Check Out An Amazing Goal From Ronaldinho!
Ronaldinho transferred to AC Milan late Tuesday, leaving FC Barcelona after the club’s new coach declared the team would plan for next season without the Brazilian playmaker.
The Italian club said late Tuesday Ronaldinho would arrive in Milan on Wednesday to get a medical exam and sign a contract through June 30, 2011.
Barcelona said that AC Milan will pay $33.4 million for Ronaldinho and another $6.3 million if it clinches a place in next season’s Champions League.
A two-time FIFA World Player of the Year, Ronaldinho has been seeking to leave Barcelona since new coach Pep Guardiola said that the star was not needed.
At Milan, he will join fellow Brazilians Kaka and Alexandre Pato.
The 28-year-old, who was under contract at the Camp Nou through 2010, was coming off one of his poorest seasons with nine goals in 26 appearances. Assorted injuries—ranging from a foot problem to thigh injury to knee tendinitis—accompanied by concerns over his social habits meant Ronaldinho played the fewest games since first moving to Europe to play for French side Paris St-Germain in 2001.
If Ronaldinho is healthy and can play at the same level when he was with Barcelona, AC Millan, no question about it, will be loaded. Ronaldinho joining Kaka and Pato, two great players, and they have a guy who is still one of the best players in the world.
AC Millan is heading for big things.

Report: Ronaldinho heading for Milan

Spanish newspaper El Mundo Deportivo is reporting that FC Barcelona has agreed terms with AC Milan to send Brazilian star Ronaldinho to the San Siro for approximately $47 million.
An 'outline agreement' has reportedly been reached between the two European powerhouses.
The two-time FIFA World Player of the Year and World Cup winner in 2002 has only to agree terms with the transfer in order to complete the massive move.
The supremely gifted midfielder who led Barcelona to the 2006 Champions League title has fallen out of favor in recent months with head coach Frank Rijkaard after a string of injuries and inconsistent performances.
If the deal does indeed go through, Ronaldinho will join fellow Brazilians Kaka, Ronaldo, Alexandre Pato, Emerson and Dida, all who are currently on the books with AC Milan.
Ronaldinho began his professional career in his native Brazil back in 1998 with local club Gremio. In 2001, he made the jump to European football when he joined French club Paris St. Germain.
After two personally successful seasons in France, Barcelona snapped up the up-and-coming young star in 2003 and built its future team around him. They were rewarded in 2006 by winning Europe's biggest club prize - the UEFA Champions League trophy.
AC Millan is my favorite soccer team, and if this deal goes through, AC Millan gets a quality player. He may not be the best player in the world anymore, but he can still rocket goals from way outside.
Good move by Millan if this deal goes through.
