Ronaldinho may have retired from professional football in January 2018 but it appears he still has a few tricks with the ball at his feet. The 39-year-old is currently serving time in a Paraguayan prison after being found guilty in the Ronaldinho passport case. The Ronaldinho prison inmates had the pleasure of playing alongside the World Cup winner.

Officers eventually found out the Ronaldinho passport was a fake and arrested the former Brazilian forward. Due to the Ronaldinho passport being a duplicate, there is a probability that footballing legend could face up to six months in a Paraguayan jail.
