Ronaldo Fenomeno

Ronaldo has yet to lift up the Champions League trophy and most people said that who would be back in Europe just for that. However, that is no longer the case as Ronaldo has expressed his desire with the team that has nurtured him back to full fitness.

Ronaldo told the Bem Amigos Show: “If everything is okay, I want to stay [at Flamengo].

“I’ve been in Europe for 16 years. Flamengo are my favourite, but I don’t want to play there as a favour. I want to deserve to play there.”

However, Ronnie hinted that he may be ready to quit the game unless he can reach a decent level of fitness; he continued:”I could hang up the boots. If I think I am not fine, I will retire. It’s useless if you are physically fit but you are not fast. I already lost some weight but I must lose more.”

Although he has given up on Europe he has not given up on playing for Brazil in 2012.

“I am a wounded soldier who is recovering, but not dead. The national team is part of my life. I have big history with it, with a number of titles and defeats. I am making a big sacrifice and I do dream of the national team,” added Ronaldo.

If Ronaldo retires he will become one of best strikers to have played the game. His scoring tally in the first ten years of his career was nearly a goal per game.
