SAO PAULO -- Ronaldinho is returning to the Brazilian national team for next month's exhibition game against Ghana in London.

Ronaldinho missed the 2010 World Cup and had been summoned only once by coach Mano Menezes since -- a 1-0 loss to Argentina in November.

Also returning to the squad for the Sept. 5 game are Real Madrid right back Marcelo and FC Porto striker Hulk. In addition, Menezes selected Neymar, Paulo Henrique Ganso, Lucas and Robinho.
