AC Milan in talks with Manchester City to get Robinho

Manchester City is in talks with an AC Milan agent to get ace Brazilian striker Robinho.

Milan president and Italian Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi confirmed interest in Robinho.

“If a certain player interests us and is functional to our needs then we will be ready for another hit. If it was up to me I would take Robinho,” The Sun quoted Berlusconi, as saying.

Robinho, 26, became the British record signing when he joined City from Real Madrid for £32.5 million two years ago.

Robinho quit City last winter to join his first club Santos on loan until the end of the season in order to salvage his World Cup place with Brazil.

Robinho will join a Milan attacking force of Ronaldinho, Alexandre Pato and Ibrahimovic.
