At 46, Ronaldinho Signs with Ravenna in Stunning Football Comeback
Football legend Ronaldinho is ready to return to the professional game after agreeing to join Italian Serie C side Ravenna at age 46. He will be officially unveiled during a special event in Miami on June 23. Ravenna has confirmed his arrival but has not stated whether he will feature on the pitch or focus on ambassadorial duties. Retiring from Fluminense in 2015, Ronaldinho has spent the past years in charity matches and promotional appearances. He said, “New colours, same smile. I can’t wait to dance on the ball again and write a new story with Ignazio and the Cipriani family.” The Brazilian icon won the 2002 World Cup, lifted the Champions League with Barcelona, earned two FIFA World Player of the Year awards, and claimed the 2005 Ballon d’Or.
