Real not looking to sell Robinho

Real Madrid president Ramon Calderon has stated the club do not have any desire to sell Robinho.

The Brazilian has been a hot topic of debate this summer, as his future has been shrouded in doubt due to Real’s pursuit of Cristiano Ronaldo.

It had been suggested Real would look to sell Robinho in a bid to finance a blockbusting move for Manchester United star Ronaldo, with Chelsea rumoured to be in the hunt for his signature.

Real are still keen on Ronaldo, with Calderon suggesting on Monday that if he was a betting man his money would be on the Portuguese being a Madrid player next term, but he says there are no plans to sell Robinho.

”We have the intention to make very few changes, neither in arrivals nor departures,” Calderon told AS.

”The squad is young and it is strong.

”There are no direct negotiations at the moment for the exit of Robinho.”
