BLACKBURN Rovers target Ronaldinho is expected to seal a deal for a move to Brazilian club Gremio within the next couple of hours.
Italian sources claim the final pieces of the deal are now being put in place to secure the 30-year-old's return home from AC Milan.
Rovers owners Venky's had hoped their financial power could lure Ronaldinho to Ewood Park, although a Milan source revealed the Italian club did not recieve an approach from the East Lancashire outfit.
The deal is not yet finalised but Rovers' audacious bid to land the two-time world player of the year looks set to end in failure.
