Ronaldo is a striker who currently plays for the Brazilian club S.C. Corinthians Paulista. He also played for the Brazilian national team in all the previous instalments, but however has fallen out of favour with the current coach due to lack of form and injuries, however he still makes the in game squad. He was originally known as Radolno in the earlier games due to licensing issues. He is noted as being one of the few players who has appeared in all the instalments of the game since PES1.

Ronaldo plays as a centre forward, usually most effective when playing with an additional striking partner (Shown to great effect in PES6 playing alongside Adriano in the national team). He is also classed as being overrated due to the fact in real life the player has had severe dips in form, something which is not shown in the game. His injury tolerance however has been accurately represented by the fact one mistimed slide tackle often is enough to take him out a match.

PES 2009

He has also lost his preset face since his departure from the default player list in PES 2009. He only appeared as an unlockable player in PES09 named Romeyda. He is considered one of the best strikers in the series.
