Again saying Robster off to Barca on loan for 6mil.

Claiming his agent and father in abu dhabi to get the deal done.

Might explain why he's gone with the squad before going to the Brazil squad too see their doctor.

BARCELONA are close to agreeing a deal for Robinho with Manchester City.
A major summit to thrash out the Brazilian's transfer will take place in Abu Dhabi tomorrow, where members of the City squad not on international duty are training.

Present will be City chief executive Garry Cook, Barca representatives, Robinho's father and the player's commercial manager Chris Nathaniel.

Initially, Robinho is expected to move on loan during the January transfer window for a £6million 'arrangement fee', with a view to a permanent switch in the summer.

City want to get back the £32.5m they paid Real Madrid for him just 15 months ago.

The player's move to City has not been a success and all parties are beginning to accept a transfer is in everyone's best interests.

Robinho has made 32 Premier League appearances and scored 14 goals. But an ankle injury means he has played only three times this season.

A source close to him said: "It is looking highly likely Robinho will get his move. Barcelona are very keen."

Get the deal done with who? Why would Barca people be in UAE?

More paper bullshit I think (and hope!)

It's starting to make me wonder if he's really been injured or hughes is protecting him to join Barca.

Lol, I missed your mistake, my point was, surely his agent would go to Barcelona?

same story been doing the rounds for months, the truth as i see it is that we turned barca down in the summer as has been mentioned by hughes many times. The press have had nothing to say about him for two months because he had a broken leg and hasnt played so have been concocting this story . I could be wrong but I dont see him going anywhere, when he is fit he will be back in the side and scoring goals for us.
