Although Ronaldo’s rehabilitation is said to be going well, and
well ahead of schedule, his contract at Milan expired at the end of
June, and the Italian club have refused to offer him a new deal
until he can prove his fitness.
It now seems they have lost the player for good, as Brazilian club
Flamengo, who Ronaldo has never hidden his love for, claim that
they have a deal to sign the striker.
“We have a deal with the players’ agent,” Flamengo President
Marcio Braga told Globoesporte.
“As soon as he has recovered from the injury, we will sit around a
table and complete the paperwork.
“Flamengo’s medical staff are personally following his physical
progress, and Ronaldo will be this club’s top priority.”
This news means that it is highly possible that Ronaldo has played
his final ever game in Serie A. He wore the shirt of Inter from
1997 to 2002, and that of Milan from January 2007 to June 2008.
