anything? i could understand a dispute over the value of nani's loan as part of the deal but the whole thing? that's bold.
Would like to see Ballotelli back in the PL, very talented footballer and a bit of a character as well.
I think that's putting it mildly! One story I heard was that when he played for Citeh he used to drive around Manchester, and if he saw someone wearing a Man City shirt he would stop the car and hand them large wads of £20 notes.
Yeah there's loads about him giving homeless guys money, and driving round Moss Side with thousands on his passenger seat, and when police asked why he replied "because I'm rich". My favourite one though was him apparently finding the prostitute who Rooney shagged and started shouting "Rooney! Rooney! Rooney!" at her. Of course you don't know how true they all are, but I like to believe they are
But if I was a rich footy player at Saints I'd do just that. Funny how he's always in demand and his current club is always wiling to listen to offers. Love the way Man U are paying Nani's wages while on loan to avoid (more) complications over the Rojo transfer.
Of course (reaches into stereotype/cliche bag) 'cos they would be poor and lonely. I'd only give them 20p bits (more would surely confuse them) so they would feel rich and loved. Saints shirt wearing people would refuse my bundles of £20 notes. "Give this to the poor and needy" they would say while a heavenly choir sang hallelujahs. Truly Saints in every way. I see Spuds are in for Memphis Depay (again) how many bluddy midfielders do they need.
