Siena offer Ronaldo lifeline Friday 31 October, 2008
Siena President Giovanni Lombardi Stronati is to give Brazilian star Ronaldo the opportunity to rebuild his career – at a cost of £80,000 a goal!
The 32-year-old striker is currently training with Flamengo after being released from Milan where he suffered yet another horrific knee injury.
“It’s an idea we are working on,” admitted Stronati. “They tell me that he is really thinking about retiring, but I would like to offer him one last chance.
“I spoke with his manager and I have proposed a contract of £80,000 a goal. I am willing to reduce myself to poverty, but the goals of Ronaldo could save Siena.
“My team plays well, [Marco] Giampaolo is a great Coach,” added an ebullient Stronati. “But we score little.”
Siena have found the net just seven times this season and host Fiorentina in a Tuscan derby on Sunday.
When asked if he was delusional to think a player of Ronaldo’s stature would consider joining Siena, Stronati replied: “The slogan is very simple: Ronaldo, come and try us.”
C4 =================================================
Its a Good Idea, cuz if Ronaldo gets injured again, the payment may be low or nothing. While Ronaldo also can get continous playing time.....
With his capability.. he could score shitloads.
