Ronaldinho will make a decision about his future after the Confederations Cup, his brother and agent Roberto Assis announced today.

"Manchester United, Paris St Germain and Barcelona are still interested in Ronnie but it won't be until the final of the Confederations Cup on June 29th that we'll announce Ronnie's departure or if he's staying at PSG," Assis said.

Ronaldinho is playing for world champions Brazil in the tournament in France. Brazil are due to meet Cameroon in their opening match later this evening and are favourites to reach the final. Turkey and the USA make up the Group B line-up.

Hosts France are the Group A favourites and will meet New Zealand, Japan and Colombia in the pool stage.
