Everything comes to an end, though, in the case of Brazil, will be difficult not been reached so traumatic
Ronaldinho and Barca do not want problems. But that will not have complicated. The first team Blaugrana, which for the moment, the Brazilian part, the preseason begins today. The players were cited this morning to pass the relevant medical evidence before short dress and start sweating. The club hopes that the'10 ', like the rest of colleagues, is at the Camp Nou, but it was informed yesterday SPORT, the player is still in Brazil and has no intention to until everything is not resolved.
Ronaldinho has opened two fronts. The first is to close its output Blaugrana club, which has spent the last five seasons. The second is to obtain permission to play with the Brazilian team the Olympic Games. Both goals are entirely compatible and correlative since, if the player agrees the termination of his contract with the club, you can do what it pleases, and among these possibilities, is also the travelling with his companions selection to Brazil. But the Blaugrana club is unwilling to yield to blackmail posed by the threat of Article 17. To begin with, he hoped to see him today at the Camp Nou dressed in the colors of the entity Blaugrana. And from there, sit down to negotiate her goodbye as footballer of the first squad. The problem is that nothing is not clear are the intentions of the player. Although in principle was given by the fact that'10 'would stay in Brazil along with its specific plan to prepare for the Olympic Games, yesterday was speculation that Ronaldinho landed today at El Prat airport for not throw more fuel to fire and make things easier.
However, this possibility, yesterday afternoon, and seemed distant from Brazilian land, the more likely option was that his brother and agent, Roberto de Assis, Take a single plane to Barcelona to start negotiations. Today quit doubts.
(The Brazilian footballer began a few days ago its plan for specific training on how to reach the Olympic Games in Beijing. Footballer has stopped seeing these days with a notable that the overweight will face if it wants to be competitive in the Olympic event. Follow the instructions of his personal fitness coach at Porto Alegre).
What we do not offers is no doubt that this week should be resolved all issues that the club has outstanding player. And vice versa. The first thing is finding a team. The club already has Blaugrana: Manchester City. It pays the most (32 million euros) and that more has been moved to take over its services. Surely Roberto de Assis and Ronaldinho to own them happiest with the idea to leave Italy, but the Blaugrana club already has an agreement with an entity owned by the Thai tycoon Thaksin Shinawatra. Indeed, among those offered by Milan, 10 million euros, and which offers the City, half an abyss. Adriano Galliani will arrive this week in Barcelona for reaching an agreement that ate with the Brazilian club rossonero '. But will meet with Barca's refusal to let go for just 10 million. The intention is to match the offer of joint 'blue sky'. That is why the club wants Roberto de Assis reached an agreement with the City to selling it to England, although the intention of the De Assis is to leave Milan. It foresees a struggle in which all must raise its bid Lombard, although it is very unlikely to reach 32 million euros. The Milan plays with the argument that Ronaldinho wants to play in the Calcio, but the club is not obligated to sell to the 'rossoneri'.
Alternatively, the eternal possibility is that the player invoking Article 17, which could by leaving some 16 million euros, but the player's interest not to leave through the back door, despite Roberto de Assis has had no difficulty since in Brazil threaten to do so. Whatever happens, the fact that Ronaldinho will not be present today at the medical evidence is a statement of intent by the Brazilian. Something as declared in absentia to force the club to reach an agreement. The player only thinks about one thing: leave the club and leave to play the Olympic Games.
