We are buying Atletico Torque

Manchester City’s owners, City Football Group, are set to add Uruguayan second division side Atletico Torque to their portfolio of clubs.

CFG, the holding company owned by Sheikh Mansour, already counts City, Australia side Melbourne City, MLS’ New York City FC among their stable, while also possessing a stake in Japanese side Yokohama F. Marinos.

City itself also has close links to Spanish second tier side Girona, through their ties with Media Base Sports - the agency run by Pep Guardiola’s brother, Pere, and his business partner Jaume Roures.

City's owners have increasingly been looking into South America as the next arm of CFG's global expansion.


Saw some post from a guy from Football Leaks that said we are trying to do something like this: https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles ... -transfers . Basically, money laundering. You cannot make this shit up. Piss funny.

Anyway, Hip hip hurray.

Is it a leveraged buy-out?

I hope Torque is a City and not a Town. Otherwise the whole branding thing falls apart.

And that would be a wrench

Oh dear he is still in our books isn't he. Where are all the offers from China? A cheeky £30mil would do it.
Or just bag of crisps if they take Bravo as well

Wish we'd just buy decent players instead of fucking clubs on every continent. I'm falling out of love with football and sadly, also feel like City is slipping away

Every time you feel like that, just think of the prospect of Sane/Jesus/Sterling playing together for City for the next decade....
