Brazil and Barcelona great Ronaldinho set for comeback
Serie C
Ronaldinho is set for his first competitive appearance since 2015, with Ravenna coach Andrea Mandorlini confirming the Brazil great will start against rivals Forli on Sunday.
The 46-year-old joined the Italian third-tier club in August and has been working towards being ready to feature. Now Mandorlini is ready to include him in his three-man attack, with his playing time to be decided together.
“He will play from the start, there's no doubt.”
“Then together we will decide how long he plays,” Mandorlini said.
“He is one of the greatest players of the modern era. And we have to get a result. We always play with three forwards. He will be one of the three.”
The 2005 Ballon d'Or winner returns with another milestone within reach: he is one goal short of 300 career goals.
Ronaldinho played for Paris Saint-Germain, Barcelona and AC Milan during his career. He also won 97 caps for Brazil between 1999 and 2013.
