Lyon Nabs Next Ronaldinho #7,294

By: chris | January 30th, 2008

It’s everyone’s favorite term: “the next this guy” or “next that guy”. Of all, Ronaldinho is probably the most compared simply because he held the title as world’s best for a prolonged stretch recently. Though I suspect the darkhorse is Patrick Vieira, and I’m convinced there are no less than 10,000 Next Vieira’s floating around Europe somewhere. Ederson is one of the more recent Next Dinho’s, but as you can see from the video, kid’s a serious talent. Lyon ponied up more cash than Roma and Valencia and kept him in France, for at least a few more years. Inara provides all the details in the best manner she could as she attempted valiantly to hide her disgust for this move.

Lyon already have the next Henry (Benzema), the next C. Ronaldo (Ben Arfa) and now with the next Ronaldinho the future of the team is looking pretty darn good.

Chris, there must be some hack article out there from the mid-90s calling Ronaldinho the next Vieira. We need to track this down. It would complete the circle, in an ouroboros/Lion King/eternal return sort of way.
