Chelsea: The Fight For Robinho Continues

Just when you think Real Madrid can’t sink any lower than they already have this summer, they prove you wrong again. Because despite Kenyon’s continued optimism around the possible signing of Robinho, Real have other ideas.

Even yesterday, during the World Exclusive’ press conference to announce not some major signing but what would usually have been a routine contract extension for any other club, Kenyon insisted negotiations over a potential deal for the Brazilian were ‘continuing’.

And yet, despite their pretty shoddy treatment of Robinho during the summer, Real have already turned down Chelsea’s initial offer of £19.7million with Ramon Calderon suggesting the player will “definitely stay” with the Spanish club.

The player himself, who has previously stated It would be a dream for me to work with Luiz Felipe Scolari, who is one of the best coaches in the world”, is said to be far from happy to stay at Real and plans to call a press conference this week to announce his desire to move to Chelsea. Whilst his agent, Wagner Ribeiro continues to champion his cause, as he has done all summer, insisting Real have “failed to value him as he deserves.”

But whilst Kenyon’s crossing his fingers and telling us “We’ve still got a few days left of the window. Hopefully we’ll get a result”, the word from Calderon is that Real Madrid ‘have no intention of selling Robinho to Chelsea.’

Trouble is, with Kenyon and Calderon, it’s anyone’s guess who’s word we should take!
