Ahead of tomorrow evening’s “Game for Peace” at the Stadio Olimpico in Rome, former Barcelona and Milan star Ronaldinho has been speaking to La Gazzetta dello Sport. The Brazilian legend began by giving his opinion on new Inter striker and fellow countryman Gabigol, explaining that; “Congratulations to Inter for the purchase of Gabigol. He is one of the best young talents around. Brazilians expect so much from him, we expect him to make history”.
 

ON MILAN: “I still have many friends at the club and I hope they can return to the top very soon”.
 

ON PELE-MARADONA: “As far as I’m concerned I’m happy with what I’ve achieved in the game but if we are talking about Pele or Maradona, I would have loved to have seen them both in action. It’s for this reason that we have to say they were the greatest ever”.  

ON TOTTI: Francesco is one of the greatest in the history of Italian football. It’s a real honour for me to play on the same field tomorrow evening.
