Despite recently stating that he would love to stay at Santos, Robinho is not prepared to take a cut in his salary.
The skilful winger is demanding £1.8 million in addition to his regular salary in order to stay plus £1 million in unpaid image rights from the last 5 months.
Santos are currently in financial difficulty so despite Robinho’s wish to stay at the club he may well have to move on if he doesn’t reduce his money demands.
“My desire is to stay,” said Robinho. “Not just for another year, but for a while longer.”
If Santos were to give in to demands they could generate the cash through the sale of Felipe Anderson who is of interest to Manchester United.
