It's a story that won't go away, and all Sir Bob had to do to stop all the gossip was to reply to the question: "Are you still interested in Rivaldo?". His reply: "Good question, but I won't answer it". So ... is he? It's a story that won't go away, and all Sir Bob had to do to stop all the gossip was to reply to the question: "Are you still interested in Rivaldo?".

According to sources in Brazil, Sir Bob has put together "a package worth £150,000" to prize the Barcelona star away from a potential move to Serie A.

Robson DID make an offer in June. Fat Fred DID go to Barcelona to try and sign the player before news of his departure reached the world media. But, although the Spanish giants were interested, Rivaldo wasn't.

He said he wanted to stay in Spain, but Barcelona insisted he had to go.

AC Milan have made an approach, but apparently Newcastle are still in the hunt.

What do you reckon? Are the Brazilian press a few days behind the rest of us and picking up on an old story? Or is he on his way?
