Portugal 'sells' Ronaldo to Spain in £160m deal on national debt - International - Football - The Independent

Just found this through facebook, ok its dates as last april but all im saying is how could they even consider pulling something like this off. FIFA would have had a collective stroke ud have to a real idiot to try and sell a footballer to another country because your country is in debt.

What would be to stop quatar or any of those countries buying spanish players because their economy is bad or wayne rooney off england.

Read this awhile back and if this happened international football would be turned into a farce. Its bad enough that you can have a choice of like 2 or 3 countries to play for due to parents nationalities. You should play for the team in which you were born, simple as.
