Chelsea's Robben closer to Real Madrid move


Chelsea's pursuit of Real Madrid wing-back Roberto Carlos has opened the door to Arjen Robben winning a move to Spain.
Robben's father and agent, Hans, admitted last week the Dutchman was considering his future at Stamford Bridge and would jump at the chance of joining Real Madrid.
Real and Chelsea have a collaboration agreement, which was struck last month while Fernando Martin was the Spanish club's president.
Along with Robben and Roberto Carlos, Real's Michel Salgado and Chelsea defender Ricardo Carvalho could also swap clubs over the summer.
