Brazillian Ronaldo is still having his day in the sun as he lets it all hang out during a relaxed vacation in Ibiza-a spanish party island. The legend hit the waters around happily showing off the results of no longer having to train day in and day out. Tucking into a huge bag of crisps and downing cocktails, the 37-year-old enjoyed the summer heat while surrounded by family and friends on Sunday. Ronaldo, dubbed the phenomenon in his heyday, also proved that he still had athletic prowess by diving off his boat into the crystal-clear Mediterranean Sea. The break comes after a hectic summer for the former player, who acted as one of Brazils six ambassadors for the 2014 World Cup. Alongside ex-players Amarildo Tavares da Silveira, Bebeto, Carlos Alberto Torres, Mário Zagallo, and Brazian female forward Marta Vieira da Silva, he promoted the tournament, in which Germany triumphed over Argentina 1-0 in the final. Ronaldos fluctuating weight since he retired from the sport in 2011 attracted the criticism of Sir Alex Ferguson last year, when the former Man U manager branded him the fat, old one in comparison to his superfit namesake Cristiano Ronaldo. Before his retirement, Ronaldo was often hailed as one of the greatest footballers in history and was one of only three men to have been feted with the FIFA World Player of the Year award three or more times alongside Zinedine Zidane and Lionel Messi. He also scored the two winning goals in the 2002 World Cup final between Brazil and Germany, cementing his place as one of his homelands most beloved sports stars.
