Santos insist their bid for AC Milan attacker Robinho is far from over.
The Rossoneri do not intend to sell for less than 10m.
"We are talking every day," assured Santos President Luis Alvaro de Oliveira Ribeiro in Globo Esporte.
"At the moment it's like a game of chess, moving pieces here and there with the hope of finding a solution.
"We made our formal proposal and Milan sent back their reply, but the negotiations are continuing and this is not over."
