The iconic Ronaldinho will take part in his first professional football match in over 11 years as he laces up his boots to take part in a Serie C match between Ravenna and Forli on Sunday afternoon: Here is everything you need to know about the return of the Brazilian and how to watch his comeback.
Over the summer, it was confirmed that Ronaldinho had signed with Serie C outfit Ravenna and that he would take part in at least one competitive fixture for the Emilia-Romagnan side.
That is set to happen on Sunday (November 15) when Ravenna take on Forli. Ronaldinho landed in Italy on Friday, trained individually in the late afternoon and then took part in his first session with the rest of the Ravenna squad on Saturday.
Ronaldinho, 46, is expected to start when Ravenna take on Forli on Sunday, kicking off at 16.30 BST.
The 2005 Ballon d’Or winner will be hoping to score his 300th professional goal in Ravenna colours. As things stand, he has 299 for club and country: 33 with Brazil and 266 across his spells with Gremio, PSG, Barcelona, Milan, Flamengo, Atletico Mineiro, Queretaro and Fluminense.
Sunday’s game between Ravenna and Forli will be available to watch live in the UK on the Sky Sports Football YouTube channel. CBS will be showing the game in the USA, Sky Sport Calcio will be showing the game in Italy.
Football Italia will be among the accredited media and you can also follow the action as it unfolds on our Liveblog and the reactions as they come in on our YouTube channel.
