Robinho starts Santos training if Real Madrid sale guaranteed

The agent of Santos star Robinho says the Brazilian is willing to return to training.

Robinho has been in self-imposed exile since Santos president Marcelo Teixeira refused to sell him to Real Madrid last month.

The player's agent, Wagner Ribeiro, says Robinho will return to Santos training if Teixiera signs an agreement stating that he will allow the player to leave for Real Madrid if an offer of £20 million is made.

"The transfer could be made this week, or at the latest the start of next week," assured Ribeiro to AS.
