It was no secret that Robinho was supposed to be a big part of Big Phils plans for Chelsea, after buying deco for £8million. Negotiations were tight enough between Chelsea & Real, but Chelsea jumped the gun and started selling Robinho embroidered Kits on there website even before they had officially signed the player.
Just because of this silly little mistake this has denied Chelsea the chance to of have signed of the great winger known as “Robinho”.
Real had accepted a bid of £32.5million from newly bought out Manchester City and challenged Chelsea for Robinho. But Chelsea weren’t willing to cough up the measly £4million to sign a great player!
Scolari was left wanting questions answered from chief executive Peter Kenyon and owner Abramovich.
An insider told The Sun
“It’s no secret that Chelsea has paid a lot of money for players in the last few years.
“Some of those players have been successful and others not so.
“Felipe understands the budget has a limit but feels that he did not ask too much of the club.
“He bought Deco for £8million and made it clear how important Robinho was to his plans for the season.
“So he is entitled to feel let down that the club would not increase its offer by £4m to get the player.”
