Former Barcelona forward Ronaldinho has called it quit from football despite not playing competitive game since 2015.
Ronadinho's brother and agent Roberto Assis confirmed the retirement on Tuesday and announced a series of tribute events.
"He has stopped, it is ended," Assis said.
"We will do various events in Brazil, Europe and Asia and, of course, we are arranging something with the Brazilian team as well."
The 37 years old was part of the Brazilian squad that won the 2002 World Cup, Champions league with Barcelona in 2006 and won the Balon d'Or in 2015.
Ronaldinho started his career with Gremio in Brazil before moving to Paris St-Germain in 2001.
He spent five years at Barcelona where he won La Liga titles, he also had a spell at AC Milan where he won the Serie A title in 2010-11.
At the later stage of his career Ronaldinho moved to Brazilian side Flamengo in 2011 before spells at Atletico Mineiro, Queretaro in Mexico and Fluminense.
Bye bye to the legend.
