Luis Rosemberg, the director of Corinthians, affirmed that the club are
so thrilled about the way Ronaldo has performed for them in the
Paulista State Championship that they are contemplating immortalising
his goal-getting exploits on the silver screen.
"We are thinking
about making a film about the return of Ronaldo. What Corinthians have
done in 2009 is like something from Hollywood," said Rosemberg.
Ronaldo,
who has scored eight goals in ten matches, starred for Corinthians in
the first leg of the final of the Paulista State Championship against
Santos on Sunday. 'The Phenomenon' scored two spectacular goals in the
3-1 win at the Vila Belmiro stadium.
Rosemberg stated that "the
sponsors are delighted and the telephone doesn't stop ringing" thanks
to the incredible form of the three-time FIFA World Footballer of the
Year.
He added, "His return is something to celebrate for the
whole of Brazil, even for the Santistas, who after the match, applauded
him. It was a magical moment for Brazilian society as a whole."
When
he returned to the field in March, Ronaldo hadn't played an official
match since the February 13, 2008, when he suffered a serious knee injury against Livorno when playing for AC Milan.
The
director regards Ronaldo's successful return to action as "one of the
greatest examples of courage" in Brazil, a country that has struggled
to cope with violence and poverty over the years.
