Ronaldinho, former Rossoneri player, was interviewed by La Gazzetta dello Sport ahead of his return to the pitch wearing the Ravenna shirt.
Who will be the new Ronaldinho?
"I don't like making comparisons. There are many young players I really like who can do well: just look at the Brazilians…"
Are you also thinking about Endrick? He is liked by Milan and Roma: would he be suited to Serie A?
"Of course. He is a young player who can play anywhere in the world. He has played in many leagues and done well, in France, Brazil and Spain. He is very young and can play and do well, yes..."
Why has Ronaldinho returned?
"Because of the friendship we have with Ignazio Cipriani (Ravenna's president, ed.) and because of the things we want for the future. Will I put on a show? I am here to experience a particular, unique and special moment in my life, and I think that for the other footballers too, perhaps, or I hope, it will be a special day."
What still drives you to play? Ronaldinho said:
"I started many years ago and when I finished, I looked back and realised: I had won everything. Now I have the opportunity to do something again in football. This makes me happy, also because I can give the fans a nice day, experiencing the beginning of this wonderful adventure with joy. I only hope that we can all spend a lovely day together."
