Schumacher manager denies Mallorca move
Aug.17 - Michael Schumacher's manager has denied reports the F1 legend is moving to Spain.
It was reported this week, and confirmed by the local mayor, that the Schumacher family including the seven time world champion are relocating from Switzerland to a EUR 30 million property in Mallorca -- an island off the Spanish coast.
But Sabine Kehm, Schumacher's manager, denied the news.
"The Schumacher family is not planning to move to Mallorca," she told Bild newspaper.
The report said while it is true that Corinna Schumacher bought the property belonging to Real Madrid president Forentino Perez, it will not be the former Benetton, Ferrari and Mercedes driver's residence.
A spokesman for the Mallorca town of Andratx, meanwhile, said: "Our mayor never said that Michael Schumacher is moving to Mallorca and that we are preparing security measures for his arrival.
"Perhaps it was a translation error," he added.
"The only thing she (the mayor) mentioned is that Antratx would be prepared if the family decided to move here. In that case, the family would be treated like all other residents."

Leave the man and his family be.
Schumacher went into F1 knowing no he would get fans and followers worldwide. These people have grown to love him as well over the years , therefore telling us to leave be will not go.... it’s like telling you to forget your family. His manager needs to do one and think how we feel for a change. Pisses me off that we never know what’s going on . For bad or good we are his family as well
The man is retired from racing and his head injury is not related to racing. He deserves a private life so I repeat leave him and his family be. His family have asked for privacy and that trumps what his fans would like.
