Brazil defender Luisao, 28, looks like being the next big-name arrival at Manchester City, following a recommendation from Robinho. Benfica's centre back hopes to complete a £15million move this summer. 'Robinho is a good friend, and the prospect of playing alongside him at club level, aswell as for Brazil, is very appealing,' he said. Robinho said: 'He is a great player and a good professional, and I know he will strengthen our team.'
