The Brazilian playmaker is thought to be on his way out of San Siro this summer, with Besiktas, Orlando City and Santos those linked.

Flamengo have also been touted as potential suitors, but the club’s President has insisted that is not the case.

“There is nothing concrete as far as the arrival of Robinho to Flamengo goes,” Eduardo Bandeira de Mello told SporTV.

“When going through with a reinforcement of this size, it must be a project with investors and companies that want to associate their image with the player.

“This has to be planned carefully. At the moment we are still experiencing difficulties.”

Milan have to sell Robinho before bringing in another attacker, with Joel Campbell, Douglas Costa and Hatem Ben Arfa the names in the hat.
