Robinho: Playing for an English Club has been my dream

August 23, 2008

Chelsea, already looking a formidable side and challengers to the Championship title of the Barclays Premier League, is looking to grow even stronger with a possibility of another Brazilian flavor to be added in their ranks.

Robinho, currently playing as a forward for the Spanish Giants Real Madrid, has asserted his wish to move on to the London Club. According to sources, he is not interested in continuing his career at Bernabeu.

It has been in news that the Brazilian superstar was very upset with the authorities for not allowing him to represent his country at the 2008 Beijing Olympics.

However, Robinho dismissed any such controversy. Instead, he said that playing for an English club has been his dream and this is the only reason for his interest in the Blues.

He made it clear that although he respected the Spanish club and its players along with the Spanish supporters, who have always cheered him, he can consider Chelsea’s offer.

According to Robinho, this offer is both profitable for him as well as the Real Madrid club. With the pool of talent constantly growing at the Stamford Bridge Side, the Brazilian magician is wishing to be playing alongside them.

Robinho’s agent, Ribeiro, has spoken out on Wednesday that if Chelsea were to offer a sum of $59 million for the star player, the club might finalize the deal.

On the other hand Robinho’s desperation was clearly visible, when he stated that he was not interested in the amount but wanted to leave his current club as early as possible.
