Okocha and Ronaldinho were involved in a combined 35 goals (23 goals, 12 assists) between them for PSG in all competitions.
When asked who was Okocha's best teammate by Eurosport he said: "The best teammate that I ever played with is Ronaldinho because when you are playing with someone that is a bit similar like you, you don't need to communicate to understand each other.
"Just looking at each other, you know what to do and for me my best opponent was myself because I always put myself under pressure to do well, to be the best in wherever I am.
"I always believe that I am the only person that can stop myself, and because I also I believed that I had a special talent,"
