Barcelona president reveals Robinho bid

Barcelona president Joan Laporta has revealed that they have had a bid for Brazilian forward Robinho rejected by Manchester City.

Robinho has been linked with a move to City since the summer and reports have suggested that a deal could be agreed during the January transfer window.

But Laporta insists a deal is no longer on the cards and the club is unlikely to add to the squad in January.

“We are pleased with our squad and if we have to do some fine-tuning we will. Our offer for Robinho was not accepted and this team we have will not be added to, unless something unforeseen arises at the last minute,” he is quoted as saying by Sport.
