Roberto Carlos have signed for Corinthians and will re-join former Real Madrid teammate Ronaldo at the Brazilian club.

He also announced to the fans that he wants to help them win its first Copa Libertadores title.

The 36-year-old defender spent 15 years in European football and has now signed a two-year contract with Corinthians.

He also plans to end his career at the club after leaving Turkish side Fenerbahce last month.

"It's an important year for Corinthians, playing the Libertadores in its centennial," he told the Canadian Press.

"This title would mean the same, or even more, than the (Champions League) I won with Real Madrid in Europe. It's one of the few titles I haven't won in my career."

Carlos is also targetting a return to the Brazil international squad, He feels he is fit and hopes that good performances with Corinthians this year could open the door to a return to the national team for the first time since the 2006 World Cup.
