Ribiero & Chelsea FC Top Directive Peter Kenyon heralded the done
deal: REAL MADRID Brazilian forward ROBINHO was headed to
London. So confident was Chelsea that their 35M€ offer was to be
accepted that they placed on their Web page yesterday the availability
of buying the new Robinho Chelsea shirt. But something has gone
wrong & against the script.
Chelsea withdraw the Web offer hours later when it seemed that Real
Madrid announced to the English Club that Robinho would stay &
would not be transferred.
Whats going on? There are numerous rumours flying about from
all sources that are confusing & contradictory, lets attempt to see the
big picture. There are dos groups - the Madrid based Sporting papers
(Marca/AS) & the other papers (Elmundo.es/Mundo Deportivo/Sport)
- that give different angles.
Madrid Based Papers:
(A) They have announced today that Real Madrid has
rejected Chelsea FC latest offer of 35M€ & that the player will stay.
They cite the fact that Coach Schuster has expressed his desire to have
Robinho in his team & not to sell.
(B) The same papers cite that Real Madrid is angry with Chelsea for
putting on its Web site the availabilty of Robinho´s shirt, as they see it
as a "dirty" tactic of pressuring the Club.
(C) The papers, put the blame on Robinho´s representative Wagner
Ribiero in masterminding everything in the shadows & giving Chelsea´s
Peter Kenyon false hopes.
(D) Real Madrid has always said that 40M€ is the amount to begin
talking & 35M€ is still to low.
The other Papers:
(A) Yes, the operation has been stopped.
(B) The reason, that Real Madrid has´nt any player to announce
as a new signning publically to replace Robinho. They need to do so to
reduce the backlash from its ground based supporters & members.
(C) Carzola (Villareal) & Villa (Valencia) said NO to Real, this has
put Real in a further bad position with its supporters & public image.
(D) Real Madrid asked Chelsea for DROGBA - it was rejected.
(E) To find a solution, Football Director Pedja Mijatovic attempted
desperately yesterday to re-open the Kaka & Cristiano Ronaldo
options at Monaco ( Uefa Champions draw) - not successful.
(F) Only other names at this moment - PSG forward Boli & Joaquin
(Valencia) - but these are surreal & not "class names".
According to Elmundo.es, this explains why Chelsea withdraw from
its Web Robinho´s shirt - to respect Real Madrid wish to announce
a substitute beforehand. The fact that Chelsea has sold Wright -
Phillips yesterday to Manchester City gives evidence of a deal between
Real Madrid - Chelsea. That Real Madrid maybe pressuring Chelsea
to let go Drogba & finally that Peter Kenyon is staying in Madrid for
the new events gives signal that it´s not all shut
So which news is right? Real Madrid announce that Robinho WILL
NOT be transferred & that it´s all an operation of Robinho´s
representative working in the shadows OR that Real Madrid is looking
desperately to find a replacement before letting go of its Brazilian
player?
SFS believes in the following - Yes, there was a deal. But the fact that
Cazorla & Villa said NO to Real Madrid torpedoed everything. Real
Madrid has´nt a "class name" to announce as a substitution & will not
transfer Robinho until it has one.
There is 3 days left, anything could happen...Drogba be offered for
example, which may put back in course the opeartion, but until then,
Robinho - for the moment - will stay at Real Madrid. This is the
Football CIRCUS were players are just meat to trade. Stay tuned, the
fat lady has´nt sang as yet. Tweet

Striker - this is a GREAT post. All of the speculation during transfer season gets a bit ridiculous, but by compiling and comparing the reports, you do a great job peicing together the likely story. Keep up the good work!
