Real obsessed with Rooney
Real Madrid have an "obsession" about signing Wayne Rooney but would need to fork out £80million or more to do so, according to former president Ramon Calderon.
Madrid, who have spent £250million assembling a team with stars such as Cristiano Ronaldo, Kaka and Xabi Alonso, were knocked out of the Champions League in midweek by Lyon.
Current president Florentino Perez has been linked with potential moves for Jose Mourinho to replace manager Manuel Pellegrini and Manchester United striker Rooney.
Calderon said: "It seems that it's an obsession for the president to go for Rooney. I imagine Manchester United wouldn't like to lose a player like him.
"Sometimes it's a point of money and if there is a proposal maybe there will be a deal.
"You have to take into account that the most important thing is what a player wants to do.
"Ronaldo was a good signing. He is one of the best. He is a professional, a real professional and he is doing a really good job.
"I don't know if it is possible to spend again another 100 or 80 million more euros. I imagine in that case you (Manchester United) would have to sell."
Asked on BBC Radio Five Live's Sportsweek programme if Ronaldo regretted his move to Madrid, Calderon added: "I don't think so.
"He did what he wanted to do, he came to a big club. The idea was to win everything but you can't buy everything with money.
"Even though you think you've got a lot of very good players together, that's not the same as having a good team."

I'm looking forward to spending my 80mil
I think I'll buy a Ronaldo
Re: Real obsessed with Rooney
Judging by the English press last week it's Gerard they are after not Rooney. They believe they have a very good chance of getting Gerard if Liverpool don't get 4th spot.

they don't think that far ahead
Re: Real obsessed with Rooney
Even if they get Rooney they will still get knocked out of CL at the round of 16
Re: Real obsessed with Rooney
rooney wont go, hasn't played the media like ronaldo did, gerrard is the bid story atm, 30 mil pounds with city and real in the mix, but only if pool don't get 4th, no big transfers will happen until after the world cup


Re: Real obsessed with Rooney
if i was pool id sell gerrard for 30 mil
thats big money
gerrard is nearly 30?? and also dipped in form this season, i know hes had injuries but 30 mil is alot and they can buy a young decent player and build a squad
look at fergie, he knows exactly when 2 get rif of players
thats big money

Re: Real obsessed with Rooney
i fear that if we did sell stevie, torres would want out as well. even though he has dipped form, he is a rare type of player and should be untouchableMUFCBOY wrote:if i was pool id sell gerrard for 30 mil

Re: Real obsessed with Rooney
this is your biggest problem should you not finish fourth, have to keep everyone happy with less money while they are all at the world cup in the shop window, will struggle to hang onto a few stars me thinkstotsreds08 wrote:i fear that if we did sell stevie, torres would want out as well. even though he has dipped form, he is a rare type of player and should be untouchableMUFCBOY wrote:if i was pool id sell gerrard for 30 mil

He wont go back to spain, and if he does it will only be Barca, but do they need a striker?
Dont think he is suited in Italy
Only in the EPL
Man City?? No history, only really Man United and Chelsea can afford him in the EPL, but i dont see Pool selling them there star player
Re: Real obsessed with Rooney
I'd say he might go to Barca if he's freed up. Especially if they don't end up getting Villa, and Henry is moves to the US.MUFCBOY wrote:Torres wont leave, i just dont see them selling there star player!totsreds08 wrote:i fear that if we did sell stevie, torres would want out as well. even though he has dipped form, he is a rare type of player and should be untouchableMUFCBOY wrote:if i was pool id sell gerrard for 30 mil
