There are indications that Paris Saint-Germain has tendered $137,662,500 (€125 million) bid for the Portugal and Real Madrid star, Cristiano Ronaldo.

Arguably the biggest star in the game right now, Ronaldo, is always involved in transfer speculation, most often to his former club Manchester United.

Spanish newspaper, Marca, reported yesterday that the French giant PSG is in line for Ronaldo.

Al Khelaifi…has happily confirmed that he wouldn’t think twice about forking out €125 million to have Ronaldo playing for him.

Florentino Pérez…naturally doesn’t want Ronaldo to go. At the Bernabéu they believe that the Portuguese player still has two spectacular seasons left in him, but don’t want to force him to stay. The only man that has been locked down is Bale.

Ronaldo knows that Real Madrid history and legend awaits him. He would love to break Raúl’s record as the club’s most prolific goalscorer, but first, he wants to set the scene upon which to achieve it – one that at present does not exist.

While this is far from a done deal, Ronaldo isn’t getting any younger, and it makes sense that Real would be completely open to letting him go right now from a value depreciation standpoint.

Nevertheless, Ronaldo would have to blatantly demand an exit to have this situation become a reality, ignoring a possible future status as the best Real Madrid player of all-time, and PSG would have to increase his salary substantially. With the current Financial Fair Play restrictions in place, this one seems unlikely.

    Just wandering how many 4-year university degree courses that amount of money will comfortably fund, even at the most prestigious universities worldwide. Hmmm… talk of opportunity cost! Any economist around?

      Nope, the football business does not obey your economical rules, its based on passion and freedom of life, the world pays billions to watch superstars both footballers and musicians, it’s based on these profits they demand their cuts/shares. Now go back to your everyday job. Definitely not a star

        I’m really wondering what people gain from shouting themselves hoax during football matches. Besides whatever money is made in football or other sports for that matter, is shared between the players, the clubs and the sponsors. And the fans? … they go home empty handed after shouting themselves hoax and insulting themselves for 90 minutes or 120, as the case may be. I’m still considering the opportunity cost of Ronaldo’s millions!!!

    Football has become big business even with the attendant risk of permanent injury.
