Kiwidoug Posted August 25, 2020 Share Posted August 25, 2020 If he's greedy, he'll go somewhere like Saudi or China for squillions. If not, he'll be having a pint with JJ in the 'Diiggers before you can say wee ron. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ronaldo9 Posted August 25, 2020 Share Posted August 25, 2020 If he stays in Europe I can only see him ending up at PSG with Neymar and Mbappe. Possibly one of the Milan’s but he’ll want to ensure he keeps winning like Ronaldo has done with Juventus and that’s less likely there.

copa-mundial Posted August 25, 2020 Share Posted August 25, 2020 Man City I reckon. They can afford his salary. They're chasing champions league glory. Messi won't have to learn English. This would be a key factor I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Part of his deal was the opportunity to buy an expansion franchise for £25m when he retired. It’s slowly getting better but it’s still not a great standard, loads of attacking and goals though, which is a refreshing change. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bazzas right boot Posted August 25, 2020 Share Posted August 25, 2020 Anyone can afford him, he'll be on zero per week soon. Time to strike while the iron is hot. Maybe he'll fancy a shorter season, wind down a bit in his older years Enjoy the countryside, the lochs, cycles. Time for Robbie to make a move.

benny Posted August 25, 2020 Share Posted August 25, 2020 Are Juve not open to the idea of Ronaldo leaving as well.

I think it is - the clause was clear designed to give him a few weeks after the end of the season to make a decision, the season was extended, the transfer windows were adjusted.. I think it’s bulletproof tbh. and even if it isn’t, you think Barca would insist on an unhappy Messi staying for a year ? And paying him £45million.. not a chance ! Their season would be over before it’s begun.. no he will go if that is what he wants. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
