Ronaldinho Gaucho txiki

Ronaldinho's brother Roberto de Assis, undertook with the CBF few days ago to personally lead negotiations with Barcelona in order to try to enable the 'crack' Brazilian participate in the Olympic Games in Beijing

Well, with the words the sports director of the entity Catalan, Txiki Begiristain, it appears that the player's agent will certainly be difficult to achieve the transfer of the player. "We are at a momentous time. This Summers played the previous Champions League and for me to Ronnie is the same case that Messi: we will do everything possible to ensure that Leo is with us on July 14 because we believe that assists us reason and also if Ronnie still here by the circumstances are, then try not to equally participate in the Games. "

There is no doubt that Barcelona could use this situation as a perfect strategy to try to expedite their transfer to another treated as any other player in staffing: "Ronnie is not in my plans, but that does not mean it is well received in the case that finally left. If I change my plans in the event that Ronaldinho follow us? For nothing. " club, as it does not relinquish to the wishes of Ronaldinho with the aim of eventually find an outlet in another club to participate in the Games without any hindrance. Right now, the club Blaugrana has a deterrent weapon for the player at the end decides to avoid more pulses.

For his part, insisted that coach Pep Guardiola has no Ronaldinho, but in any case if finally recalled that the 'crack' stay decides not vary one iota in their plans and what

As advanced SPORT, the footballer has free rein to negotiate their departure from the Camp Nou next season

The last time San Siro saw playing Brazilian was April 18, 2006, almost two years ago. On that occasion, the10 , in full form, gave a pass to stratospheric Giuly, which marked the only both of those semifinals of Champions. The Barça end up being champion. Today Ronaldinho lives in the gym and away from the playgrounds, has played a season in the Camp Nou, but there can open another where, despite executioner was, it left a good memory. See Ronaldinho wearing the shirt of Milan is no longer a dream for the rossoneri, but a reality that began to materialize for years and yesterday saw a crucial chapter in Barcelona.

According progressed yesterday afternoon edition of The Graderia, Ona FM, the three parties involved in the negotiations were found in a hotel in Barcelona to lay the groundwork for an agreement that would lead to Ronaldinho Milan. The meeting was attended by the technical secretary of Barça, Txiki Begiristain, Spains representative in Milan, Ernesto Bronzetti, and the brother and representative of the Brazilian footballer, Roberto de Assis. This is the first time that the club blaugrana agree to sit down to negotiate a way out Ronaldinho, which is very significant, given that last summer was the Chelsea player who wanted to take her to London and the club blaugrana did not want to hear or supply of Team Abramovich. The situation now is very different.

Indeed, as anunciábamos in our edition of Wednesday, Barça has already communicated to the player who does not have him for next season. Thus, the only solution is to reach an agreement to transfer to Brazil. That point is the one that most discrepancies resulted in the meeting, since Roberto de Assis wants the club to give the letter represented his freedom to be able to negotiate freely, something that Barça is unwilling. So much so that even would have already spoken of a price rondaría 15 and 20 million euros. It also discussed the transfer of some 5 million by Zambrotta.

Yesterdays meeting served to lay the groundwork for an agreement, but it will be next week, a new event that still has materialized when, surely, is closing. Silvio Berlusconi, president of Milan, in Italy has already announced that the recruitment of Ronaldinho is imminent, and even explained that the Brazilian, if you leave Barça, only to go to the club rossonero. In addition, Inter, which appeared to rival that should compete with Milan, has been unchecked through its president, Massimo Moratti, clocking her: "There will be no auction for Ronaldinho."

Roberto de Assis already know and are moving threads to his brother landed in Italy or in England

It approaches the end of a cycle. The Barça already has told Roberto de Assis, the brother and representative of Ronaldinho, who do not have a player in that team and can be searched easily. This has already set to work to treat the transfer of the AC Milan footballer or to the highest bidder that tercie as quickly as possible and does not present major complications. If he were, Roberto seek to realize the operation in fifteen days has commented according to his closest circle, but Barça has already said that this type of operation should be done calmly and that we must not rushed so it is more than likely that the departure of Ronaldinho is dragging out a lot more of what it wanted. We sense that there will be saga Ronaldinho on his transfer as it has been with his controversial injury. At the Camp Nou recognize and assume that if the player must leave the institution will smoothly, but always has been consistent and closed an agreement satisfactory in which Barcelona did not lose too much financially.

Something will be lost because of the reputation that it was a crack world is now on the floor but we want to avoid that is a lot.

So in the midst of this conflict situation between the two sides, negotiations, or at least contacts, have already begun. Roberto de Assís has already spoken by telephone with Marc England, a man of weight and vice president of sports area and the technical secretary Txiki Begiristain of the entity.

There are three teams that have been postulated to be publicly with the services of the footballer. Milan, Manchester City and Chelsea, in this order contemplated vestirlo his uniform but with the player and its surroundings have made it clear that his idea is to play in the Milan always trying to get the maximum economic chop as they have done in recent years in the Barça. From Assís knows well as move in the world of football and having contact with the leaders of the English team with the help of Israeli emissary Pini Zahavi now wants to tighten the nuts in a sort of Italian-style game of cat and mouse.

Ronaldinho is clear that the financial offer from Manchester City is very important but he also knows that his prestige sports would fall sharply. In Milan, on the other hand, can opt to win titles and has secured participation in the Champions while City has never been a team of reference and its global developments could remain in oblivion. Ronnie and its surroundings are well aware that money is important but so are sporting successes so it seems that played in Italy since Chelsea also descuelga increasingly.

