Financially alluring 从金融角度上看非常吸引人 this offer might be but has Eto’o considered the likely upshot 最终结局 of joining Manchester City?

The team, which is owned by billionaire Sheikh Mansour, has been adding might 威力 and spending money like there is no tomorrow 好像没有明天

Some question whether there is room in the line up for Eto’o and other recent signings such as Carlos Tevez. He will transfer from Manchester United at a cost of £25.5 (around 290 million yuan) and approximately £140,000 (around 1.58 million yuan) per week in salary.

There will surely be grumbles 抱怨,牢骚 from the players if they don’t see enough minutes on the field.

It could prove a huge headache 头疼 for the Manchester City manager Mark Hughes when deciding between new players and existing team members such as Robinho and Roque.

While Hughes is pondering 思量,考量 over that possible dilemma 可能出现的困境, the football community await an official transfer announcement. Manchester City hope to make an announcement regarding Eto’o’s transfer by mid July.
