Recently, Brazilian superstar Ronaldo joined the Indonesian second-tier league team, causing a sensation in the local area. This is the second time Ronaldo has been on the green field as a player since he announced his boots in 2018.
It is reported that Ronaldo signed a short-term contract with the club and will represent the team in three games, with a limited playing time of 45 minutes.
Ronaldo is 42 years old this year. After he retired in 2018, he has received many club invitations because he is still very popular.
Last year, the Corinthian club of the Brazilian League extended an olive branch to Ronaldo, looking forward to signing Ronaldo and leaving him a No. 9 jersey. Although Ronaldo did not accept the invitation, the matter still caused a sensation in Brazilian football.
Ronaldo, who is naturally optimistic, likes a free and unrestrained life. Now, he still enjoys the joy of football, often invited to participate in some football exhibitions, sometimes appearing in the five-a-side stadium, sometimes participating in beach football performances, and also participating in the filming of music videos.
According to statistics, Ronaldo has more than 100 million fans on social media. Among the retired stars, Ronaldo ranks among the top in the world, second only to Beckham , which shows his appeal.
This time, Ronaldo chose to return in the Indonesian second division, causing another sensation on social media. On the one hand, Ronaldo's arrival can help this second-tier team quickly increase its popularity, and on the other hand, Ronaldo can get rich rewards. It is reported that after Ronaldo signed the team, his weekly salary was as high as US$580,000, equivalent to nearly RMB 4 million.
It is worth mentioning that Ronaldo has "privileges" in the team and he can choose to play any position.
