Now that Mark Hughes and Garry Cook have formally taken over at Manchester City, the club can devote its efforts to player evaluations and transfers. Some news and notes...
Defender Sun Jihai could be heading for either Stoke or Bolton.
Richard Dunne & Mark Hughes recently held talks and it now looks more likely that City's captain will be remaining with the club for at least one more season. [Update] Portsmouth has made a late run at Dunne, so his status remains in limbo.
Midfielder Anthony Annan is being courted by City after his tremendous run at the African Cup of Nations with host Ghana. If 21-year-old signs, he would compete with another young player, Swiss international Gelson Fernandes at the defensive midfield position.
It appears that CSKA Moscow's Jo impending move to City has cooled. Inter Milan is rumoured ready to pounce should City pass on the Brazilian.
Everton is ready to make a serious run at midfielder and England U-21 Michael Johnson. Hopefully, City will be able to stop this advance.
And now from the "World of Odd"
Reports have City approaching retired Japanese superstar Hidetoshi Nakata. The 31-year-old midfielder has been retired since the 2006 World Cup.
Manchester City midfielder Michael Johnson is being linked with a move to fellow Premiership side Everton.
