What matters is not whether it’s your day Julia Roberts he wore the Manchester United shirt and not the Manchester City one, which had been one of the themes of the week. What is interesting is what is happening in geopolitics in one of the world capitals of soccer. Manchester is fast becoming the paradigm of the new world. Manchester United are just hours away from passing through Qatari hands. Just like in his time they took PSG, now the sheikh Jassim bin Hamed Al Thani is about to close the purchase agreement with the family glazer, still owners of the Old Trafford outfit. North American billionaires have never had the love of ‘network’ fans. We’ll see what happens if the deal is finally closed and United becomes Qatari property. Suddenly, another Club-state will have all the checks from the sheikh to buy everything he wants in the football market. Meanwhile, on the opposite side of the sidewalk, is a Manchester City that the arrival of Guardiola passed the hand over the face to the mighty Nagkaikaisa, who belonged to Abu Dhabi United Group, that is, from the neighboring country of Qatar: United Arab Emirates. the sheikh Mansour bin Zayed al-Nahyan is the one that moves the strings and the money, far above Ferran Soriano and company. They are the new signs of the times where soccer’s upstarts are the nouveau riche, volatile nations, and in need of global love. Mighty lord, gift of money. Meanwhile, at Barça we are fighting to keep full ownership in the hands of the partners. We are the ultimate romantics. “More than a club”.
