Real wants Robben to play in Madrid …

Real Madrid reportedly want Arjen Robben to make a public declaration about wanting to move to Spain.

Spanish newspaper says that Real want Robben to put in a transfer request and start agitating for a move as the likes of Ronaldo and Robinho have in the past.

They even suggest that Real are encouraging Robben to skip training like his fellow countrymen Wesley Sneijder and Royston Drenthe to push through a move.

But Robben has apparently refused to upset Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho in the belief that a £20.3million move is in the pipeline regardless.
