Ronaldinho joins Betcris as brand ambassador

Betcris has announced a partnership with former Balon d’Or winner Ronaldinho which will see the Brazilian trickster become the face of the betting brand. Starting this 1 October, BetCris confirms that Ronaldinho will become the face of its marketing campaigns across the South American continent and that the deal was set to run for three years.

JD Duarte, Betcris’ CEO, commented on the acquisition, stating: "We are very excited to be able to work with Ronaldinho, one of the best of all time! No matter how old you are or where you live, everyone smiles when they see him. We want people to have the same reaction when they think of Betcris".

Ronaldinho went through eight clubs throughout his career and he is recognised as being the only player in history to have won the World Cup, the Balon d’Or, the UEFA Champions League and the Copa Libertadores. He won the FIFA World Player of the Year twice in a row between 2005 and 2006 and the Brazilian is also included in the FIFA 100. Across his 17 year career, the Brazilian also amassed 65 honours, 46 of which were individual awards.

In the coming months, BetCris marketing will announce new social media campaigns featuring Ronaldinho, an athlete who the bookmaker states maintains a 100 million-strong global audience