The absence of Ronaldinho from the list of invited for the match yesterday was a story that was more or less assumed circled barcelonistas. The pace of the Brazilian training this week has not been the most appropriate and Ronnie had returned to the gym.

On Saturday, medical services confirmed their absence with a brief stop in the doctor alleging that some "discomfort in the right adductor."

However, yesterdays El Periodico de Catalunya suggested that beyond the inconvenience of the Brazilian player, Rijkaard had decided to dispense with him because his behavior during the week was not the most professional and that the player had repeated the action who starred in the week prior to playing against Real Madrid at which did not reach the optimum working conditions for training.

However, the club closed ranks around player and ruled that there was If Ronaldinho but in no way denied the information from our colleagues in an exhaustive manner.

Upon arrival at Almeria Sunday morning, Joan Laporta said, "I do not believe that this should be an issue to be commented on by me. The day-to-day team up to Txiki and Rijkaard. I have not heard that anything has passed. "

For his part, the technical secretary barcelonista told the rest of the party "does not usually comment on whats newspapers. Frank Rijkaard had a reunion with doctors and then decided not convocarle. The technician calls him seem. To me, Rijkaard tells me many things, but understand that remain in the private sphere. "

The coach of Barça returned to offer another sign of confidence in the Brazilian crack and he continues to value as a great crack team

Ronaldinho constantly live in the eye of the hurricane since his performance suffered an alarming slump last season. He has received criticism from all sides, but has always found a loyal supporter in the shape of Frank Rijkaard. The Dutch again commend the Brazilian in an interview with Reuters that stood in the hierarchy above that is considered unanimously as a starting player like Leo Messi.

The technician remarked that "as far as I see it, Ronaldinho remains the number one. So is for Messi. It is not for nothing that when Ronnie enters the field, Messi always are looking for. And that also gives the maturity to help the partner because you have to do things like touch them, but not find it excessively. " Rijkaard understands that the Brazilian "when it recovers, it is one of the best" and that will increase their level as they "have sufficient minute workouts and parties."

The recipe for improving their performance spends so inescapable, as the coach, a full part in every session since their quality is obvious: "I hope that you well, but I can not see the future and depends on many factors, and the principal is the same player, which should continue trabhajando and sacrifice to get where they want. " The coach does not believe that blaugrana Ronnie being cleared site on the eleventh day, and when they improve their physical condition "no problems". Rijkaard fully supports the footballer and his continuity in the club, but stated that already spoken "a lot" about its future and that "enough is enough" because now touches "to work and react."

As for the trajectory of the team, Rijkaard showed his "joy" because "people say that he has changed his luck and be with the team. Despite the pessimism has faded, the Dutch did not believe that "everything has changed in a week" after the victory in the last sigh versus Osasuna and puncture Madrid in Spain. "We must continue to work and believe in our potential. Psychologically, recent victories have been very important for the team and also have been victories worked and should give us confidence. "

The Dutch do not want marked long-term objectives and described the clash in Seville as "the most important" and, if liguera reverse the situation, "can be traced to talk about, but if we win everything is not just a dispute traced because all competitions and mean it is a success for us, whatever happens and whatever you do the rival team, which I hardly interested. " Rijkaard stressed that "what interests me is winning, aunqeu now Madrid is still the best team because it is the leader." The technician appealed to "not give something" and "demonstrate that, at the end of the season, if you work it is possible that things may change. We need each other competitions and awards is important. "

Rijkaard asked his players humility in the workplace and warned that "my experience tells me that in football, if a team wants to prove something, too failed to nothing. When salts to make a difference, but rarely achieve. We must help colleagues do the dirty work, fight, have a good attitude and mentality. "

"Mourinho is one of the best coaches'

Rijkaard was not offended even less when asked about Jose Mourinho and identified him as "one of the best coaches in recent times." The Dutch 'helped' Txiki Begiristain you need to establish a list of futures and also mentioned the names of "Fabio Capello, Juande Ramos and Guus Hiddink, who are the coach is who have worked better and more successful in recent times ". In addition, Rijkaard has not clarified that "nothing against" the Portuguese coach, who had serious differences in the various clashes in recent years in the Champions League with Chelsea.

"I still can not be compared with Maradona"

The Dutch coach said that "hopefully" Messi may come someday to be as good as Maradona, but stated that it is too early to make comparisons: "Maradona has already experienced everything from some very early youth to have a maturity and even Messi is young and is working to finish his career. It is better to wait that Messi has that age and experience. " Without wishing to take up the flaws of the young star, Diego Rijkaard stressed that "had a vision for the game, a final pass to him was in a very complete player."

"Bojan is ready to go to the Euro"

Although the Linyola stayed with the desire to debut with Spain to France, Rijkaard said that the forthcoming Euro "I see it prepared and, although still young, their intelligence seems to have older. This is a player who can operate in any computer. " The Dutch had opted for the strong scorer, who has given many minutes in his first season in the first team, though still only about 17 years in age youth.

"Being selfish, I would prefer that he was here"

Samuel Eto'o was classified yesterday for the finals of the African Cup, a story that leave a sour taste in the coach barcelonista. "I am delighted by Samuel who is contesting the Africa Cup and I wish him well, but for us it is an important player. It is a goal and we all know that. Being selfish, it would have been better if he were here, but on the other hand I know that is an important tournament for him and his country, "said the technician of the table blaugrana.
