"Blackburn" lures Ronaldinho and Beckham with million-dollar sums © EuroFootball.com

The ambitions of the mid-table club in the English championship are growing - the new owners from India offer a salary of up to 23 million euros for three years to the star Ronaldinho.

The 30-year-old Ronaldinho, voted the best football player on the planet, will leave Milan in January or at the end of the season, but so far it was thought that he would return to play in his homeland.

However, with "Blackburn" entering the race, the possibility that the Brazilian will choose a much more financially lucrative offer is high.

"He is inclined to test himself in the Premier League, and I think that gives us an advantage," said Anuradha Desai, head of the "Venky" group that owns the club.

But "Blackburn" does not intend to stop there - the team is also aiming to attract David Beckham, who would like to return to playing in Europe for two months while the football season is on a break in the United States.

"We are waiting with open arms for when he can come,"" confirmed representatives of "Blackburn".
