Cristiano Ronaldo once had high praise for the former footballer but may have since changed his tune
"If you think I'm good, just wait until you see Fabio Paim," said Ronaldo back in 2003. We have since been waiting all this time...
Yet 16 years later, after a torrid playing career in the game, Paim was put in prison for a year on drug trafficking charges,"I'm serious, it would make my dreams come true. I don't have a girlfriend, I'm single."Paim has since tried to contact Cristiano by jokingly admitting he should be given one of the his five Ballon d'Or trophies.
"If I speak about technique, I was better. I was a small Ronaldinho. But as we can see, it's not the technique that leads us to wherever."But yes at that time I was better than Cristiano. I believe he should give me one of his Ballon d'Ors!" Matthew is a Freelance Sports Journalist who also works for Manchester United, GOAL and Reach PLC. He supports Scunthorpe United.
