Brazil and AC Milan star Ronaldhino shocks fans with weight problem

The five time winners of the biggest competition in, international sports have named their 23 man squad which will be competing in the FIFA 2010 World Cup South Africa.

The biggest surprise by the Brazil manager, Dunga, former Brazilian World Cup winner in the 1994 World Cup held in the United States, was that Ronaldinho was left out of the squad.

The Two-time world player of the year, Ronaldinho and Adriano were both left out of the World Cup squad.

Another interesting choice by the manager of Italian and German descent is that rather then choosing an official squad of 30 players and then dropping to 23, Dunga has chosen his 23-man squad right away.

Ronaldinho and Adriano, the former Inter Milan star will now only take part in the competition watched by billions around the world only if there is an injury in the squad.

A surprise selection by Dunga has been, former Manchester United and Besiktas attacking midfielder José Kleberson who is currently playing for Brazilian side Flamengo.
