Nike to help Manchester United to sign Cristiano Ronaldo

Nike representatives flew in to London to talk about the renewal of their shirt sponsorship agreement with Manchester United yesterday. But top of the agenda was talks about how they could help the club get Cristiano Ronaldo. An Old Trafford return could cost United around £65mil. The red devils are currently the biggest football club to wear their logo and Nike are so keen to bring back Ronaldo to Old Trafford in order to boost their brand and market in world football. Nike also currently sponsor Ronaldo in terms of boots and sportswear but are frustrated that he runs out in an adidas shirt with Real Madrid week in week out. Their current 13-year shirt deal with United is worth £303m and expires in 2015 and there has been various reports that suggests United could double or triple the sponsorship amount in the new deal. A deal for the Portuguese could happen in summer as Nike are willing to renew their new sponsorship deal early so United will have the cash to sign their former star. The signing of Ronaldo could well increase United’s future sponsorship deals with other companies.

What do you guys think?

I don't think this should be allowed. In all honesty its worse than rich owners buy players, at least they are part of the club. In this situation a third party is funding a huge move for one of the top players. This should be agaisnt some FIFA regulation.

I agree with raimondo. It's already bad enough that Ronaldo's agent (and Falcao, and half a dozen other superstars) is the same as Jose Mourinho's.

Football should not be about moving your friends around to make the most money.

Do we really need him? Honestly? I'm not saying Ronaldo's bad. I respect all he's done for United and his skill but I feel we're being blinded by the homecoming of Ronaldo.

I'm ok with Ronaldo coming back but not like this. And to be very fair he is not needed at United AT ALL. Madrid on the other hand cannot afford to let him go.

its rong but think about it some part of the sales of the shirts that sell some money goes to nike and if ronaldo came more shirts of ronaldo would buy and nike would get more money so win win for them but still it is wrong
