Recent Acquisition Ronaldinho Helping Liga MX Side Querétaro Pack Its Stadium

10.16.2014

Since Ronaldinho signed with Liga MX side Querétaro, the Brazilian "has been confirmed as a magnet for fans, as the club has considerably improved its attendance at home matches," according to Eduardo Espinosa Bautista of LA AFICION. Since signing Ronaldinho, the club "has averaged better than 85% attendance at home games, according to Liga MX figures." Before the player's arrival, the team "had struggled to fill its stadium to 50% of capacity, with the exception of the first game of the season" (LA AFICION, 10/15).
