Paris Saint-Germain welcomed RB Leipzig for matchday three of the UEFA Champions League, and the capital club decided to bring a special guest for the match, Ronaldinho. The Brazil international played for the Ligue 1 side from 2001 to 2003.

Nonetheless, PSG bringing back a legend of theirs for a Champions League night reportedly didn’t sit well with FC Barcelona. According to Sport, the Spanish side isn’t happy with Ronaldinho appearing at the Parc des Princes while being a paid ambassador for them. 

Sport details that although the French giant is where Ronaldinho became a star in European football, Barcelona is upset due to the awareness by the Brazilian as both clubs have had some tension over the past couple of years. 

Over the past few years, Barcelona has seen two stars in Neymar Jr. and Lionel Messi, head over to PSG, which likely isn’t sitting well with the La Liga club. 

Although Ronaldinho is an ambassador for Barcelona, the club shouldn’t see this as a big deal since there is history with PSG and the player.
