One of the most interested teams was Chelsea FC, who were looking to fill their striker position. 

Ronaldinho is happy to stay in Barcelona: "You cannot put a price on the happiness and joy I am feeling right now." He transferred from [[w:Paris Saint-Germain|Paris Saint-Germain]] in 2003 for 17 million pounds becoming one of the biggest football starts in Spain. FIFA awarded him the prestigous title of "best football player in the world" in 2005.
