Rivaldo signs for.....

KdjaCL

The Qatar Football Association claim they have beaten Bolton and Celtic to the signature of Rivaldo.

Qatar FA technical director Manfred Honer said: "Rivaldo has signed for us. He has been here for three days and is finding a place to live.

"The move was all about money. It is what motivates the player.

"I can't reveal figures but if you're telling me Celtic and Bolton were willing to offer him £30,000 a week I can only say we're paying much more."

Rivaldo held talks with the Qatar FA on Monday but it had been thought unlikely that he would sign a deal with them.

The Brazilian had been told a move over there would end his international career.

Rivaldo had rejected the chance to join Celtic on trial, while Bolton were waiting for his response to a written contract offer and were favourites to sign him.

We all new Rivaldo was after the money anyway , but this wouldnt be the first time the Quater F.A. have released false statements .

When he first heard of the Celtic link he said he doesn't want to play in Scotland and if he did it would be with Rangers because they're a better team. Why then did he have talks with Celtic? He had talks with Bolton before hand and I can only presume he talked to Celtic to try and force Bolton to offer more, but big Sam wasn't falling for it. His agent linked him to ever club under the sun. He's hardly going to Quatar for a new challenge. I've never liked him since his little incident at WC2002.

eyerer

yeah that incident was a disgrace
and honestly why does he think rangers are the best team in scotland, they were a shambles this year

well foreign players think Rangers are the best team in Scotland because of : the Rangers pention plan (could some1 plz post a link ) . But it looks like Mcleish wants to end the plan
