Barcelona rumour made me laugh - Ricardo Oliveira


Reports linking Ricardo Oliveira with a move to
Barcelona caused the Brazil striker amusement due to
inaccuracies over his representation.

Ricardo Oliveira confessed he laughed at speculation linking him
with a transfer to Barcelona.

Reports in Spain suggested that the brother of former Camp Nou
star Ronaldinho, Roberto de Assis Moreira, had offered Oliveira
to Barca, but the player is officially represented by the firm Goal
Sport Promotion.

The 35-year-old – who is enjoying a renaissance at Santos as
the highest scoring player in the Campeonato Brasileiro with 19
goals – was subsequently left amused by the reports.

"Unfortunately, football ends up generating a lot of speculation,
and some look to take advantage of that," Oliveira said on
SporTV.

"I saw it there and I laughed, because it came from someone
who does not work with me.

"It's a situation that has not affected me."

The former Valencia and Real Betis striker has again been
included in Dunga's Brazil squad for the next month's World Cup
2018 qualifiers against Argentina and Peru after netting in their
3-1 win over Venezuela last time out.
