Ronaldinho signed a five-year contract with the French club Paris Saint-Germain in a transfer of 5 million euros in 2001 that meant his jump to European soccer. During his time at Paris Saint-Germain, Ronaldinho showed a great level of play without exploding, and even had problems with coach Luis Fernandez, as he claimed that Ronaldinho frequented the Parisian nightlife and left aside soccer.
It was not until the tenth week of the season that the Brazilian scored his first goal for PSG in a match against Lyon. The final balance of the two seasons was 25 goals and 20 assists in 77 games, without winning any titles, the reason for which the Brazilian star declared he wanted to leave the French team.
After showing his skills on the international scene, the interest of the big clubs increased.
Having received several proposals from European clubs, including Manchester United, the Brazilian star finally signed with Barcelona.
On July 19, 2003, the signing was made official in exchange for 27 million euros for five seasons with the Blaugrana, where he would reach his maximum level.
