In what would be the biggest move of this summer's transfer window, Real Madrid superstar Cristiano Ronaldo has been linked a move to Manchester City .
Here's how we see his prospective move to Eastlands panning out...
* Real Madrid stun football by agreeing to sell Ronaldo to City. Real receive Carlos Tevez plus £50million in pound coins, which Jose Mourinho melts down to create a giant golden statue of himself, sneering.
* As news of signing spreads, Ronaldo is greeted at Manchester Airport by enthusiastic crowd comprising of Imogen Thomas, Jennifer Thompson and Helen Wood.
* A seemingly-confused Ronaldo makes his press conference debut at Eastlands. "When paint place blue?" he asks the press, "Where Wazza and Sir Alex?" A laughing Garry Cook bundles him away, later paying tribute to the Portuguese's "great banter".
* Celebrity fans welcome Ronaldo to Eastlands with care package including CD of Beady Eye album, collected Noel Gallagher lyrics book and DVDs of Ricky Hatton v Manny Pacquiao and Floyd Mayweather. He's spotted attempting to board plane back to Madrid.
* Disappointment before first training session when Ronaldo crashes his car into Roberto Mancini's, only to find Mario Balotelli has crashed into it first.
* Makes startling Community Shield debut against United. Removes blue shirt at kick-off to reveal chest crudely painted red-and-white in approximation of new Red Devils kit and pays for United for opening 10 minutes - until hospitalised by Nigel De Jong.
* Back in City training, is disciplined by Mancini for refusing to join in traditional punch-up for cameras.
* Makes bright start to City's season. After only seven games, has 10 assists - all to himself.
* Accused of disrespecting opponents Bolton by being spotted on wing during second half of 3-0 win, shaving own chest.
* At Christmas leads league with 20 goals, 15 assists, 10 superinjuctions and five surprise babies.
* Doubts continue about Ronaldo's commitment to City when, in Premier League game at Norwich, he is spotted handing a note to the home fans, reading: "I kidnapped. Send help. Good luck with your anti-Glazer campaign."
* Warring egos in City dressing room as Ronaldo and Balotelli accuse Pablo Zabaleta of "hogging all the limelight".
* Halfway through season, has scored 30 goals. Disciplined by Mancini for shirking defensive responsibilities.
* Found sitting on throne in centre of Manchester, attempting to "turn the rain back".
* Burgeoning Balotelli friendship broken up by Mancini after Ronaldo gives his new chum lessons in how to dive and roll around on the floor and the Italian nearly dies of grass allergy.
* Worrying late-season dip in form arrested when City kit staff discover new gold boots are made out of actual gold. Goes on to score 60th goal of season.
* Announces that, in tribute to City legend Bert Trautmann, he bravely played on during FA Cup final win over Birmingham despite breaking his own nail.
* City complete Quadruple by winning Champions League. Ronaldo accuses UEFA of pro-Barcelona conspiracy by not allowing them to also compete in La Liga and Copa del Rey.
