Ronaldinho's brother and agent says it is '90 per cent' likely the Barcelona star will join AC Milan - and not Manchester City - this summer.The Brazilian has been told he can leave the Nou Camp for the right price and has been linked with a move to the Premier League.
Mark HUghes have confirmed an interest in taking the 28-year-old to Eastlands, while Ronaldinho has admitted he would be tempted to work with Luiz Felipe Scolari at Chelsea.
However, Milan have long been favourites to sign the playmaker, despite vice-president Adriano Galliani stating the club would not break the bank for Ronaldinho.
And the player's representative Roberto de Assis is confident that Ronaldinho will move to the San Siro this summer.
"It's true, he is likely to go to Milan," De Assis told Telelombardia.
"Everything is ready for the transfer. It is 90% and we are heading in this direction."
Los Angeles Galaxy had also been linked with a big-money offer to tempt Ronaldinho to Major League Soccer, but De Assis insists his brother will not join David Beckham in the United States.
He added: "He will never play there. He will play a tournament in Houston for his sponsor, but a transfer to the USA is excluded."

It'll be great to see Ronnie alongside Kaka, Pato, Pirlo, Seedorf, Pipo...... especially if we could work on his weight!
yes- ronaldinho lost his form and gained a lot of weight lately. thats why the interest in him hasnt been that great.. he can regain it though. would be great to see him with kaka,pato and pirlo. forza milan..
Ron would be no good to city at all, City are trying to go forward and buying that age of player would put them back to the likes of west ham and portsmouth, who will always stay in the premiership cos they have experience in their teams but they wont win the prem or champs league. We dont need to buy anyone else over 25. Come on Hughesy you can do it.............
if its about money then he can move on to MLS.how come none of the big teams are fighting for him?is his form that bad at 28?
if ronaldinho wants to concede his career is over then by all means move to the MLS, if he still wants to play real futbol then go to a real league. The MLS sucks ass, lets face it, nobody even watches that @#$%, EPL teams bring their practce squad to face the MLS all star team and play competetivly.... MLS is terrible
I think Ronnie should move to the USA it would be good for him. Money fame and all right futbol. Hey what more does he want.. Look at Beckham one of the most powerful people in the World........
