Veteran star Ronaldinho joined Rio de Janeiro side Fluminense, the fourth Brazilian club of his widely-travelled career.
The 35-year-old, a former FIFA World Cup™ winner, started his career with hometown club Gremio of Porto Alegre before moving to Europe where he starred with Paris Saint-Germain, Barcelona and AC Milan.
He then returned to Brazil representing Flamengo (2011-12) and Atletico Mineiro (2012-14) with who he won the Copa Libertadores in 2013. "I came here with the intention of writing history with this great club and to work hard," said Ronaldinho at his presentation at Rio's Maracana after moving from Queretaro in Mexico.
The move comes after saying he was set to join former Barcelona team-mate Samuel Eto'o at Turkish side Antalyaspor.
