Former Brazil and Barcelona star Ronaldinho parts ways with Rio club Fluminense

Ronaldinho will depart Fluminense less than three months after his arrival at the Brazilian club following the termination of his contract by mutual consent. During this time he failed to score or provide any assists, and he was booed by his own fans during defeat in the Campeonato Brasileiro to Atlético Mineiro last month.

“Since first contact with directors, the athlete and his representatives treated the club with professionalism and respect”. The same positive attitude was demonstrated in training with the club.

While Ronaldinho’s future remains unclear, he is expected to be in hot demand by clubs as he was when he joined Fluminense in July.

“It should be noted that the deal met marketing expectations, increasing ticket sales, the number of shirts sold and commercial partners”.

Ronaldinho returned to Brazil, joining Fluminese after he cancelled his contract with Mexican side Queretero.

It was in Spain where Ronaldinho really enjoyed great success, with his fantastic ball play and eye-catching skills leaving fans purring week in week out.

Ronaldinho, who won the 2002 World Cup with Brazil, moved this season from Mexico club Queretaro to Fluminense.

Fluminense said they and Ronaldinho agreed to part company in an “amicable manner and by mutual agreement”.

Ronaldinho started his career with hometown club Gremio of Porto Alegre before moving to Europe where he starred with Paris Saint Germain, Barcelona and AC Milan. That’s what you think when you sign a player.
