Manchester City, 12:16, October 16, 2009 ,
Manchester City boss Mark Hughes says Robinho is in his plans at Eastlands and has blasted reports suggesting he could be sold.
Robinho, who is out of the City side at the moment through injury, has been strongly linked with a return to Spain with Barcelona but Hughes says he is staying put and is not for sale.
"There is always speculation and noise surrounding Robinho. That has been the case since he came to the club," Hughes revealed. "He is a great guy. We are not in the process of taking outstanding players out of the team.
"We want to complement the outstanding players at the club. We are looking to build, not dismantle."
