will be back training at Carrington with City when the squad resumes
training there next week, Mark Hughes has confirmed this morning.
The Brazilian striker left the Blues' training camp earlier this week, and speaking to mcfc.co.uk
in Tenerife on Thursday morning the Manager has stated that he has
spoken to the player and that he will be returning to Manchester to
rejoin the squad.
Mark said: "Robbie left without permission, he
felt that he had personal things that he needed to attend to. He made
the decision to leave the camp, and go back to Brazil. That was not
with my permission, and the situation at the moment is not really
practical to get him back here with time differences and length of
flights, so he will be back at the weekend ready to train when we are
back in Manchester at the first available opportunity.
"Once he
is back, I will sit down with him and explain my feelings, and
decisions will be made after that. He has rung me, and he understands
that we need to address this - and we will. Then we will move on.
"He
obviously felt that there were certain things that he needed to address
back home, and so, wrongly, he made that decision to go back to Brazil.
But he will be back at the weekend, then we will make sure that he
knows my feelings and I am sure we will get a more detailed explanation
from Robbie."
The Manager also rubbished speculation in the media
that Robinho's decision to leave the training camp was connected to the
end of City's interest in signing his Brazilian international team mate
Kaka from AC Milan.
"He has already said that himself, and he was
on a plane back to Brazil when the Kaka deal was dead and buried.
People trying to link the two are trying to cause a little bit of
mischief."
