The FC Barcelona legend was arrested last year after he and his brother were caught with fake passports in Paraguay, with both also being investigated for alleged involvement in a money-laundering scheme.

However, things have changed for the 40-year-old since his arrest, according to El Pais. Ronaldinho was on the verge of declaring bankruptcy but has put his life back on track, it is claimed.

Check out some footballers who went broke in the gallery below:

El Pais state he has earned £710 000 (R14 million) since leaving jail after a series of good choices with advertising and sponsorship deals.

He was named honorary citizen of Belo Horizonte in Brazil and ventured into the music scene in the area.

He also launched his own wine and gin brands, while earning a significant amount from his involvement with FIFA 21 and Pro Evolution Soccer. He features as an unlockable player in both games and has his own team dubbed 'R10 Team' in FIFA 21.

This year, Ronaldinho is set to release a film about his playing career, as he announced on Instagram recently.

"A difficult stage is coming to an end, thank God. I have no words to thank you for all the care and support that I have received in recent months."
