300 million to buy Newcastle and a target: Cristiano Ronaldo

300 million euros and Cristiano Ronaldo as the star signing. That is the offer from Evangeline Shen, director of 'Bellagraph Nova Group', to take control of Newcastle. It is a successful company with earnings of around 9 billion a year.

From England, they are informing that she is the main candidate to take over the club after the investors from Saudi Arabia pulled out of the negotiations. They still intend to go back to the negotiating table. They will have to hurry up now that they have a competent opponent.

The initial investment, if it is necessary to convince current owner Mike Ashley, and the signing of Cristiano Ronaldo would shoot up the first season spendings of the Magpies. With overwhelming buying power behind her, Evangeline Shen sees the deal as feasible.

The Premier League, who were somewhat reluctant to the purchase from the Saudi investors, look favourably on the buyer being Canadian. There are two reasons. The first, the rise of piracy in that country. The second, the arrival of the Portuguese star, which would multiply the income.
