Denilson de Oliveira

Denílson, full name Denílson de Oliveira Araújo, (born August 24 1977 in Diadema, Brazil) is a football winger, who in 1998 became the most expensive footballer in the world. He is currently signed to Major League Soccer club FC Dallas.A player of outstanding close control and dexterity, Denílson is renowned for his 'stand still' stepovers, with many referring to the skill as "the Denílson". In interviews, Denílson is known for talking plainly. In a 2003 interview with Wanderley Nogueira, Denílson offered some advice to Brazil’s younger prospects, like Gil, Robinho and Kaká, suggesting that they should avoid thinking about money, and focus instead on the joy of playing football in a great footballing centre, ironically despite his wage negotiations and exit to Saudi Arabia only a few years later.
