Former player Ronaldo “Fenômeno” received a positive result in the Covid-19 test and will not participate in the celebrations of 101 years of Cruzeiro. The businessman has mild symptoms, according to his advisors, and is on rest as per medical advice.
The club planned virtual and face-to-face meetings with supporting members and a press conference focusing on the beginning of the team’s management.
Cruzeiro’s anniversary agenda continues with a mass this Sunday (2) at São Sebastião church, in Belo Horizonte.
The ace announced the purchase of the team on December 18, in an investment of R$ 400 million, and is already facing bureaucratic obstacles and debts.
The purchase was made within a new club-company model, based on a bill authored by the President of the Senate, Rodrigo Pacheco (DEM-MG), sanctioned by President Jair Bolsonaro (PL) in August 2021.
This is the first big deal closed in this new model, which encourages the adoption of the business format by Brazilian clubs.
Currently, the former striker also owns Valladolid, from the Spanish Second Division. In 2018, the Brazilian bought 51% of the team’s shares through Tara Sports (today he owns 73%).
He played for Cruzeiro from 1993 to 1994, with 56 goals in 58 games.
