AC Milan coach Massimiliano Allegri has confirmed Ronaldinho is set for a move back to Brazil and snub a potential move to Blackburn.
The forward, who had been a ambitious target for the Ewood Park outfit under new owners Venky's, is close to joining home-town club Gremio. Brazilian media outlet Radio Globo claimed the 30-year-old was in Rio De Janeiro to sign a three-and-a-half-year deal with the club.
Allegri said at Wednesday's press conference: "We are all sorry to lose a player of the quality of Ronaldinho.
"But he has made a life choice by going to Brazil."
Ronaldinho's current contract with Milan expires at the end of the the season and, with the Rossoneri having already signed Antonio Cassano from Sampdoria this week, there is no space for the former Barcelona star in Allegri's line-up.
