Rio de Janerio: Robinho is free to negotiate with interested suitors after rescinding his contract with AC Milan, according to media reports.

The 31-year-old had been tied to the Italian club until mid- 2016, but agreed to waiver outstanding payments from the Rossoneri in exchange for having his contract annulled, newspaper O Globo reported.

Robinho has less than two months left on a year-long loan with Santos, which he helped win the Sao Paulo state title earlier this month, as per reported.

Santos and Flamengo are understood to be seeking to sign the former Real Madrid and Manchester City winger, who has also been linked with a move to US Major League Soccer.

Robinho was rewarded for his impressive 2015 form by being included in Brazil’s squad for the Copa America, to be played in Chile from June 11 to July 4.

The left-handed batsman from Haryana is garnering praise from all quarters for the way he’s finishing games regularly in the most exciting IPL season.

Gavaskar reckons Tewatia’s whirlwind knock in Sharjah (in IPL 2020) where he smashed West Indies pacer Sheldon Cottrell for five sixes in an over, gave him the confidence that he belongs to the big stage.

Speaking on Cricket Live on Star Sports, Gavaskar said, “That assault on Sheldon Cottrell in Sharjah gave him the belief to do the impossible and the confidence that he belongs here. We saw the impossible (he did with the bat) the other day as well. There’s no twitching or touching the pads (which shows a batter’s nervousness) when he bats in the death overs. He just waits for the ball to be delivered and plays his shots. He’s got all the shots in the book, but most importantly his temperament to stay cool in a crisis is brilliant.”

Gavaskar has also nicknamed the 28-year-old cricketer the ‘ice-man’ and lauded Tewatia’s ability to remain unruffled during the tense moments.
