Featured article of the month

Ronaldo de Assís Moreira (born March 21 1980 in Porto Alegre), commonly known as Ronaldinho, is a football player from Brazil, best known for his years at Spanish football club FC Barcelona. He became a naturalized Spanish citizen in January 2007.

Ronaldinho, meaning "little Ronaldo", is better known in Brazil by the nickname Ronaldinho Gaúcho, in order to distinguish him from Ronaldo (already called Ronaldinho in Brazil). However, upon Ronaldo's move to Europe, he began to be known simply as 'Ronaldo', thereby allowing Ronaldinho to drop Gaúcho and remain simply as 'Ronaldinho'.

Among his many achievements and accolades, Ronaldinho has been awarded the FIFA World Player of the Year award twice (2004, 2005), as well as the European Footballer of the Year award and the FIFPro World Player of the Year award twice (2005, 2006). He has downplayed suggestions that he is the best footballer in the world, telling FourFourTwo magazine, "I don't even feel I'm the best at Barça." Currently, he plays for FC Barcelona with a contract ending in 2010. Ronaldinho has not enjoyed a good 2007/08 season at Barcelona and is now reported to be looking for a new challenge. Manchester City are the club reportedly leading the race to sign Ronaldinho, with reports suggesting Ronaldinho is 'interested' in the challenge that Manchester City would provide.
