The 2002 world champion Ronaldinho may soon resume his sporting career. It is said that Argentine Diego Maradona, who coaches the team "Gimnasia de la Plata", could soon receive the assistance of the legendary Ronaldinho, according to lrytas.lt.
As the Spanish media claims, D. Maradona is very interested in the services of the 40-year-old footballer. Ronaldinho ended his career in 2018. Ronaldinho, who held the title of the best footballer on the planet, had planned to sign a contract with "Gimnasia de la Plata" in 2016, but his brother, who was negotiating the contract, cut ties with the club at the last moment.
Official negotiations have not yet taken place, as Ronaldinho is still under house arrest in Asuncion due to suspicions of using forged documents to enter Paraguay.
"Gimnasia de la Plata", coached by D. Maradona, collected 23 points in the shortened last season and finished in 19th place out of 24 elite teams in the Argentine league.
