There aren't a lot of sources more reliable than the Washington Post's Steve Goff, and according to him the Los Angeles Galaxy have made a very real effort to acquire AC Milan's Ronaldinho. In fact, their pursuit is now at the point that the Galaxy "doesn't want to wait any longer," according to Goff's source, and are just waiting for Ronaldinho to make a decision about his intentions to join MLS.
Los Angeles Galaxy Reportedly Serious About Acquiring Ronaldinho
The one-time Ballon d’Or winner has somewhat fallen out of favor in Milan, where he hasn’t started a Serie A match since Oct. 16 and hasn’t scored a regular season goal all season. That five-match stretch has included three straight in which he didn’t play.
Still, it's no wonder why the Galaxy would be pursuing one of the most famous players in the world. Not only would he be guaranteed to sell some tickets, he could fit in nicely with an offense that already features David Beckham, Landon Donovan and Edson Buddle.
The main stumbling block - considering money is no object at this point - is whether or not he’s willing to come to MLS. Ronaldinho is just 30 and is reportedly drawing interest from LIverpool, as well.
