author:Sports TOPs

Before Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo, Ronaldinho was the guide of the direction of football, a man who didn't care about the number of goals scored, he was only on the pitch to entertain himself and others.

Xiao Luo was crowned king at Camp Nou and fell from the altar at Camp Nou, and the days before that were unconsciously forgotten. In the Parc des Princes in Paris, Little Luo cai truly became the most popular player in the world.

Ronaldinho's great Paris years: a time that is easily forgotten

After the 1999 Copa America shined, Gremio fans had to accept the fate of Ronaldo leaving for Europe, with Inter wanting to combine them, but they faced competition from Arsenal and Barca at the same time.

The final result was unexpected, Xiao Luo gave up all the giants and went to Ligue 1 to join Paris Saint-Germain, such a choice is not difficult to understand, in the fiercely competitive Brazilian team, in order to reach the World Cup roster, must have a stable performance at the club.

However, the transfer process did not go well, and in December 2000, the grand Paris officially announced the signing of Ronaldo, but it was through the cooperation between the player and the agent that he bypassed Gremio. Eventually, the transfer was put on FIFA arbitration, and Little Luo was also hidden by Gremio for several months.

In the end, Ronaldo successfully joined the Ligue 1 team, and Paris paid a penalty to Gremio and showed enough sincerity to sell Robert, the team's top attacker at the time, to Newcastle United, just to give Little Roton a place.

At that time, the captain of the team was Pochettino, and there were big stars such as Heinze and Anelka in the lineup, and Okocha was also in the same position as Xiao Luo, which was also full of ornamentation.

"He's like my brother," the Nigerian said of Xiao Luo, "I realized he was so talented, he just needed someone to guide him." "Before the Brazilian, Okocha was a player that kids around the world wanted to emulate.

If it weren't for Okocha, perhaps the world would never have seen Ronaldinho, who combines practicality and ornamentation perfectly, "he tried to imitate some of my techniques and dribbling. ”

Watching all the goals scored by Luo during his time at the Parc des Princes, each time going further, his hair getting longer and longer, and also more and more confident. In early 2002, people really saw for the first time that Luo Would become the world's top player. Okocha returned home to compete, Anelka went to Liverpool, and the only person who could rely on Paris was Ronaldo Jr.

Ronaldinho had to step up and in a month's time he scored six goals in six games: two penalties, two iconic free kicks and two perfect personal performances. Luo Jr. ran wild from his own half with the ball, dodging the last defender and easily scoring the ball, which became his signature performance.

After the World Cup in South Korea and Japan, Luo, who was on the next level, finally realized that he was leaving, especially since he began to participate in frequent social activities, which led to the dissatisfaction of the team management and head coach Fernandez, "Since he returned from the World Cup, he has been doing his own thing", a big Paris player said in a 2003 interview, Xiao Luo has become a hindrance to the team, "he has become very arrogant." ”

After the Christmas holiday, Ronaldinho was five days late and the team struggled. Laporta, who is playing the media card for the barca presidency, has keenly seized the opportunity, saying in an interview that once he is elected, he will bring one of David Beckham, Henry and Ronaldo Jr. to the team.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that compared to Henry, who is in the Premier League, and Xiao Bei, whose style is completely incompatible with the team's traditional playing style, Xiao Luo is LaPorta's number one target.

After beating Manchester United, Barca managed to sign a near-mature Ronaldo. The Brazilian, who finished only 11th in Ligue 1 in his final season in Greater Paris, turned away without hesitation, leaving behind only an angry coach and teammates, as well as thousands of admirers. At Camp Nou, Luo Jr. was on top of the world, and it was his golden years.
