According to Spanish newspaper As, PSV Eindhoven want to re-sign crocked Brazilian star Ronaldo.
Ronaldo’s future is uncertain as he is currently a free agent. Indeed for a while his whole career was believed to be in jeopardy after he severed a tendon in his knee playing for Milan against Livorno in February.
After a successful operation in Paris, it was revealed that he would be out of action for at least nine months, although a more likely return date was said to be in 2009.
Although Ronaldo’s rehabilitation is said to be going well, and well ahead of schedule, Milan have refused to offer him a new deal to the contract that ran out at the end of June.
This means that El Fenomeno is now unattached, although there are still some sections of the press who believe that Milan are prepared to hand him a new deal once he proves his fitness.
Nevertheless, As claims that PSV have contacted Ronaldo to try and convince him to return to Eindhoven.
The 31-year-old played for the Dutch giants from 1994 to 1996, and was a massive hit, scoring 42 goals in just 45 games, before moving to Barcelona.
The transfer will be complicated though, as there are also reports that Ronaldo has an agreement with Brazilian club Flamengo.

Pablo García has had his contract rescinded by Real Madrid to allow him to search for a new club on a permament basis after two seasons out on loan.
The Uruguayan midfielder joined Los Merengues in 2005 after three impressive seasons at Osasuna, but he never repeated that form at the Bernabéu.
In his first year at the club, García made 22 appearances but having been signed by Vanderlei Luxemburgo, he was unable to impress Juan Ramón López Caro.
A season on loan with Celta Vigo followed and last summer he was told that he would once again be lent out and agreed to join newly-promoted Real Murcía.
Now Bernd Schuster and Madrid want to trim the squad and after speaking to García and his agent they have agreed to cancel his current deal to allow him to move on.
“Real Madrid and Pablo Garcia have reached an agreement to rescind the Uruguayan player’s contract, leaving him unattached to the whites,” a statement on the Madrid website read.
“Real Madrid want to thank the player for his services to the club and wish him the best sporting success.”

Samuel Eto’o could start the new season at Barcelona after making no effort to look for a new club and rejecting offers from various teams that have made moves.
The Cameroonian striker is said to not be part of new coach Pep Guardiola’s plans, but he will not be pushed out of Camp Nou and is no hurry to make any decisions.
Chelsea, AC Milan, Tottenham and Manchester City have all been linked with a move for Eto’o only for no concrete move to be made for one reason or another.
Any interested clubs will have to meet or top the former Mallorca goalscorer’s current wages and that has already proved to be a stumbling block.
Juande Ramos’ Spurs side were unable to match Eto’o’s demands due to their wage cap, while Manchester City preferred to focus on Ronaldinho.
Milan have now turned their attentions to Emmanuel Adebayor after deciding against a move for Eto’o due to Barcleona’s high asking price and will not be back in for him.
Finally, Chelsea’s appointment of Luis Felipe Scolari put paid to the Blues making a firm offer because the Brazilian coach is keen to keep Didier Drogba at the club.
Eto’o is currently on holiday and has made it clear that he will only hear what Barça have to say when he returns next week for pre-season training.
With a contract that runs until 2010, he knows that he does not have to go anywhere and could yet play a major role for the club next term if he can win over Guardiola.
