Robinho is pleased to return to Brazil after completing his loan switch back to Santos.

The forward, who is in his third spell at the club, has admitted he’s grown tired of playing in Europe.

“I always thought that if ever I came back to Brazil it would be with Santos,” he told Globoesporte.com. “It didn’t just depend on me, Milan had to agree to it too. To come back to Santos is an honour.

“I hope to continue at Santos for a long time. It depends on Milan too, I have a contract with them.

“Europe is not in my thoughts, I have played there enough.”
