Disgruntled Brazil striker Robinho missed training with his club Santos again on Tuesday, the day after the club re-affirmed that they would not sell him to Real Madrid.

"The agreement was that Robinho would turn up this Tuesday but he didn't," coach Gallo told reporters.

"We've passed the situation to the board of directors and it's up to the president to take measures." On Monday, Robinho was ordered to resume training as Santos said that any team wanting to buy him before the end of his contract in 2008 must pay a $50 million penalty.

The 21-year-old, who also missed Sunday's Brazilian championship match at home to Juventude, said last Wednesday that he had spoken to Real and wanted to join them.

His comments came at the end of the Confederations Cup, where he played for Brazil in all five games on their way to winning the competition.

His also missed club practice on Friday and Saturday.

Robinho said on Monday that Real had offered $25 million for him and that he was not in the right frame of mind to play in Brazil.

Meanwhile, the thwarted dream of Robinho to go at once with Real, has caused him a depression, said Tuesday his agent Wagner Ribeiro.

Ribeiro's remarks comes in contrast with the versions of the local sports press with the photo of Robinho, published Monday, showing him happy with friends playing on the street, while at the same time his team, Santos had troubles to draw without goals with Juventude in the 10th round of the Brazilian championship.

In talking about the situation of the

striker, Ribeiro said Tuesday "Robinho does not sleep and is depressed."

He also said the problem that hinders the agreement between Santos and Real is not money.

Robinho's agent reminded that the bidding of Real Madrid is the highest in the history of the Brazilian soccer.
