Veteran star Ronaldinho with whom Turkish team Antalyaspor had expected to sign recently, has joined Rio side Fluminense on Sunday, the fourth Brazilian club of his widely-traveled career. The 35-year-old, a former 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 (2011-2012) and Atletico Mineiro (2012-2014) 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.

Meanwhile, Sydney FC has signed Slovakian international forward Filip Holosko as their marquee A-League player on a two-year deal, the club said yesterday. The Sky Blues snapped up the forward from Turkish giants Beşiktaş where he spent eight years, scoring 42 goals in 144 games. Holosko, 31, has played in the UEFA Champions League and UEFA Cup competitions for Beşiktaş and has 65 caps for Slovakia. Holosko joins former Serbian international and Dynamo Kiev midfielder Milos Ninkovic as Sydney FC's major signings ahead of the new A-League season in October.
