Barcelona coach Frank Rijkaard appears resigned to Brazil playmaker Ronaldinho leaving the Nou Camp this summer.
Speculation is mounting that Ronaldinho's time at Barca is coming to an end, with AC Milan believed to be at the front of the queue to sign the two-time former World Player of the Year.
Nothing has yet been confirmed about Ronaldinho's future, but it seems Rijkaard feels the 28-year-old, who is currently sidelined with a thigh injury that could rule him out of the remainder of the campaign, will be plying his trade elsewhere next season.
Speaking in an interview with Catalan television station TV3 ahead of Tuesday's Champions League semi-final second leg against Manchester United, Rijkaard said: 'He could yet play in the last game and have the opportunity to say goodbye to the fans.
'I have the hope that he can go on and show everyone the great player that he is. I am with him. I will never forget what he has done for this club.'
