MEXICO CITY, June 20 (Reuters) - Former FIFA world player of the year Ronaldinho has terminated his contract with Mexico's Queretaro and said goodbye in a letter on his Facebook page.
Ronaldinho, a member of Brazil's 2002 World Cup winning team, joined Queretaro last September amid much fanfare and high hopes and helped them to a surprise place in the Clausura championship final which they lost to Santos Laguna last month.
"I want to thank the Mexican nation with all my heart for all the days I spent with such special people, you will always be in my heart," Ronaldinho said in the letter, adding that his contract with Queretaro was terminated on Friday.
