Chelsea targeting Real's Robinho

Real Madrid's Brazilian forward Robinho is a transfer target for Chelsea, according to the player's agent, Wagner Ribeiro.

The impending arrival of Luiz Felipe Scolari as the new Chelsea manager -- he takes the helm officially on Tuesday -- has increased the likelihood of the move happening, Ribeiro was quoted as telling the Daily Star newspaper.

"It is not new but now with the arrival of Scolari to the bench they have increased the contact," Ribeiro said. "I expect there to be an official contact between the clubs this week."
