Barcelona president Joan Laporta has backed Ronaldinho to return to his former glories at the Camp Nou.

The 28-year-old Brazilian had endured a difficult season with questions about his fitness levels and weight dominating the headlines rather than his deeds on the pitch.

However, Laporta says: "There is no divorce between Barcelona and Ronaldinho. I have always had absolute respect for the player.

"Ronaldinho has given a lot to Barca and I believe he can continue to do so. We all appreciate that at the moment he is going through a bad phase.

"There is no time to think about individuals. We must think about the team rather than individuals."
