Ronaldinho set to join Flamengo

Tue 13th, July 2010

Rio de Janeiro, Brazil (Sports Network) - Reports in Brazil suggest Ronaldinho is set to leave AC Milan and join Flamengo in his homeland.

The GloboEsporte website suggests that the former Barcelona star has verbally accepted an offer to play for the Brazilian side and is talking to the Rossoneri in an attempt to secure a release from his San Siro contract.

Flamengo president Patricia Amorim has said that she has held talks with the player, although no official details have been released.

Ronaldinho, who is currently on holiday in Rio de Janeiro, still has one year left on his AC Milan contract but could follow in the footsteps of fellow Brazil international Robinho, who joined Santos on loan from Manchester City in January.

The 30-year-old, who has scored 24 goals in 76 appearances for Milan since joining the club from Barcelona two years ago, was not selected by Dunga for Brazil's World Cup squad in South Africa earlier this summer.

He initially moved to Europe in 2001 when he was transferred from Gremio to Paris St Germain but really made his name during a five-year spell at Barcelona, scoring 84 goals in 179 appearances for the Catalan giants.
