The Brazil international's spokesman confirmed the player met police on Tuesday as part of a "criminal investigation", but did not mention the nature of the inquiry.

Robinho joined City from Real Madrid in September for £32.5 million, making him the most expensive British transfer.

Robinho's spokesman Chris Nathaniel said the player denied any wrongdoing and was happy to cooperate with police.

Nathaniel: "We can confirm that Robinho met the police today (Tuesday), as pre-arranged and as part of a criminal investigation.

"He strenuously denies any allegation of wrongdoing or criminality and is happy to cooperate with the police if required further."
