Rivaldo coming back?

Mario · May 2, 2003

According to reports in Spanish daily Marca, Milan playmaker Rivaldo could be set to make a stunning return to the country he left last summer.

The Brazilian has disappointed in Serie A since joining on a free transfer from Barcelona, and now he is being linked with a return to the Catalan club as well as Valencia.

The former Deportivo player never saw eye to eye with Louis van Gaal, but now that the Dutch coach has left Barcelona, a return to the club would be more feasible.

Earlier this week Vice-president Adriano Galliani said that Rivaldo was free to decide his future, although the Italians were hoping that he'd stay.

I'd love to see Rivaldo back in Spain, and he'd be great either in Barcelona, where I'm sure he'd be given a hero's welcome, or in Valencia orange...

As the guys on the Barca board know, there's no bigger Rivo fan than me, but with no Champs League next year, I have a couple of questions.

1)can Barca afford him?
2)will bringing him back delay the development of Saviola and/or JRR?
