Brazil's three-time world player of the year Ronaldo has agreed in principle to star in a film about a Palestinian child fan of his who dies in a refugee camp, it was reported on Wednesday. The two-time World Cup winner will be with his club Corinthians in the Middle East - for a Sept. 15 friendly in the Palestinian territories against fellow Brazilians Fluminense - at the time that the film is set to be made in Lebanon.
"Ronaldo signed an agreement in principle last week," his agent Fabiano Farah told sports information provider 'El Globo.' However, the striker has yet to get permission from his club to act in the Iranian-directed film.
