Real Madrid star Robinho performs Chelsea transfer U-turn

Real Madrid star Robinho, who last week spoke of his desire to work with Chelsea boss Luiz Felipe Scolari, has now committed his future to the Spanish club.

"I want to stay at Real Madrid for a long time," the 24-year-old told Spanish newspaper Marca.

"I'm very happy and I want to continue. My head is calm, I want to have a good pre-season with Real Madrid and continue here."

The Brazilian has been in talks with Real Madrid's sporting director Predrag Mijatovic, during which it is believed a new contract was discussed.

However neither the club nor the player has been willing to confirm the subject matter of those talks, with Robinho only revealing: "It's between us."
