Man City striker Robinho focused on Brazilian team

Manchester City's Robinho says he is solely focused on the job at hand with the Brazilian national team.

The former Real Madrid star was loaned out to homeland club Santos from City during last season and his future at Eastlands looks shaky.

But for the moment, he is happy to contribute to Brazil's campaign as the Samba kings strive for an unprecedented sixth world title.

"I'm very happy with the goal and victory of my team and if I am able to be the best player and top scorer in the World Cup 2010 that will be fine but at the moment I'm concentrating my efforts on the team," he said after he scored in the 3-0 Round of 16 win over Chile on Monday night.
