A world-renowned star joined a club recognized as a world champion. The result of this addition is a news boom. After announcing the signing of Ronaldinho Gaúcho, Flamengo gained attention in the international media, on FIFA's website, and even on the website of the player's former club, Milan.
The agreement between the parties took place at the end of last Monday (10.01) and news about the red-black feat has already started to pop up on the internet. The highest football authority commented that other clubs were interested in the star, but Ronaldinho "chose to sign with the Rio de Janeiro club".
A very cordial note was published on Milan's website. According to the club's management, Ronaldinho "remains a Flamengo fan, but the stripes on his shirt will no longer be the vertical stripes of Milan, but rather the horizontal stripes of Flamengo." The club from the Old Continent also wished the player good luck and stated that they will have only fond memories of him.
Among Europe's leading media outlets, there were many lines about Ronaldinho's deal with Brazil's most beloved club. In Italy, where the star played in recent seasons, "Corriere dello Sport" highlighted the deal in its main headline, describing the negotiations between Milan and Flamengo as "cordial and friendly." The English newspaper "The Sun," in turn, highlighted president Patricia Amorim's statement: "The project began the day I took office."
In the French newspaper "Le Monde," the article highlights Ronaldinho's intention to return to playing in his home country to get closer to competing in the 2014 World Cup. In Spain, "AS" quotes the player's statements, given exclusively to Flamengo's Official Website: "The fans can expect a lot of affection from me. I've already felt that feeling since my arrival in Rio de Janeiro. I can already imagine the stadium full. They can expect the best from me."
The Portuguese newspaper "A Bola" focused on the financial and marketing aspects, highlighting that Flamengo's financial forecasts "already point to the possibility of the club quadrupling the sale of official equipment and, also, to the possibility of the club's sponsorships increasing significantly".
Meanwhile, the German "Bild" traced a retrospective of the star's career, from Grêmio, through Barcelona, arriving at Milan and, now, Flamengo, wanting to fulfill "his last wish": to play the 2014 World Cup at home.
