Ronnie rubbishes exit rumours
Ronaldinho has refuted rumours that he could leave Barcelona in the
summer after being linked to both Chelsea and Milan.
The Brazilian superstar claims he has no intention of quitting the
Catalan club, where he has enjoyed unrivalled success and is
adamant that he is only focused on winning more trophies at Camp
Nou.
Despite not wanting to move, Ronaldinho admitted he is flattered
that Chelsea are watching and had some kind words for the reigning
Premiership champions.
"It is a great club and it is always good to know that your work is
being seen and that people appreciate it," he said.
"But the only thing I am thinking about is Barca and I want to do
everything I can to continue to help the team."
Speculation in Italy continues to link the former Paris Saint
Germain playmaker with a move to Milan, but he reiterated his claim
that he is enjoying life with the Blaugrana.
"Now I am only focusing on Barca because I am very happy here," he
continued. "I have not considered playing for any other club and I
want to finish the season like the last couple of seasons, playing
well and winning titles."
The rumours have been growing as it has been stated in the Italian
press that Milan are keen to link Ronaldinho up with Ronaldo,
should they capture the striker from Real Madrid.
But Ronaldinho is insistent that he has no plans to swap La Liga
for Serie A.
"Not at all, I have just said that my mind is only concentrated on
Barcelona and the only thing I think about is staying here," he
concluded.
In recent weeks, Ronaldinho has become the target of some criticism
as his form appears to have fallen away and pundits have blamed his
lack of a rest last summer following World Cup exertions.
