Robinho has been having a good season with Los Merengues thus
far and his goals have kept them at the top of La Liga, often
rescuing the team from poor displays, as was the case against
Recreativo Huelva.
Talks of a new contract have been doing the rounds over the last
few weeks, but it appears that Robinho's stint at the Bernabeu
almost came to an end last summer.
“It will be necessary to see what the club want,” Ribeiro told EFE
Radio. “Robinho likes Madrid and he has adapted well here and he
has always been professional.
“Last Summer I spoke to Pedrag Mijatovic and I told him that
Robinho was not happy because Capello always kept him on the bench
and he was not playing him.
“I told him that Robinho had an offer from Arsenal and that if he
continued on the bench then he would move to London, but Mijatovic
told me that my client would be the best in the world and that he
would not be leaving."
