Madrid to sign Adriano and an English player?

eirebhoy

Real Madrid Presidential candidate Lorenzo Sanz has sensationally announced that he has agreed to sign Inter striker Adriano.

“I have reached a deal with [owner Massimo] Moratti to sign Adriano if I am re-elected as President of Real Madrid,” he told Radio Marca.

“We have agreed a swap deal for a couple of players with Inter. Two will arrive from the Nerazzurri, I’ll also sign a Portuguese player and an Englishman.

“I’m ready to present the contracts on Thursday to prove to people that we have obtained these results.”

Adriano has been linked with the Spanish giants for some time and may be on the verge of an Inter exit.

He didn’t enjoy a great 2005-06 where he struggled for goals, as well as having problems with boss Roberto Mancini and some teammates.

It now seems that an exit is on the cards if Sanz, who recently attempted to buy Parma Football Club, wins the race for the Real hotseat next month.

If Inter do opt to sacrifice Adriano then it is expected that they will subsequently agree terms with Fiorentina over the capture of Luca Toni.

The two clubs have started talks for the Italian international and a fee is likely to be agreed after the World Cup Finals.

At this stage, it is unclear which other Inter and Real players may be involved in the deal supposedly brokered by Moratti and Sanz.

There is the possibility that Raul or old-boy Ronaldo could arrive.

Adriano said he's happy at Inter but I think he'll certainly leave this summer. Who could the English and Portuguese players be though?

Eglish player could very well be Ashley Cole. Has a year left of his arsenal contract and i cant see him signing another 1 so the arsenal will sell him.

The portugese player could be Christiano Ronaldo. I think its fairly well known that he wants to play for 1 of Spains big clubs at some stage and with United set to struggle to win back the premiership again i think it could be him

Lads seriously, it's pre-election time and it's getting very very tight. Real Madrid are about to be linked to every single player under the sun.

Yeah I'd agree with this. Mind you if he has something in writing its hard to come back.

Toni and Ronaldo at Inter sounds good. But I'd rather sell Martians and keep Adriano. Real can keep Raul!

Adriano would be perfect for Real, join their fat, lazy bunch of under achieving stars. He'll be the next Cassano.

C Ronaldo:

"I have told my agent I am prepared to leave. I want to do it in the best manner possible," Ronaldo is quoted as saying by Marca.

"I want to play for Real Madrid and dream of doing so.

"I have gone with Villar Mir's project because it is serious and follows correct procedures.

"They have explained to me their plans and the next step is they will talk to Manchester United to open negotiations.

Where did you get that from?

The quote is from the Marca paper in Madrid.

The guy who says he is going to sign Ronaldo also said he was going to sign Wenger, which Wenger instantly dismissed.

The Elections are on Sunday and it's close.

Totally agreed with this but with a new president is going to come some very very big signings.

English player might just be Woodgate- whenever he does play again- it will be like a new signing. Saying that I'd say it will be Ashley cole.

WhiteWashMan

you mean they are going to resign a player that plays about 20 minutes and scores an own goal?
