There's a rumour/conspiracy theory/urban legend about Manchester United winger and Portuguese international Cristiano Ronaldo (23) running through Barcelona these days. Because it's a really nice one, I don't want to hold it from you.
One.
Ronaldo is using the interest of Real Madrid to pressure Manchester United manager Ferguson, hoping Sir Alex will in the end just throw him out. When Manchester agrees with an exit, Ronaldo would nevertheless not go to Madrid. But to Barcelona.
Two.
Ronaldo would have agreed with sports supplier Nike that he would join Barcelona to replace there Ronaldinho as the star of a team that is officially sponsored by Nike.
Three.
The man behind the whole strategy would be former Barcelona sports vice president and former Nike executive Sandro Rosell. Rosell thinks that the vote of no confidence against the Barcelona board will succeed, which would mean there will be presidential elections in a few months time. Rosell will most probably take part in the presidential race and would start as the favourite candidate. The transfers of Ronaldo and of Portuguese national team coach Luiz Felipe Scolari would be the secret weapon of Rosell in those elections.
