A huge crowd of Fluminense fans attended the first training session of new signing Ronaldinho (picture) in Rio de Janeiro, earlier this week. Ronaldinho, 35, is making a return to his homeland in Brazil after a career that took him to Paris, Milan, Barcelona and Mexico. The World Cup winner appeared relaxed as he flashed his trademark smile and gave fans a thumbs-up sign as he passed by them during the practice session. Reports said yesterday that Fluminense’s club membership has soared by 36 per cent since Ronaldinho’s arrival.
