The player I'm going to introduce today is a player with fantastic dribbling and excellent scoring skills. Who was this player who was noted as the second Pele?

With a small, dwarf physique of 172CM 61KG, the player was noted as the second Pele. Neymar, once the most anticipated player in Brazil, was also an idol, but at the end of his career, he became a criminal and became a symbol of Brazilian soccer's misfortune. His name Robinho.

His Start

Born in 1984 in Sao Vicente of Brasil to a business cook mother and a salesman father, Robinho was different from others in his childhood to the extent that rumors spread that he was the best ball player in the town of Sao Vicente village. It was through futsal games that made him famous. Futsal team captain Robinho has scored 73 goals in a season, and despite his young and small physique, his outstanding skills have made him a big fan.

 

Pele did these interviews with 15-year-old Robinho. "I have all the conditions to become a much better player than I am," he said. And Tim Santos, who showed interest in Robinho, approached him and in 2002, Robinho signed his first professional contract at the age of 18. Until just before his professional contract, Robinho continued to improve his soccer skills with futsal. After being intoxicated with individual play, coaches began to teach their peers how to play.

2002 Santos and Robinho

Robinho, who joined Santos in 2002, led Santos to win the Brazilian league title in 2002 and 2004 with fantastic dribbling and goal determination. Especially in 2003, he was the main character in the final of "Copa Libertadores." Robinho, who scored 21 goals in 37 games in 2004, was selected as Brazil's most anticipated player along with Diego of Flamengo. Meanwhile, in 2004, Real Madrid president Florentino Perez met fans shouting for Robinho. At this time, Real Madrid was defeated by El Clásico.

 

Robinho, who had been offered a proposal from the prestigious European teams since 2004, decided to give up his stay in Santos and go to Europe after his family was kidnapped. Twenty-one-year-old Robinho, who finally made his big league debut in July 2005 with a 32.5 billion transfer to Spain's Real Madrid, who was rebuilding the team with famous and outstanding players, gave Luis Figo's number 10. The reason is that Robinho was able to boast about the stadium or poster as a symbol of the next generation.

Robinho, who also scored two goals and three assists in the Confederations Cup, showed his skills in any position, including strikers, side forwards and attacking midfielders. Playing in his first game of the 2005/2006 season, Robinho used his individual skills to throw his opponents into confusion, and fans were fascinated by him. Robinho was chosen as the best prospect by 29.5 percent, beating Wayne Rooney. At this time, Robinho was named in Real Madrid, and Lionel Messi became the youngest scorer in the club in Barcelona, so the two began to be compared.

 

They were similar in height, from South America, and their excellent dribbling skills. In November 2005, there was a match between two players with the number 10 jersey, and with the help of Messi, Barcelona won Real Madrid. The team's tactical problems have forced Real Madrid to leave the club while losing the title to Barcelona. Eventually Robinho wandered around and the 2006 World Cup was enough to put him in a more slump. In the World Cup in Germany, Robinho did not play very well due to the team's poor performance and was injured in the round of 16. And it became Brazil, which failed to advance to the World Cup finals for the first time since 1994.

 

In the summer of 2006, Capello took over Real Madrid, which recruited outstanding strikers, and Robinho's position gradually disappeared and was gradually pushed out of the starting lineup. But it wasn't Robinho that was going to collapse. In South America, Robinho scored six goals to greatly contribute to Brazil's victory, and the MVP was also his place. And then Robinho won the top scorer title for the first time. Aside from his team Real Madrid winning the league title, Robinho was far from the team's main player. Then came the news that Cristiano Ronaldo would be recruited from Manchester United to Real Madrid, when rumors began to emerge that Robinho would be used as a bargaining chip.

 

After Raul and Van Nistelrooy in the 2007/2008 season, Robinho was third in scoring and second in helping but felt that Real Madrid no longer trusted him, so he decided to leave Real Madrid. Real Madrid's president promised to sign Robinho throughout the season and said he was worth 96 billion won, but he didn't offer a new contract until the end of the season. And Pele withdrew his support, disappointed at the news that Robinho was leaving Real Madrid for Manchester City. Finally, Robinho was given a uniform for Manchester City, England, in September 2009 for 56 billion won. Robinho had previously wanted to sign a contract with Chelsea, but he had to choose Manchester City due to the difference in money between 카지노사이트teams.

Manchester City and Robinho

On September 1, 2008, Robinho, the league's highest transfer fee, was the starting point. In his debut, Robinho scored in the 13th minute, showing his enduring scoring instinct, followed by a hat trick. Robinho motivated his teammates to take their team to the next level of strength. The start was good with 11 goals in the first half of the 2008/2009 season, but it was sluggish in the second half. Both the club and fans expressed disappointment to Robinho, who had a social scandal without scoring a single goal for four months in the second half.

 

While Robinho was injured, Bellamy was surprisingly active and led Manchester City to fourth place in the league, and Robinho's presence in the team gradually diminished. And the ace role was changed from Robinho to Tevez in 2009, when Manchester City handed over the 10th uniform to Tevez, and now Robinho has vowed to return home and is back in Santos, Brazil in early 2010. Manchester City, which invested more than 50 billion dollars in Robinho, was forced to sell Robinho for less than 50 percent of the money. Robinho, who eventually moved to AC Milan for 25 billion, made a big contribution to the league title by scoring 15 goals in his debut season. However, he has scored only 6 goals since then and had the worst season with 2 goals in the 2012/2013 season. And finally, in the summer of 2014, he returned to Santos for the third time. It wasn't a complete transfer, but now the football world's gaze at Robinho has cooled down and has been excluded from the 2014 World Cup in Brazil.

his last

Robinho, who was born a star but eventually became a victim after being overshadowed by other stars, moved to Guangzhou, China in 2015. He was able to join without transfer fees because his contract with AC Milan was over, but he ended the contract with only six months, nine games and three goals. Forgotten by people, Robinho returned to Brazil in 2016 to play as a left striker, scoring 12 goals and seven assists in 30 games, but his past explosive power dropped because he was over 30 years old, but Turkey's Shivaspor wanted him. Robinho, who has played in the Turkish league since 2017, was released from the team with only 15 scoreless games in 2020 and announced his fourth return to Santos in October 2020 with a five-month contract of $1,300.

 

It wasn't strange for 36-year-old Robinho to retire, but he decided to move after hearing about the difficult team situation. Robinho says he will retire from Santos, saying, "Now it's my turn to give back as much as Santos has given me for me." However, in the case of Robinho's sexual assault, Santos withdrew his sponsorship and eventually terminated his contract with Robinho. Robinho's passion for soccer was always overflowing when he was young or old. It is because winning 13 times and participating in 100 A matches is not an easy result. Brazil has produced countless soccer players, but there are many players who have fallen and Robinho is now an indispensable figure. I wonder if Robinho, once a soccer player loved by soccer fans, will be able to wear his soccer uniform again.
