Ronaldinho

The last few hours have produced more movement on Ronaldinho's potential move to City than we have seen since the stories started months ago.

After reports that he would be joining Milan this morning, this afternoon saw claims of a change of heart. It started in Catalan daily Sport, and has since spread across international media: the player will tell Barcelona that he is leaving tomorrow, and unless Galliani comes up with €32million in a matter of hours, he will be coming to City. It is featured, prominently I'm sure, in Monday's Times and Mail.

So we are hours away from what could be the annoucement of the biggest transfer in Premier League, never mind City's history.

Unfortunately for me - but not for you, readers, for if the reports are true you will have more on your minds than the contents of this blog - I am leaving the country tomorrow and will not be back until next Monday (21st). For the intervening period, I hand the reigns over to my brother - so posts will appear as authored by 'TPB' rather than 'JPB'. In my absence, he will guide you transfer speculation and, if he can find a working live stream, the trip to Fortress Torshavn.
