Retired Brazilian sensation Ronaldinho is set to visit Kolkata during the occasion of Durga Puja next month. An official report said that Ronaldinho is likely to visit the city between October 15-19 but the final date will be decided following the confirmation date of the Barca Legends match at Congo. According to the official, Ronaldinho is expected to feature in a short charity match, besides visiting a football clinic and a Durga Puja pandal.
