Real Madrid should allow Robinho to join Chelsea according to goalkeeper Iker Casillas.
Spain international Casillas understands his Brazilian team-mate wishes to sign a long-term contract with The Blues and he has urged chairman Ramon Calderon to accept his request.
The European champion wants his squad to be composed of players who are committed to the cause, which is not the case with the wantaway Robinho.
Casillas, probably the best shot-stopper in action at present, is adamant the atmosphere within Los Merengues’ dressing room will be better without a player who is desperate to leave.
“Robinho doesn’t want to stay, that’s why the club must find him a way out,” Casillas told Spanish reporters. “They’ll have to transfer him for the right price for the good of Real Madrid.
“We want to keep a very united and strong squad. If Robinho wants to leave we have to help him find a new place to be.
“The most we can obtain for the player is the best for the club.
“At this hour a Real Madrid professional player must be focused on this club, not on another one that is not paying him.”

Casillas is 100% correct, a player wanting to leave has a negative effect on a side - look at Berbatov and Spurs.
