Ronaldinho facts

At the age of 8 he started showing his skills on the futsal pitches. It was also at this age that he received his popular name “Ronaldinho” as he was usually the smallest and youngest player in the club games.

He gained national attention at the age of 13 after scoring 23 goals in his side’s 23-0 win over a local side.

In 1999, Ronaldinho heralded his arrival at the national level by humiliating World Cup winner Dunga as he inspired Gremio to win the final at the Rio Grande do Sul State Championship. In one game, he flicked the ball over Dunga’s head before racing away while spreading it out with another mazy dribble.

In 2001, English giants Arsenal tried to bring him to the English coast but the transfer fell through as he was unable to obtain a work permit because he was not an EU player and had not played enough games for his national team.

He eventually secured a move to Europe to French side Paris Saint-Germain in 2001 with a €5m transfer

In 2003 he moved to FC Barcelona, which managed to overcome the competition of the English giants Manchester United. The English side had even given him a personal tour of their facilities but it was claimed he was put off by the English weather.

Ronaldinho’s signature of Joan Laporta has been viewed as a political move by some as he failed to deliver David Beckham after promising England’s signature during his election campaign. Ronaldinho was much better than Real Madrid’s Beckham.

He missed most of the first half of his debut season with Barcelona due to injury. Mid-season his side were in twelfth place, but his return caused a stir and they managed to finish second.

In September 2005, he signed a two-year extension with Barcelona that included an £85m release clause. They had previously offered him a nine-year deal worth £85million but he turned it down due to the length of the deal.

In November 2005, he became the second Barcelona player, after the legendary Diego Maradona, to receive the standing ovation of Real Madrid fans at the Santiago Bernabéu stadium as he spearheaded his side’s 3-0 loss to their arch-rivals.

In 2006 he won the first double to include the league title and European title as he led Barcelona to the La Liga and UEFA Champions League titles.

With growing concerns about his partying lifestyle and the negative impact it was having on young prodigy Lionel Messi, Barcelona decided to sell him to AC Milan in July 2008. His lack of commitment to the training regime had also led to his physical decline.

In May 2012, he filed a lawsuit against his side Flamengo for failing to pay his salary for the last 4 months. He also terminated his contract with them. In his only full season with the Brazilian team, he won the Campeonato Carioca title, the Taça Guanabara title and the Taça Rio.

In 2013 he was instrumental in guiding Atlético Mineiro for the first time in the Copa Libertadores. His team had also won Campeonato Mineiro and his excellent performances earned him the 2013 South American Footballer of the Year award.

In July 2015, Ronaldinho returned to Brazilian football by signing a contract with Fluminense. However, in September it was announced that he had reached an amicable agreement to terminate his contract as he was not happy with his performances.

At the 2002 FIFA World Cup, he linked a deadly offensive partnership with Ronaldo and Rivaldo that played a key role in guiding Brazil to a record fifth World Cup title.

After his team’s disappointing performance at the2006, he was the target of the anger of the Brazilian fans along with Adriano. The fact that he held a party at his home in Barcelona that lasted until the wee hours at the nightclub immediately after exiting the tournament did not help the general mood.

In February 2006 he was appointed to an official position by UNICEF, the United Nations Children’s Fund.

In 2011, Ronaldinho was hired by the United Nations Joint Program on HIV/AIDS to help raise awareness of the disease among young people and educate them about prevention.

In January 2018, his brother and his agent confirmed that Ronaldinho was retiring from football.

In 2005 he was captain of the Brazilian national team and won the Confederations Cup. He was even named man of the match in his team’s 4-1 win over Argentina in the final.
