Sad, funny or simply a media shit news? Former Soccer superstar Ronaldinho is in financial distress. He has not paid high debts for years. The superstar is said to have only 5.80 Euros in his accounts. I would support him with a charity contest on Scorum or other platforms - anyone joining or believing this is a nutz news?
Ronaldinho has become a legend at FC Barcelona and has also played for Paris Saint-Germain and AC Milan. We all know that anyone who signs a contract with one of these top European clubs will collect a lot of money. So much so that financial worries should be something completely foreign.
Ronaldinho can obviously only dream of it. As the Spanish media, including the newspapers Marca and as, report, the now 38-year-old is bankrupt. Wrong investment partner consultants or simply stupid?
Ronaldinho does not pay million-dollar fine
According to the Brazilian portal UOL there are only 24.63 real (Brazilian currency) on his accounts. Converted: a mere 5.80€. A tax office took a look at Ronaldinho's finances because he had not paid a fine of two million euros for years. It will probably have been frightened to find out: The man who was named FIFA's best footballer in the world in 2004 and 2005 is obviously not solvent.
Background: Together with his brother Roberto de Assis, he had illegally commissioned the construction of a sugar mill in a nature reserve.
Passport revoked - Nike deal apparently saves superstar
Ronaldinho is said to have had his passport revoked for the time being at the behest of the authorities. The Brazilian's lifestyle, however, does not reveal any financial hardship. Ronaldinho makes a calm impression on the social networks. Just like at the FIFA Gala in London at the end of September. He also flew halfway around the world recently. The superstar first visited China, Japan and Africa. Then he also made a stop in Europe.
Ronaldinho to play in Frankfurt soon
That's where he's headed - at least that's what the plan says - soon again. Ronaldinho has announced a charity match in Frankfurt's Commerzbank-Arena for 17 November.
