Ronaldinho strife

-

A court in Brazil has upheld a decision to seize the passports of former World Cup winner Ronaldinho and his brother Assis Moreira. A panel of Brazil’s Superior Court of Justice ruled on Tuesday that the former Barcelona star should not be allowed to travel because of an ongoing lawsuit over alleged environmen­tal crimes. The suit relates to the illegal constructi­on of a fishing platform and a berth on the shores of the Guaiba river in his hometown of Porto Alegre in 2015.
