Robinho is the latest name to be linked with a move to Chelsea with the pulling power of new boss Luiz Felipe Scolari proving influential.The Blues are reported to have offered Real Madrid £47.8million for the forward, something they have denied.
Robinho is dismayed by plans to include him a deal to take Cristiano Ronaldo to the Bernabeu and his agent Wagner Ribeiro admits the 24-year-old is becoming restless.
"What's making Robinho seriously consider accepting Chelsea's offer is that Scolari helped him a lot when he wasn't very well known in Europe," Ribeiro told Brazilian website Globoesporte.com.
"Scolari called him up to play a game in Basle, between the Friends of Ronaldo and Friends of Zidane in 2003. Scolari spoke to Robinho and gave him strength.
"Madrid is one of the best cities in the world to live in. In other words Robinho has it all.
"The only unpleasant thing is the club's assessment of his value, and he feels undervalued for having become a part of some trade deal."

Yeah, Robinho would definitely be better for us than the Drog. And let Lampard go crying to Jose, we've got Deco! He'll only realize what he's done when Inter are eliminated by Chelsea in the group stage or the Round of 16 of the Champions League. Jose isn't going to haunt anybody except Lampard.
Come on the Blues!
that's very good of you Robinho, we all need you in chalsea and we believe you will enjoy london too
