Brazil star Robinho is unlikely to move to Arsenal even if the Santos striker's move to Real Madrid collapses, according to his agent Wagner Ribeiro. Arsenal are reportedly ready to top Madrid's �11.3m offer for the striker.
But Ribeiro says Robinho, 21, will not move to England as he feels the Spanish game will suit his style of play.
"I will not take the Arsenal proposal to Santos president Marcelo Teixeira as they do not have a chance of signing the player," Ribeiro told Brazilian TV.
Robinho's transfer from Santos to Madrid appeared to be nearly finalised last week, with the move set to be confirmed after he had fulfilled his commitments with Brazil at the Confederations Cup.
But another agent of Robinho's, Juan Figer, said Santos could hold out for more than Madrid's offer.
