Legendary former Brazil striker Ronaldo has begun a lengthy bicycle trip following his promise after his club Real Valladolid won promotion to La Liga.
Ronaldo became the majority owner of Valladolid in September 2018, after buying 51 percent of the club’s shares in a deal worth £25million. In December, the former striker also purchased Brazilian giants Cruzeiro – where he began his glorious playing career.
Valladolid were relegated from La Liga a year ago but have now returned after just a one-year absence after winning automatic promotion from the Segunda, alongside Almeria. Ronaldo promised that if the club won promotion this season, he would embark on the 450km (280 miles) cycle from Valladolid’s stadium to Santiago de Compostela in North-Western Spain, alongside his wife.
