Ronaldinho's agent has denied suggestions the player is set to quit AC Milan for Flamengo this summer.
Ronaldinho has regularly been linked with a return to Brazil
Rumours in Italy have suggested Ronaldinho could be set to leave San Siro, and it was reported in Brazil that he had reached an agreement with Flamengo.
However, his agent and brother, Roberto de Assis, has now dismissed the speculation and revealed he could yet extend his current deal.
"Ronaldinho has never expressed a wish to leave Milan," he told Gazzetta dello Sport. "In fact we have an agreement with Milan to review his contract in the autumn."
Reports in Brazil claim Ronaldinho has verbally accepted a contract offer from Flamengo, meaning the two clubs must now agree terms if the former World Player of the Year is to return to his home country.
Ronaldinho could be leaving the San Siro
Ronaldinho has another year left on his contract in Italy but according to globoesporte.com is determined to leave the Rossoneri and return to his home country.
Though Ronaldinho enjoyed a renaissance of sorts when scoring 12 goals and claiming 14 assists in Serie A last season, his campaign ended with disappointment when Milan failed to maintain their title challenge and Dunga refused to name him in Brazil's World Cup squad.
Milan may welcome the chance to lift Ronaldinho off their wage bill as they plan to restructure their squad this summer, with Barcelona striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic repeatedly cited as a possible target for the Rossoneri.
If Milan and Flamengo cannot reach an agreement, then it is reported that Ronaldinho has a clause in his contract allowing him to leave the San Siro for free in the January transfer window - a scenario that plays into Flamengo's hands, particularly as they have already agreed terms with the player.
If he does move to Flamengo then Ronaldinho will reunite with midfielder Kleberson who was a fellow member of Brazil's World Cup winning side from 2002. However Adriano, another quarter of the famous 'magic square' from 2006, has left the club to join Roma.
