THE BARCELONA AND BRAZIL LEGEND REMAINS EMBROILED IN A LEGAL BATTLE WITH AUTHORITIES IN HIS HOMELAND, LEADING TO GOODS BEING REMOVED FROM HIS HOME

Ronaldinho’s ongoing dispute with Brazilian authorities has led to the Barcelona legend having luxury vehicles and other personal possessions being seized during a raid on his home. 

The World Cup winner and his brother Roberto were convicted of illegal construction in February 2015 and ordered to pay 8.5 million Brazilian Real (£1.7m).

Along with company Reno Constructions and Incorporations Ltd., they were found to have built a sugar mill with a fishing platform and a pier in a permanent preservation area on Lake Guaíba without permission.
