Al-Fahim stated to the Guardian that he wants Ronaldo, Torres and Fabregas to join his team. This was his comment about acquiring Ronaldo: “Real Madrid were estimating his value at $160million (£90m) but for a player like that, to actually get him, will cost a lot more; I would think $240million (£135m). But why not? We are going to be the biggest club in the world, bigger than both Real Madrid and Manchester United.”

Al-Fahim just purchased Robinho for a shocking British record €32millions.
