Manchester, England (My Sportsbook) - Manchester City Brazil star Robinho has again fueled speculation linking him with a move to Barcelona after admitting he would find it difficult to turn down a move to the Spanish giants.

The British transfer record forward has been linked with a possible move to the Camp Nou in the next transfer window after an indifferent first 12 months at Eastlands.

Robinho played for Barca's biter rivals Real Madrid before heading to England but has admitted that a move to the Catalan side would be an appealing prospect.

"It's not easy to say no to a team like Barcelona," he told Marca. "They are the European champions. It is a beautiful city and I like Spain a lot.

"I have always wanted to play at clubs like Barcelona. It's a great club, any player would be happy for them to show an interest.

"I am happy that a club like them have noticed me. Who would not want to play for a club alongside Xavi, [Andres] Iniesta, [Lionel] Messi, [Zlatan] Ibrahimovic and all the rest?

"I like Barcelona, they're a great club."

Robinho has scored 15 goals in 44 appearances for City but doubts about his commitment resurfaced after he asked to be left out of their recent 1-0 win at Portsmouth so that he would be fit for his country's World Cup qualifier against Argentina.
