Premier League sides Manchester United and Chelsea have been linked with the player, with agent Wagner Ribiero even claiming the Blues had put in a bid for him, but now he says Barca are also interested.
Ribiero told the Spanish press: "It's only logical that a club like Barcelona want Robinho.
"He is also wanted by Chelsea and Manchester United.
"Chelsea have presented a big offer for Robinho to Real Madrid, but it seems as if the club don't want to sell him."
It is the last point that is most important at this stage, with Real keen to hold on to Robinho until the Cristiano Ronaldo situation has been concluded.
Ribiero added: "Robinho has a contract at Real Madrid. And for that reason he is not looking to leave the club."
