Ronaldinho from house arrest with a strong message for Barcelona: Me and Barcha together forever.

Ronaldo de Assis Moreira, better known as Ronaldinho Gaúcho, is no doubt one of the greatest magic players the football story has ever known. He's a lover everywhere, and his current situation in Paraguay's justice is not hidden from his smile by the luxury hotel Palmarom in Asunción. In an interview for “El Mundo Deportivo” he said he is eternally grateful to Barcelona for the support and way he treated him.

Barcelona has always treated me with much love and respect. Thank you with all my heart for your messages and love. Our relationship is very special. I'm a soccer player for love and profession. They know me well and know it was not an easy time. The support that people and friends told me was very important in coping with this storm.

Even the Palmarrows Hotel, where Ronaldinho is standing under house arrest, is owned by the Barcelona group. It seems his fate is tied to the name of this city...

I and Barcelona are united forever. It'll be my second city. It's the most incredible club and his fans live deep in my heart. Football is unique, a truly global phenomenon. It has always opened my doors, even in many moments, when everything seemed difficult or even impossible. He took me to Barcelona to fulfill my dreams.

If there is something that characterizes him, it is no doubt his joy and his smile both inside and outside the field.

It has not always been easy, but I have tried to bring joy by doing what I do most - playing soccer. I was sad only when I couldn't make people happy. Fortunately, I suffered very little injuries in my 20-year career.

How is Ronnie doing time at the hotel, being treated well?

Here, in the Palmarrow Hotel, we have excellent treatment. We're very calm. They're doing everything that we can to spend time in the best way possible. It's been 60 days long. People in their homes should imagine what it might be like not being able to do what you're used to. We do sports almost every day. We have a gym where we can work, and a room that's adapted to us. Coronavius? I hope soon everything will be back to normal and we can go home. We hope everything will be the same.
