Robinho out of Real squad but not gone yet

Real Madrid coach Bernd Schuster is refusing to give up hope that Chelsea target Robinho will still be at the Bernabeu this season, despite leaving the winger out of his squad for Sunday’s league opener at Deportivo La Coruna.

Schuster opted to omit the Brazil international from his 18-man squad for the trip to Galicia as he felt the 24-year-old was not in the right frame of mind to play due to the situation surrounding his future.
