According to a report in the British tabloid The Daily Mirror, Premier League money men Manchester City are set to sign Ronaldinho from Milan at the end of the season.

However, it seems that the Citizens' billionaire owners will not have to break the bank for the two-time FIFA World Player of the Year as the Rossoneri are apparently willing to let him go for as little as €11 million (£10m).

The 29-year-old has started only 16 Serie A games this season and speculation that he is set to leave the San Siro this summer has intensified in recent days.

It has been claimed that Brazilian outfits Corinthians, who recently signed Ronaldo, and Flamengo, who recently snapped-up Adriano, are interested in acquiring the former Barcelona star's services.

However, his brother Roberto de Assis Moreira, who is also his agent, stated, "There is no chance of Ronaldinho going back to Brazil at the end of the season.

"But if you ask me whether he could change teams in Europe, I would say yes, definitely."

Italian club Napoli are also rumoured to be considering a move for Ronaldinho.
