Robinho completes Man City to Milan switch

Robinho has left Manchester City to sign a four-year deal with Italian giants AC Milan.

The 26-year old Brazil international has been set for an Eastlands exit for some time and City were finally able to rid themselves of him for £22million.

City are said to be relieved to get his massive wage bill off their books and will receive an initial £18million with £4million in bonuses according to Mirror Football.

Robinho said he was delighted to have joined AC and plans to be successful at the San Siro.

"I hope to meet my new team-mates and become a champion with them,” he said after his medical this afternoon.

"I'm very happy. Milan are an excellent club."

He is very talented but not a good player to have him in any team. His previos spell at Santos, Madrid and City tells all. City must be celebrating a lot by now. Shame Milan they will be in serious trouble.

milan?? just a name.. . .

Strike3dx, Robinho is a top player, and was arguably Brazil's best player at the world cup. It was neither his fault or Man City's that his move there went sour. He wanted to go to Chelsea, City offered more, and Real Madrid wanted rid of him. I'm suprised City managed to recoup such a large chunk of his transfer fee, but I'm sure they are grateful to have his wages off the bill. As a Man Utd fan, I wouldn't have minded him being at the club, as I'm sure the supporters of other big clubs would think the same of him.
