Gremio are convinced they can sign AC Milan superstar Ronaldinho on a free transfer.
The Brazilian is thought to be on his way out of San Siro after spending most of the season on the bench.
"I am optimistic, as we have a great chance of concluding the deal so we can bring Ronaldinho to Gremio," President Paulo Odone announced.
"We cannot do anything until January 1, as we must wait until the player resolves his rapport with Milan directly. Then we can make the move."
