Manchester: English Premier League champions Manchester City are set to launch an amazing word record bid to sign Real Madrid's Cristiano Ronaldo. The Daily Star says City are working on a four year contract offer to bring the former Manchester United star back to the Premier League.
The offer is said to be in the region of £95 million and City officials are pretty confident that they can lure unhappy Real Madrid star. But they face stiff competition from the likes of Chelsea, PSG and Manchester United.
Ronaldo in the past has previously stated that he wants to return to the EPL and wants to finish his career with his former team Manchester United.
Buying Ronaldo would mean boss Roberto Mancini having to sell players to clear space on City's wage bill for the 27-year-old, who is paid around £250,000 a week in Madrid.
So it is unlikely to happen until next summer, when they feel Real could be forced to cash in on one of world football's top talents for much less than his rumoured £1bn euro buy-out clause.
