Milan playmaker Ronaldinho finds himself under another cloud as a storm gathers over his future with both Manchester City and Flamengo ready to rain down their offerings for him, according to Tuttosport.

The Brazilian was in line for a contract extension, but Milan withdrew their approach after he showed opposition to taking a pay cut, and he finds himself open to discussion.

And City are said to be pondering a €15 million bid for him. Roberto Mancini's club would be able to guarantee the ace top wages. He is almost on €9m per annum at Milan, but they want him to accept a reduction.

There is an alternative for Ronaldinho. Flamengo, who have lost Adriano to Roma, want the Rossoneri whizz. Coach Zico is a keen admirer.

But a report this morning from Blic Sport claims 'Dinho's brother and agent Roberto De Assis is working on a totally different scenario. He is in the USA speaking with the Los Angeles Galaxy over the possibility of his brother joining them.
