Manchester City To Include Robinho In Offer For Barcelona Striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic - Report
The Brazilian could finally sign for the Blaugrana...
By Luis Mira
The Brazilian winger joined Santos on loan in January in a bid to find regular first-team action ahead of the World Cup after being relegated to the periphery at Eastlands.
He has recently indicated he hopes for an extended Santos stay, but City are believed to be interested in either cashing in on him or including him in one of their summer deals.
According to publication Sport, the 26-year-old could be used as make-weight in the Premier League side's push for Ibrahimovic, whom City boss Roberto Mancini highly regards after coaching him during his time with Inter Milan.
Robinho was strongly tipped with a move to the Camp Nou last summer, having even gone as far as to make his interest in the move public.
With Barcelona understood to be looking for a new man for their left flank, chances are that they will study the possibility of having Robinho in their ranks very carefully.
