Sulaiman Al-Fahim, A New Billionaire in Manchester City
Dr. Sulaiman Al-Fahim is a billionaire from UAE. He is worth 10 times more than Chelsea FC owner Roman Abramovich.
On 1 September 2008, Manchester City was taken over by the Abu Dhabi United Group. The deal was signed at the Emirates Palace Hotel in the presence of Al-Fahim, who was representing the ADUGboard. Al-Fahim represents ADUG and is expected to sit on the Manchester City board. Within hours of joining, the billionaire financed the purchase of Robinho for a British transfer record of £32.5 million.
He has also said that he wants to bring players such as Lionel Messi, Sergio Ramos, Javier Mascherano, Philip Lahm, Fabio Cannavaro, Kaká. Rumours of the players' discontent at AC Milan are beginning to gather pace and their failure to reach this season's UEFA Champions League has only added fuel to that particular fire. Also Francesc Fabregas, Fernando Torres, Ruud Van Nistelrooy, Ronaldo and David Villa are said to be targets for the Manchester club. Bids, such as the club's attempt to gazump Manchester United's protracted bid to sign Dimitar Berbatov from Tottenham Hotspur, have shown an early intent of what could seem a formality in the future.
