Real Madrid-Barcelona, what they cost ...

According to report by the Daily Telegraph, Real Madrid spent more on signing Cristiano Ronaldo ($136 million) than Barcelona did on its projected starting XI ($123 million).

Nutten aint wrong either with Real business plan.
When last I check, I think Barca might have been in more debt than Real, not sure, but they recently had to sign some deal to put a sponsor on their shirt under the UNICEF to defray some of it.

That and they have spent 700 Million Euros in transfers to Real's 1 Billion since 2000, so are they not angels. Plus they so in debt they couldn't pay salaries last June. They had to get the Spanish bank La Caixa to bail dem out.
