MIlan - Ronaldinho Rejected Man City

(Soccer365.com) AC Milan vice-president Adriano Galliani claims Brazilian ace Ronaldinho has rejected a move to Manchester City.

Ronaldinho is expected to leave Barcelona this summer after new coach Pep Guardiola informed the midfielder his services were no longer required at the Bernabeu.

City have been chasing the talented playmaker all summer and have already made the player an offer, but Ronaldinho's agent and brother claims a move to Milan is "90 percent likely".

Talks are ongoing, but Galliani concedes the 28-year-old's salary is an issue after Ronaldinho turned down a lucrative transfer to City.

"As for Ronaldinho, he's not in Guardiola's plans, so he has a different price," Galliani said.

"But the problem is the salary - to pay him his salary it would mean his arrival would not cost much. A loan? It depends on Barcelona.

"Ronaldinho rejected Man City's offer, who were ready to give him double what we had offered."

who cares about ronaldhinho, hes the most overrated player in the world. he was good three years a go, but now he just sucks.

I know ronaldinho can still be good like when I saw the bicycle kick a month a go I hope he does better in AC Milan

Ronaldinho was out of form this year due to injuries. He is still one of the best players in the world. The brief period he was healthy in the middle of the season he was doing great, he did have that bike and was creating space and opening passing lanes like only he can do.

I beleive Ronaldinho should go to Milan. After all, most of MIlans players are retireing soon, and Ronaldinho could be a great help to Milans success

Ronnie can still prove to be on the top of the world at only 28 yrs old. He will prove it in Milan

I think yous are all right apart from one comment, i have a fantasy about Ronaldinho pulling his self back up & that fantasy is slowly turning into reality. I believe he can do it & most people do, i think it's just that people haven't seen him break down before & they just couldn't take it but I've been a big fan of Barcelona for years & where ever Ronaldinho goes I'm sure he will be successful, he is the shinning name of soccer :)BARCELONA & MILAN FAN HEHE XO.

HELLO I POSTED THAT COMMENT WHY IS IT NAMED AFTER "HAIT4BRASIL" WTF :(
