Ronnie laughs off Pelè forecastRonaldo has reacted with good humour to Pelè’s suggestion that he may never return to football after his horror injury.
The Seleção star’s career is in jeopardy after he severed a tendon in his knee during Milan’s game against Livorno in February.
After a successful operation in Paris, the 31-year-old has begun the pain-staking process of re-educating his knee and may return to the pitch within the next year if things go according to plan.
However, Brazilian legend Pelè recently suggested that Ronnie would never be the same player again – a comment that El Fenomeno has taken with a pinch of salt.
“I am glad that he said I would never return because his predictions are always wrong,†Ronaldo told O Rei. (IMG:

“Everyone knows that Pelè isn’t any good at forecasting things – they exact opposite always happens.
“I’m not angry – it doesn’t bother me. Pelè is an absolute idol and he gets asked questions about everything, so sometimes he gets himself into trouble trying to answer on difficult topics.â€
