When Robinho arrived at Real Madrid in 2005, he used to referred
to his new teammate, Ronaldo as the President – a sign of his longstanding
respect for his fellow forward.
Robinho, who lists Ronaldo as his main role model, says he has always been able
to rely on his fellow forward for support in the past. And he says it is now
time for him to reciprocate.
"I speak from my heart when I say that I wish Ronaldo all the best. He has
always been a great friend,” Robinho told Fobazo. “He has always been a big
source of strength for me, so now it is time for me to do the same for him.”
And Robinho is confident that it is only a matter of time before Ronaldo is back
performing at the highest level.
"I don’t have the slightest doubt that he’s going to come through this. Ronaldo
is a big character, with great force of will, and he will give everything to get
what he wants. He will soon be back to being the great player he always was,” he
added. |
