Hello Celebritys

From ESPN.com:

Manchester United have accepted an £80m ($131.6m or €93.9m) offer from Real Madrid for Cristiano Ronaldo.

A statement on the United website confirmed that a deal for the 24-year-old should be completed by the end of the month.

I am disappointed with this move. Ronaldo is my favorite player and is now leaving my favorite soccer team. Man U has to try and do something to replace him, but it won’t be easy. I don’t know how you fill the void of losing one of the best soccer players in the world. United may also lose Carlos Tevez this offseason.

It appears as it stands now that Wayne Rooney will have step his game up to another level and become the main option for Man U.

From SoccerLens:

The 80m transfer fee for Ronaldo means that Real Madrid have smashed the world record in transfer fees twice in the space of a week, with Kaka signing for a reported £56m from AC Milan earlier this month. The previous world record fee was £45.6m Real paid for Zinedine Zidane in 2001. The move also eclipses the Manchester United and English Premier League transfer records (£30m for Berbatov and £32 million for Robinho, both deals going through on the last day of last year’s summer transfer window.

I am glad I held off on picking up a Man U Ronaldo jersey. Maybe I can get one on sale now.
