Charlton Athletic have reportedly turned down the chance to sign Brazilian playmaker Rivaldo.
The 39-year-old former Barcelona favourite currently plays for Angolan side Kabuscorp.
The player's agent is thought to have contacted the League One leaders over a potential free transfer, according to the Daily Mail.
However, manager Chris Powell opted against signing the World Cup winner.
