Guillem Balague; The Robinho transfer to Chelsea has been in the balance right up until the 11th hour, largely due to a number of differences of opinion at the Bernabeu. The situation had been fairly unpredictable and conflicting reports were coming out of the Bernabeu: until now.
Madrid have now finally moved to end the saga and the message coming out of Madrid is clear: Real Madrid will not sell Robinho to Chelsea during this transfer window.
As far as Real Madrid are concerned - or rather - as far as the president is concerned, it is a question of dignity. Ramon Calderon had been under pressure, including from his own sporting director, Pedrag Mijatovic, to cede to the player's wishes and allow him to leave.
Unlucky Chelsea =D
