Most of the Italians seem unhappy about Del Piero's decision to come to India in relation to the Italian Marines undergoing trial in Kochi...Even on his official page Del Piero made a statement about this.He had this to say...
I know that my choice to go and play in India has raised some doubts about the relationship between Italy and India, related to the story of the two marines held there. Having Said that I don't think i am the only Italian who has relations with India for professional reasons, I know that what I do has an impact on broader media: I would gratefully accept the responsibilities that my role entails.
In this case I am aware and satisfied with my choice, I'm not going to a country "hostile" and the last thing I would want is a exploitation of my role, and especially that sport becomes a means used to divide rather than to unite. As an Italian, as all my fellow countrymen, I am not insensitive to the story of our marines and I hope it comes soon to a positive conclusion for them, that is just.
I'm a football player, I will go to India to play football, to honor my sport and doing what's right now i am happy to do: bring a positive message combined with values of sport and to spread football in countries far from the traditional routes of the ball. Like India with its "Indian Super League".
Brazilian Legend and two time FIFA Footballer of the year Ronaldinho Gaúcho has been signed a two year contract with Chennai Titans on a 4.6 million Euro Deal !
You better watch out You better not cry You better not pout I'm telling you why Ronaldinho is coming to town Ronaldinho is coming to town Ronaldinho is coming to town
one of my favourite players along with Zola and Pirlo
4.6 million?? I really doubt it. His market value is worth 1.5 million. How will someone on earth pay him so much way above his MV.
Anyways, 36 crores may sound too big. But, most of it will be covered when the player goes to MLS on loan in the January Window. That is two january windows. Next year and after that. Lets see.
Hope its true. Its gonna be Boom-faad to have these players here. ISL Rocks!!
All the criticism aside, I think this is really really big. Ronaldinho is not a fading star or something, a real big name, plays for top Brazilian league side. Wow!
