Barcelona sign Ronaldinho again, but this time not as a player but as a club ambassador.

Ronaldinho is regarded as a bona fide Barcelona legend between 2003 and 2008.

The Brazilian maestro was a hero at Camp Nou after restoring Barcelona to their former glory and will work in the USA as one of Barcelona’s ambassadors.

The Brazilian legend who won a World Cup with Brazil in 2002 is excited about his non-playing role and he is looking forward to working with Barcelona again.

The Brazilian wizard, 36, is rejoining the club which he helped return to its status at the top of the game between 2003 and 2008 to act as an official ambassador.

According to UK media outlet, The Sun ,Barcelona are opening a new US office in New York to try enhance their brand internationally – and who better than to bring in as the face of that in North America than the club legend who scored 94 goals in 207 games, winning three La Ligas and a Champions League?

Regarded as one of the best players of his generation, Ronaldinho also won the FIFA World Player of the Year award in 2004 and 2005 and the FIFA Ballon d’Or in 2005 too.
