Whilst our fun-sized president was on his trip to Latvia, he received the exciting news that his beloved Galway United had been offered the €500,000 investment needed to keep the club afloat.
The two Saudi businessmen involved, Abdulrahman Al Nemer and Mohammed Al Ruwaite will now be majority shareholders of the side.
As well as the half a million euro, they pledged to develop the underage ranks, boost backroom staff and work to secure the team's return to the Premier Division - music to Uachtarán na hÉireann's little ears.
With all this newfound wealth, and the transfer window widening, President Higgins' imagination runs away with itself in a beautiful dream of Champions League glory.

They'd love a bit of Cristiano...
