While Ronaldo’s running, there’s a lot of other stuff happening in Brazilian football. Teams like Palmeiras and Cruzeiro are getting better players with Palmeiras trying to sign Facundo Torres and Cruzeiro getting Lucas Villalba. This is kind of what Ronaldo wants to see happening more in Brazilian football.
Ronaldo’s Transition to Football Leadership
It’s becoming more common to see old players getting into running football, and that’s what Ronaldo’s doing. He already owns Real Valladolid in Spain so he knows about the business side of football. One of his big ideas for the CBF is getting Pep Guardiola to coach Brazil which could really help the team do better internationally.
With the election coming up in March 2025 Ronaldo running could really change how Brazilian football is run. Being such a big name in football and having these big ideas, he could really change Brazilian football for years to come.
