Kean seems to have dug this up again.

But Kean said on Friday: "No it's not over, as far as I'm aware that hasn't happened. It seems to have gone back on, and gone a little bit more positive in the last 24 hours rather than negative which is encouraging.

Edit - beaten to it !

Another edit - bigger quote

He said: "A bid has not got in yet but something might happen in the next 24 hours where a bid might go in.

"We first have to figure out what they are happy to receive and if it's over our value then it will obviously die but if it's not hopefully it will progress."

I saw it too. Bizarre. When are they quoting him from? To all the world it looks like in the last 24 hours Ronaldinho has pretty much made his mind up and Kean is saying we are closer than before? Surely the quote is old...or he's been asked to keep the publicity behind the bid alive when given the chance.

And I thought his contract had been terminated? If so, why would we still be talking about making an offer? Apologies if this has been covered earlier, not read the whole thread yet.

Does anyone know what question brought this up anyway? I wonder how far they have come.

From the quotes it looks like Rovers has been in touch with the agent and/or Ronnie himself.

They asked Kean is it all over on the Ronaldinho front.

A few minutes ago

The Guild gives as already settled by negotiation and contracting of Ronaldinho is already assembling the framework for the feast that marks the return of former world's best club that has revealed.

This morning, the board began to assemble the apparatus for a presentation party on the lawn of the Olympic stadium. Companies have begun to install sound equipment in place.

"It will be an event that features the importance of the moment. What's more symbolic of it all is the return home of Ronaldinho," said marketing director Grêmio, Paulo Cesar Verardi, with Radio Gaucha.

The intention of the board tricolor is making the announcement and celebration in the late afternoon, but still no confirmation by the representative of Ronaldinho on the deal has been closed.

Yesterday, the player's agent and brother Roberto de Assis Moreira, said during a news conference in Rio, that negotiation with Gremio, Flamengo and Palmeiras still last until Tuesday or Wednesday of next week.

Despite the player has been on the fence about his fate, principals expressed optimism has faded with the hiring.

Shortly after the conference in Rio, Vice football club, Antonio Vicente Martins, gave a show of confidence in a favorable outcome at the Guild by stating that the terms of the contract had been closed and that the player's lawyers are in Porto Alegre not in the seats of competing trading clauses.

A bit of artistic licence by SSN there Mark? I could not find a quote in the Sky article where Kean says he is confident of signing Ronnie

http://www.skysports.com/story/0,19528,11661_6639758,00.html

To be fair that article is from the press conf earlier today. I thought Kean was talking on SSN a little while ago (another interview..?)

I have not seen it though, so can't be sure of what is the correct quote. For me, Ronnie is a possibility untill he is confirmed as signed by someone else.

Watching SSN on the telly, that's almost word for word what it said on the text at the bottom. Have they interviewed him since the press conference or picked up a quote from elsewhere perhaps?
