Okocha: Ronaldinho was copying me and I advise Salah to join Barcelona

Nigeria legend Jay-Jay Okocha spoke of the time when he and Brazilian icon Ronaldinho were teammates at PSG, while he gave current Liverpool star Mohamed Salah a piece of advice.

In an interview with Egyptian TV, former Nigeria star Jay-Jay Okocha, who played for several European clubs, spoke of the time he shared at PSG with Brazilian legend Ronaldinho Gaucho, who was still a youngster back then, noting that the latter was copying some of the dribbles and tricks the Nigerian was famous for.

"Ronaldinho tried to imitate some of my skills and dribbles, he was still a young player before I left for England and he joined Barcelona," Okocha told 'On time sports'.

Okocha also stated that the Liberian George Weah is the best African player of all time as he was an inspiration to all African players following the prizes he won, including the best player in Africa award. When asked about the best Egyptian players he faced as a player, Okocha mentioned Hossam Hassan and Ahmed Hossam Mido as both had great goalscoring and technical abilities.
