AC Milan in this era has not yet fallen into the doldrums, and as a team with a long history and honors, it has a great attraction for the best talent in the world. Let alone...... If Ricardo remembers correctly, in the current 02-03 season, AC Milan will once again lift the European Champions League and stand at the top of Europe.

And Kaka, in the future, also won his Ballon d'Or and World Footballer of the Year at AC Milan.

Kaka continued to smile wryly: "But I want to join Inter Milan, I want to play next to Ronaldo. ”

"Hey, I warn you, Ronaldo's position is mine, you just go to AC Milan obediently!" Ricardo said half-jokingly.

"The fact that Inter Milan have expressed interest in me is also there, but there is no substantive offer, and AC Milan have already offered my agent a contract that I can't refuse."

Kaka really regarded Licardo as a friend, so he said this privacy. You know, AC Milan did not go through Sao Paulo and directly contacted Kaka privately, which is against the law.

If the news is leaked, AC Milan will definitely be punished, and Kaka's time in Sao Paulo will also be difficult.

"So what the hell do you think?" As for whether Kaka will definitely go to AC Milan, Ricardo is not completely sure, after all, even Ronaldo did not join Real Madrid this year, and many things have changed.

In fact, despite remembering many of the outcome, Ricardo didn't even dare to bet on the game, because everything on the football field is so fast-moving that a butterfly's flapping wings can turn a shot on the post into a goal and completely change the outcome of a game.

Not to mention transfers. The human heart is the most unpredictable.

Kaka shook his head slightly, his handsome face showing confusion: "AC Milan is also a great team, like you said, when they call me, I can't easily say 'no'. When I got home after yesterday's game, Leonardo called me and personally persuaded me to join AC Milan. ”

Without him explaining, Ricardo also knew who Leonardo was. There are many people named Leonardo, but the one mentioned by Kaka is a Brazilian legend who played for AC Milan and was the hero of Brazil's victory in the 94 World Cup.

Leonardo has just retired at this time and will continue to be the manager of AC Milan and Inter Milan in the future. During his tenure as sports director in Grand Paris, he helped Grand Paris poach half of the superstars in Serie A.

"Then you can go," said Licardo with a smile, "and then you and I will be able to play in the Milan derby, it's exciting to think about." ”

"I can't get excited, especially when Ronaldo is on your side." Kaka shook his head and said in a half-joking tone.

After a pause, he added: "AC Milan want me to join in the winter window. ”

Without thinking, Ricardo said, "It's better not to." ”

"Why?" Kaka's eyes didn't look confused, just curious about what kind of answer Ricardo would provide. Apparently, he himself has already made his decision.

Li Cardo smiled: "Joining in the winter window gives you too little time to adapt, which is not good for you." Serie A is a mature league that is not tolerant of newcomers, and if you can't get your feet on your feet at the start, it will only get harder and harder in the future. If you think about it, even Bergkamp, Robert. Geniuses like Carlos have problems with adaptability. Can you guarantee that you will settle into the team quickly? And, don't you want to join me in taking an honor or two for São Paulo and then leaving? Stay half a season longer! ”

A smile appeared on Kaka's face: "Thank you for your opinion, I will seriously consider it." ”

"That's good," said Ricardo, "hurry up, let's go head-to-head." ”

……

After a short break, Sao Paulo is back on their way to take on Gremio away. Founded in 1903, Gremio is one of Brazil's 13 giants, having won the Copa Libertadores twice.

However, since Ronaldinho's departure, Gremio has been in decline, but they still have the quality to enter the playoffs and should not be underestimated.

At the Stadio Olimpic, Gremio burst into a strong fight, and in the opening seven minutes, they played a delicate combination in the middle, Tinga and Emerson passed in succession, Tinga burst into the box, deceived Gian with a fake shot, and volleyed hard into the near corner of the goal, giving Gremio a good start.

Sao Paulo, who were behind the scoreline, did not panic, they showed a strong team temperament and launched an attack in an orderly manner.

Led by Ricardo, Ricardinho and Kaka, they organised their attacks in a tight and methodical manner and continued to threaten Gremio's penalty area.

In the 14th minute, Ricardo and Kaka successfully connected in the front field and played a 2-on-1 combination, and Kaka handed the ball to Fabiano in the penalty area. Fabiano turned and fired into goal, causing Gremio goalkeeper Dan Ray to save the ball and Ricardinho followed up with the equaliser for Sao Paulo.

Sao Paulo's morale was even higher, and several threatening attacks were launched in succession, and Kaka's sudden cold arrow at the top of the arc slid out of the goal, sending Gremio's defence into a cold sweat; In the 28th minute, Ricardo crossed from the bottom, and Fabiano hit the goal with a header, but it was slightly wide again.

It wasn't until the 41st minute that Sao Paulo scored again.

This time it was Kaka's long-range shot again, but unfortunately it was too straight and was firmly held by Gremio goalkeeper Dan Erray, who immediately threw the ball in his hand to launch a fast attack, but there was a mistake, and the ball flew straight towards Ricardo.

Ricardo didn't stop the ball and fired straight at the ball, which was so powerful from 35 yards out that Dan Erray couldn't make a save.

With a score of 2:1, Sao Paulo went into the second half comfortably.

After a half-time adjustment, Gremio regained their form, and they frequently attacked the goal of Sao Paulo, who shrank down under Osvaldo's instructions.

After all, defense is not Sao Paulo's strong point, in the 78th minute of the game, Gremio made a successful steal in front, Marquis immediately plugged, and the teenager Bruno received the ball and shook off the angle and volleyed hard, and the football drilled into the upper right corner of the goal, leaving Cheney helpless.

Osvaldo was not willing to get 3 points into 1 point, so he did not replace Ricardo and Kaka, hoping that they can create another miracle.

However, Ricardo still had fitness problems and suffered a calf muscle strain in a collision with an opposition defender in the 85th minute, forcing Sao Paulo to play with 10 men in the last minute.

Fortunately, Gremio also lacked follow-up, and the two sides maintained the score at 2:2, taking away a point each.

Upon returning to the Brafonta base, the team doctor immediately examined Ricardo in detail, but fortunately his injuries were not serious and it only took a few days to recover.
