This will bring joy to the fans of the former FC Barcelona number 10. Ronaldinho, also known as Ronaldo de Assis Moreira, is not done with football. Despite uncertainties following a serious right adductor injury that kept him sidelined since September, he has confirmed his presence at the Club World Cup in Morocco from December 11 to 21, 2013.
Atletico Mineiro, the winner of the Copa Libertadores and South America’s representative in Morocco, unveiled the list of 23 players set to participate in the competition, and Ronaldinho’s name is included. The Brazilian legend, who once considered finishing his career at PSG, will now lead his team in the quest for the trophy.
In the semi-finals of the Club World Cup, Atletico Mineiro could potentially face Raja Casablanca and their new coach, Nabil Maaloul. The latter will face Auckland City from New Zealand in a play-off match. The anticipation for the tournament is building, and football enthusiasts are eager to witness Ronaldinho’s magic on the field once again.
