According to the "Marca Newspaper", former Barca star Rivaldo said that if Real Madrid invited him to join that year, then he would go to the Galaxy to play.
Rivaldo said: "If I work with Ronaldo at Real Madrid, we will form an attacking combination that will make the opponent feel frightened. We've proven that at the Brazilian national team and if we could get more time to cultivate chemistry between each other at the club, then we'd be even more deadly. ”
"No matter what kind of team you face, my combination with Ronaldo will make the opposing defender feel scared. In the summer of 2002, Real Madrid was very interested in me, and then Ronaldo signed with Real Madrid, and if we could have joined at that time, it would have been incredible. ”
"I will never turn down Real Madrid for having played for Barca, even though I have a good relationship with Barca and they will always be my home team in Europe. I know very well that if I signed with Real Madrid, the situation would be similar to Figo at that time, but the deal did not happen in the end. ”
