FENERBAHCE DENIES RONALDO TRANSFER..

FENERBAHCE DENIES RONALDO TRANSFER..
Fenerbahce Istanbul on Wednesday dismissed reports they were after Brazil striker Ronaldo. The Turkish football champions said in a statement on their website that they were not in talks with Ronaldo and that they had not sent a 9-million-euros (12 million dollars) guarantee to his current club AC Milan.

Ronaldo joined Milan in the winter transfer window from Real Madrid.

Turkish champions Fenerbahce are close to the signing of Brazilian striker Ronaldo, chairman Aziz Yildirim has revealed.

The Istanbul giants signed full back Roberto Carlos on a two-year deal on Tuesday, and according to Yildirim, he could soon be joined by his compatriot Ronaldo, for whom Fenerbahce have submitted an offer of around nine million euros to Milan.

"A transfer will soon come that will put that of Roberto Carlos in the shade. Ronaldo is a world star and would fit in very well with us. It's no secret any more that we are close to [signing] him." Yildirim told Eurosport.

Fener have won the Turkish Super League in three of the last four seasons, though have struggled to make any impact on the European stage. With the signing of Roberto Carlos and possibly Ronaldo, they are hoping to finally progress ion the Champions League.

"The national title is no longer enough for us," Yildirim added. "We want to make waves at last in the Champions League, and we'll only do that by signing superstars."

Should Milan succeed in tempting Andriy Shevchenko back to the San Siro, they could well allow Ronaldo to move on, despite only having signed him from Real Madrid in January.

Fenerbahce are ready to offer Ronaldo a wage of 4 million euros per year, and the striker could also be tempted by the chance to link up not only with Roberto Carlos, but also fellow Brazilians Alex de Souza, Edu Dracena, Marco Aurelio and Deivid de Souza, and his coach would be none other than Brazilian legend Zico.

Thousands greet Carlos in Turkey
Thousands of fans cheered Roberto Carlos on Tuesday as the Brazilian full-back formally signed with Turkish champions Fenerbahce.

At a largely ceremonial event at the Sukru Saracoglu stadium on the city's Asian side, Carlos, flanked by members of the Fenerbahce board, signed the deal for the cameras, clad in the Istanbul club's navy and gold strip.

"I am very proud to be wearing this strip," the 34-year-old said through a translator. "My dream is to win the UEFA Cup in this strip."

"Fenerbahce are the greatest, Fenerbahce are the champions," he said in Turkish as fans shouted "I love you Carlos."

Fenerbahce have not disclosed the duration or value of the contract, but Turkish newspapers reported that the club will pay Carlos four millions euros (5.3 million dollars) a year for two years and he will be eligible for bonuses totalling an additional one million euros (1.3 million dollars) a year.

Carlos will join four other Brazilian players at Fenerbahce which Brazilian football legend Zico has been coaching since 2006.

Fenerbahce began chasing Carlos last year, but the former international decided to stay on with Spanish giants Real Madrid until the end of his contract.
