Ronaldinho burning to be Red Devil
31/05/2003 - 8:00:44 pm

Brazilian ace Ronaldinho claims he has a “burning desire to play for Manchester United”.

Ronaldinho, 23, has been linked with a summer move from Paris Saint Germain to Old Trafford and clearly relishes the prospect of joining the Premiership champions.

“I admire Manchester United,” Ronaldinho tells tomorrow’s Independent on Sunday, “and I love watching them play. Of course I would like to be at a great club like that – anybody would.

“The idea of joining Manchester United makes me dream, because they are a big, successful club and play my kind of football. I have a burning desire to be involved with a club that plays in big games all the time.”

Ronaldinho, who can play as a wide player or in his preferred role behind the front man, has no worries about adjusting to Premiership football having seen Arsenal midfielder Gilberto Silva make the transition, and cannot wait to play Champions League football.

“I must admit that I look at that competition and it makes me desperate to get involved. It’s like being a kid by a pool – you just want to jump in.”

Well this is looking more and more like a done deal as time goes on. Maybe we'll know for definite in a few weeks..


Its interesting to hear Ronny say that "I look at that competition and it makes me desperate to get involved." which is very much the contrast to what the press report Kewell feels like... Maybe that will be the telling factor regarding who will move to us this summer?

It's understandable that he feels desperate, stuck in a club like PSG.

Same can be said about Leeds though. At least PSG have got some European football to look forward to next season, albeit the UEFA cup...

PSG said that no decision would be made about Ronny until after their cup final. Not sure but i think that it was on the 30th of May and if so its over, any1 heard anything new out of PSG camp about the deal?
