Ronaldinho to visit Mumbai on July 14

Former FIFA World Player of the Year Ronaldinho will visit India on Friday and explore his future with Premier Futsal, a variation of football played indoors.

The World Cup-winning Brazilian football great, a Ballon d’Or winner, will be in Mumbai where he will make an announcement regarding Premier Futsal.

Ronaldinho was forced to quit Premier Futsal last year after just two matches. He returned to his homeland as ‘Brand Ambassador’ for the Paralympic Games in Rio de Janeiro after scoring five goals on his debut for the Goa franchise against Paul Scholes’s Bangalore 5’s.

On his upcoming visit to India, Ronaldinho said, “My association with Premier Futsal has been a fruitful one. It was a great experience to be in India and play in front of local crowds last year and I look forward to another warm welcome from this sports loving country.”
