AC Milan star Ronaldinho has reportedly been caught partying in Paris. L'Equipe says the former World Player of the Year flew to France after Sunday's 1-1 draw with Atalanta so he could watch a Samba concert.

He got on stage and started playing percussion at L'Ermitage, a venue that charged just £6 a ticket for an event organised by Roda de Cavaco.

Last week reports claimed the Brazilian had been fined for partying just 48 hours before Milan's Champions League fixture against Zurich, a match they lost much to their embarrassment.

Eric Lovey, a Parisien friend of Ronaldinho, is quoted as saying: "Ronnie is still deeply in love with football, but he has to ask himself if he still has the desire to sacrifice himself for it."
