Milan have long been admirers of the Barcelona star, but their interest was believed to have waned in recent weeks.On the other hand the 27-year-old has emerged as a confirmed transfer target for Inter, following their recent mammoth sponsorship deal with Nike.
Nerazzurri boss Roberto Mancini admitted over the weekend that he would like to sign the Brazilian.
“Nobody believed me when I talked about Ronaldinho,” Mancio said during a press conference.
“I don’t think it would be a problem to have him settle into the squad. Ronaldinho is a great player and, aside from his behaviour, the important thing is that a champion steps on to the field and makes the difference. He almost always does that.”
The ‘Corriere’ today claim that Milan are in fact in pole position to land Ronaldinho as they have agreed for the playmaker to have complete control over his image rights.
However Inter are desperate to get their man and could now up the stakes. The club are currently involved in negotiations with Ronaldinho’s brother and agent Roberto de Assis.
This is shaping up to be one epic transfer saga between the city rivals
