Róbson de Souza (born 25 January 1984 in São Vicente), more commonly known as Robinho, is a Brazilian professional footballer who currently plays as a striker for Serie A club Milan, and is also a member of the Brazilian national team. Robinho was personally picked by Brazil legend Pelé as his heir apparent at only 15 years of age and went on to lead Santos to their first Campeonato Brasileiro title since Pelé himself played for the club. Since then he has won another title with Santos and two more with Spanish club Real Madrid. Robinho has won one Copa América title and two Confederations Cups with Brazil.
Robinho returned to training with Manchester City in August 2010 but stated that he was seeking a move away from the club before the end of the summer transfer window on 31 August. Fenerbahçe and Besiktas opened transfer negotiations with Manchester City but Robinho rejected a move to Turkish football, declaring that he would rather move to a club in Spain or Italy. On 31 August 2010, Robinho moved to A.C. Milan from Manchester City after signing a four-year contract.
