Ronaldo hints at Flamengo move

AC Milan striker Ronaldo has hinted that he wants to return to his homeland and play for Flamengo next year.

The Brazilian, who is likely to be sidelined for the rest of 2008 with a left knee injury, is out of contract in June and it is unlikely he will be offered new terms until he has proved he will be fit to make a return.

Nonetheless, the 31-year-old still has goals he wants to achieve and one of those is to play domestic football in his homeland, for the first time since leaving Cruzeiro for PSV Eindhoven as an 18-year-old in 1994.

He told Fantastico TV show on O Globo: “My contract with Milan finishes in June. From then onwards, I will be free to negotiate with everybody. It would be a big dream and I am sure Flamengo’s doors are open for me.”
