Brazilian soccer player Ronaldinho showed that he regained his famous smile through a video clip in which he recorded a private message for his colleague in prison.

The 40-year-old Brazilian star appeared, raising his beard, speaking for the first time since he entered prison about a month ago, because he entered Paraguay with a fake passport.

Former Paraguayan striker Nelson Cuevas raised fears after his remarks after Ronaldinho's visit to the prison, when he confirmed that he was "sad" and lost his famous smile due to being behind bars, but the 2002 World Cup winning star showed his distinctive smile while filming the video from inside the prison.

Ronaldinho sent a letter to the family of his new colleague in prison, who plays with him on the soccer team, a former police officer named Pablo Cesar Morales.

Speaking in Spanish, Ronaldinho said: "Hello everyone, welcome to the Morales family. I am here with my companion, my attackers, Pablo. He plays very well. We are together and we will play again very soon."

Leaked videos from inside the prison showed the former Barcelona star playing football in the internal league in prison, leading his team to victory 11-2 after he scored 5 goals and made the rest, as he appeared playing volleyball with foot, but he suffered a loss in front of two prisoners convicted of burglary And murder.
