Liverpool Transfers: 10 Ridiculous Rumours That Never Came Off

10. Ronaldinho

RonaldinhoSource: Daily Mail Every single year seems to bring rumours of a move for the once fantastic Brazilian. Not too long in ago, he apparently almost ended up at Blackburn! However over his many years of falling out and moving club, he has been linked with Liverpool on several occasions. The most concrete of these probably came in 2010 when he was at AC Milan. With the January transfer window rapidly approaching Ronaldinho looked set to leave the club and with Liverpool having money to splash that seemed a possible destination. In the end nothing came of it and he trotted off back to Brazil with Flamengo where he engaged in all kind of mishaps, from having the club asking fans if they saw him on nights out to tell the club so they could get him home and some less than sensible behaviour involving a webcam. That window Liverpool ended up signing Carroll and Suarez and looking back a deal for Ronaldinho would never really have made sense. Ronaldinho would have demanded mega wages, that especially now the club wouldn€™t have been able to afford. Also Liverpool were looking to buy young players to build for the clubs long term future. The Brazilian€™s interest in football also seemed to be waning and I don€™t think Liverpool would have got much out of him. It would have been a whole lot of fun to have him in the Premiership but it was never going to happen, let€™s just leave him to enjoy his semi-retirement in Brazil.
