Ronaldinho considering US move

Xinhua, December 26, 2015 Adjust font size:

Ronaldinho has raised the prospect of continuing his career in the US and expects a decision on his future to be made within weeks. 

   Ronaldinho is a free agent after leaving Fluminense by mutual consent in October. 

   He will play for the Brazilian outfit at the Florida Cup next month, honoring a clause written into his contract when he joined the club in July. 

   "I am going to play for a little longer," the 35-year-old was quoted as saying by the Folha de S.Paulo newspaper on Friday.

   "As long my body is willing and I am happy, I want to keep playing. Now I'm going to have time to reflect. There are many possibilities. 

   "I am attracted to the possibility of playing in the US, just like I am in Dubai or Brazil. I am going to take a few more weeks to think and then make a decision."  Endi
