This summer, the pair appear to have been travelling around the world, with pictures from Brazil, Cyprus, Israel and Poland.

Rivaldo also took over as president of his former club in Brazil, Mogi Mirim, in 2008 before trying to sell it in 2014. He is not known to still be working there.

In addition, he performed some ambassadorial duties for Barcelona, though these were reportedly scaled down in 2018 after he declared his support for Brazil’s right wing president Jair Bolsonaro.

Ronaldinho was also reported to have had his duties scaled back for the same reason.
