BY 2015, REAL MADRID will finally have a $1 billion man-made island all to itself, the club announced yesterday.
The 4.6 million square-foot Real Madrid Island Resort will be the first of its kind — a luxury resort, seaside getaway, amusement park, and soccer tourist destination all rolled into one.
The club isn’t shouldering all of the costs. It made a deal up with the government of the Emirate of Ras Al Khaimah to foot part of the bill.
The team has released a sandy, hyper-kinetic promotional video with incredible illustrations of what the resort will look like, and we grabbed screenshots of the craziest designs.
