Ronaldinho: 'Retirement on my mind'

Former Brazil international Ronaldinho says that his plan "is to play one more year" before hanging up his boots.

Ronaldinho has revealed that his plan "is to play one more year" before hanging up his boots.

The former World Cup winner, who has been linked with a move to the MLS, has represented the likes of Paris Saint-Germain, Barcelona and AC Milan during a well-travelled career.

Ronaldinho has been without a team since leaving Fluminense last September, but he insisted earlier this year that he would have a new club in the second half of 2016.

The 36-year-old has now spoken about retirement for the first time and has hinted that he will enter the music world once he has officially hung up his boots.

"I am an old man now, I am 36," he told reporters. "I am no longer 26 like I once was, and I am looking at what I can do to mark an end to my career. The plan is to play one more year. I am immersed in new projects, related to music and football which are, as you know, my two passions."

Ronaldinho's professional career began at Gremio in 1998.
