Former Brazil playmaker Ronaldinho said on
Sunday he had contracted coronavirus but had no
symptoms.
The 40-year-old ex-Barcelona and AC Milan midfielder, who won
the Champions League and World Cup in an illustrious career, will
remain in isolation in a Belo Horizonte hotel.
“Hi friends, family, fans, I took a Covid-19 test and the result
was positive, I’m doing well, I’m asymptomatic for now,” he said in
a video posted on Instagram.
In August, Ronaldinho returned to Brazil following more than
five months in detention in Paraguay over a fake passport
scandal.
The former Ballon d’Or winner and his brother had both been held
for a month in jail and another four months under house arrest in a
hotel in Asuncion.
Brazil has registered more than 156,000 deaths from coronavirus,
behind only the US in terms of fatalities.
