Ronaldinho imitated my skills as a youngster at PSG – Okocha

JayJay Okocha is regarded as the most talented and skilful player to come out of Africa by the media and colleagues of his during his playing days.

Ronaldinho is one of the best ever to play the game of football and one of the most entertaining. The dazzling Brazilian spent a year with JJ at PSG before Okocha left for the Premier League and Ronaldinho to Barcelona a year later.

Okocha has now made a claim that a young Ronaldinho imitated his skills and dribbles while they shared dressing room; “Ronaldinho tried to imitate some of my skills and dribbles, he was still a young player before I left for England and he joined Barcelona,” Okocha told On Time Sports, cited by KingFut.

Ronaldinho left PSG for Barcelona in 2003 where he went on to become one of the greatest, winning everything for Barcelona and winning the World player of the year twice while JJ never really hit the heights after leaving PSG.
