SAO PAULO (AP) — Ronaldinho's brother and agent says the playmaker is negotiating a return to Brazil from AC Milan, with three top clubs lining up to sign him.



The 30-year-old Ronaldinho is currently in Brazil and his brother Roberto Assis says Flamengo, Gremio and Palmeiras are all trying to sign the player, with a deal expected to be sealed in a few days' time.



Assis has met with the clubs' representatives and is analyzing their offers. He told the GloboEsporte.com website that "we don't know what's going to happen yet, but we want him playing in Brazil again."
