Ronaldinho

Ronaldinho won the FIFA World Player of the Year award in 2004 and 2005, and the Ballon d'Or in 2005, at the peak of a spell at Barcelona that produced some of the most electrifying football ever played. He scored 94 goals in 207 appearances for Barca and was instrumental in their 2004–05 and 2005–06 La Liga titles and the 2006 Champions League triumph. He won the 2002 World Cup with Brazil, setting up the decisive penalty with a famous free-kick against England. His smile, tricks, and pure joy redefined what a footballer could look like.
