Report: Ronaldinho contemplating move away from Queretaro

Less than four months since signing and with fewer than 10 league games played, Ronaldinho could be on his way out of Queretaro.

The 34-year-old forward showed up to the club's preseason on Boxing Day -- almost three weeks after the rest of the players -- and is yet to train. A report in MedioTiempo suggested that the Brazilian star is tempted by a move to MLS outfit Orlando City, while Angolan side Kabuscorp do Palanca released a statement on its official website saying its president is set to negotiate with Ronaldinho's brother and agent.

Early Tuesday, a story on ESPN Mexico said Ronaldinho -- who has reportedly had family issues to resolve in the offseason -- indicated he would be continuing with Gallos Blancos until the summer, after discussions between the player and club came to a satisfactory conclusion for both parties. Ronaldinho signed a two-year deal with Queretaro in a shock move after his spell with Atletico Mineiro in Brazil.

 

But his new team failed to make the playoffs in Ronaldinho's first season, despite it being in the top eight when the Brazilian signed.

 

Ronaldinho's situation is even more pertinent for the club set to miss his fellow Brazilian, striker Camilo Sanvezzo, for the the Clausura season -- which begins on Jan. 9 -- with a ligament injury to his left knee.
