Kevin-Prince Boateng on how Ronaldinho once saved him from a €250,000 Nike lawsuit:
“I met Ronaldinho when I was playing at Hertha. One day, he brought his classic black R10s with the tongue.
“No one was allowed to wear them, only him, because he had to unveil them on Sunday with Barcelona.
“After seeing them, I went to the store and bought them.
“I wore them on Saturday, and after the game the Nike boss called me. I didn’t know they hadn’t been unveiled and they wanted to sue me for €250,000.
“They called Ronaldinho to ask if they should sue me.
“He replied: ‘No, the Bundesliga is too small, no one saw them.’
“And he saved me.” 😂
