Ronaldinho returns to the pitch at 46! His new team has been announced

Ronaldinho, one of the legends of football, has returned to the center of the football agenda at the age of 46 by signing with Italian Serie C side Ravenna FC. It was stated that the Brazilian star also acquired a stake in the club.

Having played for clubs such as Barcelona, Paris Saint-Germain, and Milan, Ronaldinho won the Ballon d’Or in 2005 and was a 2002 World Cup champion with the Brazil National Team. The experienced footballer played his last official match in 2015 for Fluminense.

Whether Ronaldinho will take the pitch in a Ravenna jersey is not yet clear. The Brazilian star gave a cautious response to a question regarding the possibility of scoring his 300th career goal with Ravenna.

"If that happens, it would be even better. I don't know; that depends on the president and the coach. I came here because of the friendship between us. We will wait for the team to do good things. I came here to help."

Club President Ignazio Cipriani also drew attention to the impact on the city and the fans, in addition to the sporting dimension of the deal. Cipriani said this move was made to "integrate the entire city with the team" and to create an enthusiastic fan base for the new season.

It was stated that Ronaldinho will not take part in Ravenna's season-opening match away against Reggiana. For this reason, whether the star will return to the pitch and, if he does, which match he will play in remains uncertain for now.
