Man Utd in Ronaldinho pole


Ronaldinho is currently in Brazil
Paris St Germain have revealed the club remain locked in talks over the future of Brazilian striker Ronaldinho.
Earlier on Saturday, Barcelona told BBC Sport that Manchester United were favourites to the sign the World Cup winner.

PSG president Francis Graille told <a href="http://www.leparisien.com" target="_blank">www.leparisien.com</a> that no deal would be reached this weekend.

"The discussions will continue this weekend but no decisive step forward will be made before Monday," he said.

United have emerged in pole position to sign the 24-year-old from PSG despite interest from Chelsea and Barcelona.

It is thought that the Premiership champions have offered a £19.3m package to the French club, with £15m to be paid up front and the rest dependent on United's success on the field.

"I have been told that Manchester United have made a higher offer," Barcelona vice-president Sandro Rosell told this website.

"We have two advantages. The city of Barcelona and the magnificence of the club.

"We are asking players to come only if they are committed to the club. If it is only about money we would prefer him to go to United.

"He can make money in Manchester, but if he understands what it means to play for Barcelona and a country like Catalonia then he is more than welcome.

"We will not match United's personal terms. It's about the player's commitment, it's not about money. Maybe we are too romantic."

The Old Trafford club declined to make any formal comment about Ronaldinho on Friday when contacted by this website.

Stock market rules dictate that United cannot reveal any details of a transfer which might affect the club's share price.

Officials at Old Trafford are keen to clinch the deal before the club embark on their pre-season tour of the United States.

Sir Alex Ferguson's side will visit Seattle, Los Angeles, New York and Philadelphia during their 16-day tour, which takes in matches against Celtic, Mexican outfit Club America, Juventus and Barcelona.

The player's agent, Roberto Assis, claimed that the Brazilian is determined to play for Manchester United, where he would be guaranteed Champions League football next season.

"Ronaldinho wants to go to Manchester United, so at the moment it's just a question of waiting for the deal to be completed," he said.
 
Bit of a mad bump here, but I'm gonna come right out and say he would be a class signing for a year or two ! Him alongside Fellaini, Carrick sitting behind would be a joy!
 
Definitely worth the 10 year bump...
 
Harsh, but a line has now been drawn.
 
Wait, the Ronaldinho transfer thread in 2003 was just three posts long? The muppets have come a long way...
 
Surprised no one has come up with the classic: "It's a world cup year, Ronaldinho will want to prove himself"...bla bla bla.

He's one of my favouritest (is that a word?) players ever, and for that reason alone, I'll second!

He first needs to prove himself in Europe before we should consider him. Too much of a gamble with these unproven Brazilians.

Better?
