Ronaldo, whose contract expires with the Brazilian club on Dec. 31, 2011, announced the news during a press conference this afternoon.
The big striker said, "I have extended my contract for another two years and that will be the last of my career...I want to give my all, have fun and finish with some major achievements."

Here's a video clip of some of his best highlights:
