Video: Ronaldinho is way better at football than he is at singing

Only a select few individuals are as adept at singing as they are at football. John Barnes is certainly* one, Ronaldinho is not. *definitely not

One of everyone’s favourite Brazilian footballers has made his musical debut (at least we think it’s his musical debut) alongside his friend, Brazilian rapper EdCity, in a new song entitled ‘Vai na fe’ or ‘Go in Faith’.

In fairness to Ronaldinho, when we heard he was making a cameo in a rap song – you can listen to the song in its entirety here – we thought it would be way worse than it actually is, although we’re not convinced by the Shaggy-like impersonation he throws in around the 2:55 mark.

Not a terrible effort but c’mon Ronnie, when it comes to footballing rappers, you know you should leave it to the professionals.
