Robinho struck what is likely to prove his farewell goal in English football in Manchester City’s 4-2 FA Cup fourth round win at Scunthorpe and seems to be heading back to Brazil whether Roberto Mancini likes it or not.

Manchester City forward Robinho has confirmed he is set to leave Eastlands, with a return to Santos the likely destination.

ROBINHO believes his ambition to be the best player in the world would be better served playing for Barcelona than Manchester City, although he insists he is not trying to force a move away from the Premier League side.
