Ronaldo Set To Join Flamengo
Ronaldo’s future in football has been uncertain for quite a while now after he severed a tendon in his knee playing for Milan against Livorno in February, which placed his whole career in jeopardy.
After a successful operation in Paris, it was revealed that he would be out of action for at least nine months, although a more likely return date was said to be in 2009.
Although Ronaldo’s rehabilitation is going well, and is well ahead of schedule, his contract at Milan expired at the end of June, and the Italian club opted against offering him a new deal.
Having recently been linked with a sensational move to Manchester City, the Gazzetta claims that it is likely El Fenomeno will end up joining Flamengo.
The 32-year-old is continuing his rehabilitation with Flamengo, and if he can prove his fitness, he will then sign for the club on a free transfer.
“We have a deal with the players’ agent,” Flamengo President Marcio Braga told Globoesporte back in July.
“As soon as he has recovered from the injury, we will sit around a table and complete the paperwork.”
Ronaldo has not played in the Brazilian league since 1993/94 with Cruzeiro, who he then left to join PSV Eindhoven.
