Reports from Brazil suggest Chelsea coach Luiz Felipe Scolari would still love to take Robinho to Stamford Bridge.
The Blues trailed the winger throughout the summer, but then saw Manchester City nip in to sign him from Real Madrid for £32million on transfer deadline day.
Despite that near miss it appears Scolari is still keen on the 24-year-old.
"I am sure that Robinho would be the best player in the world if he came to play at Chelsea," he told Brazilian daily O Globo.
"The Chelsea doors are always open to him."
Robinho has so far made 11 Premier League starts for City, scoring eight times in the process.
