Ronaldinho 'not a gamble'

13 November 2008 - 05:35

AC Milan vice-president Adriano Galliani has insisted that signing Ronaldinho was 'never a gamble' and that he was sure the player would be a great signing for the club.

  • Chelsea to move for former Arsenal goalkeeper?
  • Former Chelsea boss to replace Erik ten Hag at Man Utd?

  • Galliani told La Gazzetta Dello Sport: "Ronaldinho was not a winning bet because we never wager on anything.



    "We buy players who we think are useful for our team and 'Dinho has proved to be so for Milan.



    "We never discovered Ronaldinho, he came here after having won a Ballon d'Or, a FIFA World Player of the Year, a World Cup, a Champions League, everything.



    "He wasn't an unknown youngster, he was just a champion going through a cloudy moment and we were convinced he would be able to overcome that."
