The destruction of the stadium that brought glory to Ronaldinho
According to The Sun: The 45,000-seat stadium where Ronaldinho gained his fame is set to be torn down. The Brazilian club Grêmio last played on this field 12 years ago. Since then, the team has moved to the Arena do Grêmio, which accommodates 55,000 spectators.
Grêmio plans to transfer ownership rights of their former stadium, Stádio Olímpico Monumental, to a new management.
