Arjen Robben's father insists the Dutch winger may have
signed a new Chelsea contract if he had been offered the kind of
money reported in some quarters. Hans Robben, who also acts as the
23-year-old's agent, admitted that a move to Spanish giants Real
Madrid - who have made little secret of their interest in the
player - was still an option.
But he denied that his son had turned down a lavish £90,000 per
week deal to remain at Stamford Bridge. He told the Daily Star:
"It's been reported Arjen's been offered £90,000 a week. Maybe if
it was he would have signed.
"In fact, the new contract wasn't really a new contract. It was no
good so we turned it down. "Maybe he'll go to Madrid or maybe he'll
stay and serve out his current two-year contract," he added.
