Flamengo Fans Plan Voodoo To Put Curse On 'Traitor' Ronaldo


Flamengo fans have gone berzerk at seeing Ronaldo sign for Corinthians and some have gone as far as to suggest taking up black magic in order to curse the player.

The Brazilian finally landed a club on Tuesday afternoon after signing for the Sao Paulo-based side but Flamengo, the club which helped Ronaldo get back to shape have vented their fury.

"Why? Ronaldo always said he was a fan of ours and now he signs for another club," Jose Carlos Peruano told Globoesporte.



Peruano had set up a campaign to keep the striker at Flamengo but it failed.

"We are sad because we did so much for him and he has repaid us like that," added the fan.

The move has seen Corinthians laughing as the club sold €4,500 worth of jerseys with the player's name and number and thousands more are on their way.

As much as 80 shirts went through the club's store within hours of the announcement.

Ronaldo's turbulent passage to the Todo Pederoso has seen rivalry taken to a whole new level as the Flamengo faithful are hoping to curse the player with voodoo.

"We have already contacted a voodoo witch so Ronaldo can break a leg instead of playing for Corinthians," concluded Peruano.

Photographs and various artifacts and memorabilia of the player including shirts were burned and torn to shreds.
