Ronaldinho will join Milan - Dunga

Sun 06 Jul, 06:30 PM


Brazil boss Carlos Dunga is convinced that Ronaldinho will play for AC Milan next season as the player himself wants to move to the San Siro.Milan have been tracking Ronaldinho ever since Barcelona announced they were open to offers for the Brazil playmaker, with Manchester City also showing strong interest.

Milan's interest in the 28-year-old seems to have cooled of late as they have turned their attention to Arsenal's Emmanuel Adebayor and claimed they were unable to pay Ronaldinho's wages.

However, Milan vice president Adriano Galliani on Sunday revealed the Barca forward had rejected an offer to join City, and Dunga believes the Rossoneri are in pole position to land the player.

"Ronaldinho wants to go to Milan," the Brazil coach told Italian newspaper Gazzetta dello Sport.

"And it is the players who determine transfers. The Rossoneri club has all the good cards in their hand."

Questions have been raised of Ronaldinho's fitness after he appeared to have gained weight while recovering from a thigh injury in Brazil last month.

But Dunga believes reports of health problems are widely exaggerated, and that Ronaldinho will be fit in time for this summer's Olympics.

"The stories are exaggerated. Ronaldinho is only a few kilos overweight," Dunga continued.

"He'll slim down quickly and he will be a star of the Olympics."
