Roxburgh denies Ronaldinho link
August 2, 2014

Were you excited about all those Ronaldinho rumors this week? Did you think they were more than just Internet rubbish? Let Andy Roxburgh shed some light, as told to BigAppleSoccer:

"Nobody has ever approached us. We haven't been approached by anybody mentioning Ronaldinho. And the name suddenly cames at us and the answer is no."

Not convinced? What about the supposed meeting in Brazil?

"Who's that? Who's Red Bull representatives? Somebody who sells Red Bull?" Roxburgh said. "Who knows? All I'm saying is this, as the sporting director of this club, and I can speak also on behalf of my other colleagues in the business, we have not been approached about him. Nobody has offered us Ronaldinho. No one has said 'How much money?' I saw his name but I've never talked to Ronaldinho or his people or made any offers. And the answer is we wouldn't be doing it anyway. It's not a matter of did we or didn't we? Or who spoke to him or who didn't speak to him? A great player by the way, fantastic player by the way. He's not for here."

Straightforward enough?
