Diego Tardelli looking forward to playing with Ronaldinho at Atlético Mineiro

Diego Tardelli has revealed his excitement at the prospect of playing with his idol Ronaldinho after re-signing for Atlético Mineiro.

Tardelli, 27, completed his move back to Atlético, where he spent two season from 2009-2011, last week for €5.25million from Al-Gharafa and is hopeful he can follow Ronaldinho’s example and get back into the Brazil national team.

“It is an honour to play alongside Ronaldinho,” he told Globo Esporte.

“I already swapped shirts with him, and now I can play alongside a world icon. He is intelligent, and I think I know the pitch. I think it will not be difficult, no.

“This was a goal for me to return. At the right moment, a good moment for Atlético-MG. I was with Dunga and Mano. Now it will depend on me to do well in this Libertadores and the Brasileirão. It depends on me.”

And Tardelli revealed his superstitious side by saying that he always does well in odd years.

“I carry it with me always. My major titles and individual titles are in odd years. It has everything to be again this year. My goal is to celebrate a major trophy in 2013.”

New Grêmio signing Hernán Barcos: It was time to leave Palmeiras


New Grêmio signing Hernán Barcos believes it was time to leave recently relegated Palmeiras and hopes to increase his chances of an international call-up from Argentina following the move.

The 28-year-old striker had looked to stay at Palmeiras despite their demotion to Serie B last season but Grêmio moved quickly to bring in the striker before the registration process for the Copa Libertadores closes on Tuesday.

The Argentine striker has signed a three-year contract with the Porto Alegre club, who, along with a payment of $2million, have sent Marcelo Moreno, Léo Gago, Vilson, Rondinelly and Leandro to Palmeiras on loan as part of the deal.

Barcos has stated that he is leaving the Verdão with a heavy heart but believes the solution was best for both clubs.

He said: "I´ve always said that I would leave the club if a great offer came for me. We concluded that Palmeiras would be the best solution. It is time to go.

"Obviously, I am sad and upset because I still had a lot to do here. It was not an easy decision to make.

"I also lost some visibility for the Argentine selection and I hope that I can catch up at Grêmio."

Barcos was in impressive form for Palmeiras last season, helping the Verdão win the Copa do Brasil and scoring 28 goals in 55 appearances over the course of the season.

Jeg er skuffet over, at du FAS kalder Riquelme den sidste ægte 10´er.

El Payaso?

Ah jo men Roman har teknikken, overblikket, arrogancen, large than life and club personligheden...dramaet, jeg gider ikke mere, jo jeg gør, osv....

Jamen, jeg er helt enig, FAS. Klovnen har mistet meget og har aldrig haft attituden. Han er for god af sig.

EL LEON GUARANI<3

sådan passionen unge mand, mandsmod...og bliv ved indtil dommeren fløjter af....;-)
