Robinho included in the club's 25-player squad for the upcoming season, despite expressing a desire to stay with "Santos" team multiple times.

Manager Roberto Mancini also spoke about the Brazilian's return to Manchester: "He's back here and feels very tired, but he is included in the list."

Robinho joined "Man City" in 2008, arriving from Madrid's "Real" for a record-breaking nearly 40 million euros for Great Britain.

After an impressive start, Robinho failed to establish himself in the first team, so he ended last season with his home country's "Santos" team.

Striker Craig Bellamy did not make it to the 25 player list, with interest from Glasgow's "Celtic" and London's "Fulham".
