The Brazilian international's current deal with Real Madrid is due to expire in 2010, and although both parties have been in talks about an extension to his contract, no agreement has been reached as of yet.
Robinho, who is understood to be unhappy with his current wages at Santiago Bernabéu, could reportedly take on a new challenge this summer after failing to reach an agreement with the board over his new salary.
Reports coming from the Spanish press this Friday suggest that Real Madrid are interested in making a player-plus-cash offer for Cristiano Ronaldo, which would see Robinho going to England.
However, Robinho has quashed speculation, suggesting that only Champions League runners-up, Chelsea, have made an offer for his services.
"There is nothing from Manchester United, that's speculation," he told Globoesporte.com. "Cristiano Ronaldo will not want to leave, he just won the Champions League and could be elected the best player in the world.
"What could happen is a move to Chelsea, because I have an offer. Milan are also after me, their board have already asked to speak to my agent."
Meanwhile, Robinho's representative, Wagner Ribeiro, revealed that he was in London on Thursday to discuss with Chelsea's director of football, Peter Kenyon, the possibility of the Brazilian international playing for The Blues next season.
"Chelsea are willing to offer Real Madrid €35 million for Robinho. We did not discuss salaries or length of the contract," he said.
Nonetheless, Ribeiro stressed that his client's wish is to stay at Real Madrid and that the Spanish capital club want to keep him in their ranks in years to come.
"The problem is that Real also want Cristiano Ronaldo. But Alex Ferguson says he will only let him go if someone from Real that plays in the same position comes to Manchester. And that player is Robinho," he concluded.
