Ronaldinho to make comeback in Italian third tier
RAVENNA, Italy: Brazil legend Ronaldinho will make his playing return aged 46 next month for Ravenna, the third-division Italian club announced on Saturday.
Ronaldinho, the renowned Brazilian footballer, is set to resume his playing career at the age of 46 for Ravenna, an Italian third-division club, according to an announcement made on Saturday. The 2002 World Cup victor's move to Ravenna was revealed in June. With the ambition to score his 300th career goal, the former Paris Saint-Germain, Barcelona, and AC Milan playmaker officially retired from football in 2015, 10 years after receiving the prestigious Ballon d'Or award.
Since then, Ronaldinho has transformed into a shareholder of Ravenna, a club nestled between Venice and San Marino.
Details about the comeback have now been finalized: Ronaldinho will take to the field in the derby against Forli on Sunday, November 15 at the Bruno Benelli Stadium. This match is expected to draw global attention to the Bruno Benelli Stadium. Currently, Ravenna occupies the second position in Group B of the Italian third tier, trailing leaders Spezia by six points. The club is eyeing a return to Serie B for the first time since 2008.
