The Brazilian football striker Ronaldo is in talks with Manchester City and hopes to return from a career-threatening knee injury in two or three months.
Ronaldo has told French sports daily L'Equipe its a great possibility when asked whether he could move to the Premier League.
He says Manchester City is putting together an incredible project with great players, referring to the club's new-found wealth, secured by the imminent takeover by an Abu Dhabi-based company.
But earlier in the week City confirmed there had been initial interest in Ronaldo but insisted they were no longer pursuing him.
