Ronaldinho Gets a Little 'Galo' Rooster Statue as Atletico Mineiro Leaving Gift


Ronaldinho's run with Atletico Mineiro came to an end last week when the Brazilian became a free agent.


And though his departure was abrupt, Ronaldinho's time with the club was a success, with the team winning the Copa Libertadores in 2013.


Atletico got him a little parting gift (if it worked like office goodbyes in England, we can only presume there was a whip-round and a card that had to be discreetly signed whenever Ronaldinho went out on his lunch break).


And the head of HR came back with a statue of a rooster—the Atletico Mineiro "Galo"—with a message written on a plaque below.


A nice touch—and hopefully it finds pride of place somewhere in Ronaldinho's home.
