Robinho has instructed city's player welfare department to extend the rental on his house fort a further 12 months and apparently he hasn't sold his Lamborgini.
Clearest sign yet he's coming back?

Robinho points a way back to Blues
Stuart Brennan
March 08, 2010
Robinho has given the clearest indication yet that he intends to return to City in the summer.
The Brazil ace recently paid the rental on a £2m converted barn in Mobberley until January.
His current loan spell with Santos expires in July in time for Robinho to return to pre-season training with the Blues.
But since returning to his homeland in January, the £32.5m British record signing has increasingly appeared to distance himself from a return to Manchester.
This week he was reported to have said that current City boss Roberto Mancini "lacked quality" after putting him on as a substitute at Everton and then taking him off less than an hour later.
City released the player on a six-month deal - under which Santos pay his wages - in the hope that a spectacular World Cup would either reinvigorate him or at least raise his value ahead of a summer sale.
But Robinho himself has instructed's City's player welfare department to sort out the details of his house rental for another year - and he has not sold the £170,000 Lamborghini car he bought after joining City in 2008.
Ideally, City would like Robinho to return in top form - and have the added incentive of Champions League football and a couple of big-name new teammates.
Reports this week have linked them with Real Madrid's Argentine striker Gonzalo Higuain but Blues sources insist that no moves will be made until the club's position next season is determined.
Chelsea's Joe Cole would also be on City's radar, especially if they reach the Champions League and with Cole out of contract they could face a fight with neighbours United for the England man's signature.

I have to admit, that I have serious doubts about whether Robbie ever will come back, personally I would love for him to come back and prove the haters wrong.

The signs look good. The MEN article plus Given's post match interview last week. Added to the fact he's getting regular games, scoring goals and smiling again, a really good World Cup could be all that's needed for him to come back and turn on the style, with some even better players around him.
Either that or we get a decent fee for him. Personally i enjoy watching him, and i think he could be really effective once we sort our midfield out, so i'd love to see him back.

I think that after the world cup, there will not be one real City fan who does not want Robinho back at the club.
Some people will no doubt continue to tell us how much they dislike him, but whatever their agenda is, it isn't supporting City.
What true fan could not want to see a fully fit and motivated Robinho playing for their club?
There was never any real doubt that he would return. The club made the position absolutely clear and all the rest has just been media hype and speculation, which some of our so called fans have stupidly jumped right in the middle of.

Fair enough, however it still irks me that when we are about to go on an 11 game run in that is pretty much our most pivotal time in recent history he is not here because he wants to be happy to play for Brazil in the World Cup.
