Ronaldinho is one of the most iconic players to have graced the football pitch. He put the 'beautiful' in 'beautiful game' and lit up the world with his incredible skills. The Brazilian's career saw him turn out for European giants PSG, Barcelona and AC Milan in his prime before he returned to his home country to see out the rest of his playing days. Now retired, Ronaldinho has revealed that he's become the subject of a new biopic: 'The Happiest Man in the World'. The documentary is set to tell the story of his life, charting his rise from the streets of Brazil to becoming one of football's most iconic stars. Ronaldinho shared the trailer on his Instagram with the following message to his fans:"A difficult stage of my life has reached its end, thanks, God.
"I haven’t got words to thank all the affection and support in these last few months. You will always be in my heart."I want to share with you a trailer of the film. It tells the story of my life which is linked in great part to your support. I hope you enjoy it."Check out the trailer below:
Now that looks exciting, doesn't it? During the trailer, Ronaldinho can be seen talking about his love for the game and for performing in front of a crowd.
"My first memory. The ball. The ball is the great love of my life. When I have the ball, the world stops," he says.
"At that moment I don’t think about anything else. What’s difficult for you was easy for me!" he adds, talking about his trademark grin.
"There is not a day when I do not think about a full stadium. Football was my life."
Although an exact release date isn't shared, the words 'Ronaldinho 2020' appear at the end of the trailer which suggests we'll be able to watch the full film later this year.
We can't wait.
