The Robinho saga has picked up pace some more now. There are quotes over the weekend attributed to Robinho claiming he wants to come to Chelsea. His agent has also said that Robinho has told Madrid he wants to leave. Finally Kenyon has this morning confirmed that we are interested in signing Robinho and that talks are ongoing with Madrid......

That means things are serious, and there is a very good chance Robinho will be at Stamford Bridge next season.

Yup thats what i thought. When we officially confirm interest in a player then you know that we want that player. I really really hope we can push this deal through now, Robinho would be one hell of a fantastic signing.

Brilliant lets hope they dont try get a ridiculous fee from us

First things first. Madrid have to be willing to accept any sort of fee before we can offer anything. We need this transfer to go through.

Lol, swung back the other way this afternoon. Marca claiming that Robinho has said that he wants to stay at Madrid for the long term!!

Also claiming that he will be offered a new double your money 5 year contract - unless Madrid sign Ronaldo. If that is the case i would have thought that would not have made him happy considering he was unhappy at the thought of being used in the Ronaldo transfer.....

Still plenty of time for this one to run yet.

Next stage of the Robinho saga is that there is talks about a possible swap deal involving Drogba going to Madrid and Robinho comming to us..

It is a deal that could possibly work, with Drogba seemingly still not content to pledge his future to Chelsea we could use him to get our main and only target.

Yeah saw this -an alleged £40 million swap deal. Hopefully Drogba will stay, Essiens been rumoured to have been pressurising him not to go...

To me those comments from Essien seem to point to Drogba wanting to go...

I think getting a first class winger in is vitally important. If Drogba wants to go and Real are willing to do a deal on this basis then i say get it done.

The Robinho deal seems to be getting closer all the time now. Which is very exciting for us, lets hope we can get it done for the start of the season at least.

The danger is Madrid know how fat Romans wallet is and Kenyons been given a ceiling so there'll be a stalemate, and another lesser player will be bought in. Have to wait and see...

It is interesting i think that since Kenyons comments Madrid have gone very quiet on this subject all of a sudden! Still hoping this one goes though, he is exactly the sort of player we need.

It would be an incredible signing -and maybe the silence is significant. Hopefully smiling soon holding up a shirt with a grinning Kenyon...

I would kiss Kenyon right on top of his bald shiney head if he can bring us Robinho!!! :D

Talk from Spain today claiming that he has turned down a contract offer from Madrid, hopefully again this is true and a sign that Robinho is ready to push a move through now.

Chelsea have confirmed that their pursuit of Robinho remains a work in progress. The Brazilian has been quoted as expressing an interest in joining the Blues, although conflicting reports have suggested that he wishes to remain at Real Madrid and has agreed a new five-year contract with the Primera Liga champions.

Despite the ongoing rumours surrounding a potential deal, Chelsea chief executive Peter Kenyon revealed on Thursday that discussions with Madrid are ongoing and the player may yet arrive at Stamford Bridge.

"The speculation surrounding Chelsea in any transfer window is enormous," he

said.

"We have confirmed we are interested in Robinho and have had some conversations with the club. That is ongoing and as the coach has said, he is a player we have identified as a talent.

"If we could get him it would add to what we have got, but if it doesn't happen, the objectives of Chelsea are not going to change."

Luiz Felipe Scolari refused to get drawn into the debate surrounding the Real playmaker, only adding that he was an admirer of his countryman's considerable ability.

"Robinho is a great player, he plays for one of the best teams in the world and also Brazil," said the 59-year-old, who guided the South Americans to World

Cup glory in 2002.

"But at the moment it is not more than speculation. It is the time of the year for speculation, it is the time for agents to put one player here and then there."

The new Chelsea chief also confirmed that the club expect to learn more about the full extent of Jose Bosingwa's injury status once the Portugal international has undergone a scan on a thigh complaint on Friday.
