DUBAI, United Arab Emirates (AP): Ronaldinho is in Brazil to negotiate a transfer after being allowed to leave the team's training camp in Dubai, AC Milan coach Massimiliano Allegri said Sunday.
"It's just a decision by him to change his life, go back to Brazil," Allegri told The Associated Press. "It's difficult for him to come back."
Brazilian clubs Gremio, Flamengo and Palmeiras have said they are interested in the playmaker.
Ronaldinho's departure on Saturday came just days after AC Milan director Umberto Gandini said the Italian club planned to keep him. His agent, however, has been negotiating the player's release.
Milan beat United Arab Emirates club Al Ahli 2-1 in an exhibition match in Dubai on Sunday.
Ronaldinho, a two-time FIFA player of the year, has been playing sporadically with Milan and recently said he wanted to return to Brazilian football to improve his chances of getting back in the national team.
