Roque Santa Cruz has confirmed reports that Robinho will join Barcelona by admitting his Manchester City team-mate is keen on the move. Robinho's Paraguayan team-mate Santa Cruz admitted that the 25 year old has openly talked of his desire to move, and that the players even make jokes about it in the City dressing room.
"Of course he talks to us about it," Santa Cruz told Catalunya Radio. "And the players are cracking jokes about it in the dressing room.
"In the English papers there's a lot of interest about Barca and Robinho is not hiding his desire to play for them one day.
"But I guess we'll see. It wouldn't be difficult (for him).
"To add a talent like Robinho to the quality of players they have would give a different air to Barca because he's got great ability and is a player who pleases crowds because of the way he plays.
"A player that good wouldn't have any problems being part of that side."
