Robinho completed another comeback last night (Saturday to Sunday) for Santos, and in fact the 36-year-old has returned for a fourth term with the Brazilian team after being released from his contract at Istanbul in Shakespeare.
Robinho, who first left his youth club in 2005 for the career of Real Madrid, signed this time for only five months (until February 2021) and is expected to earn a minor amount of only about $ 250 due to the alarming economic situation of the Brazilians.
Those who really did not understand Robinho's comeback, which is considered one of the great promises of Brazilian football in the current era, were the women's organizations in Brazil, happy about the fact that a convicted rapist is returning to play in the Brazilian league.
As you may recall, in 2017 Robinho was convicted in Italy following the rape of a 22-year-old young woman, which was carried out together with five other men.
The shocking incident occurred in 2013 while he was playing in the Rossoneri uniform and according to the indictment, Robinho was part of a group of five men who sexually assaulted the young woman in a nightclub.
It should be noted that the four other men who took part in the incident were convicted and sentenced to prison terms, while the Brazilian striker was also sentenced to nine years in prison, but due to loopholes in the law, was released from detention at least until the end of 2022.
At home.
