City boss Hughes keeps local focus

MANCHESTER CITY manager Mark Hughes insists the club will never lose touch with its roots while he is in charge.

With a £210 million (€267m) takeover by the Abu Dhabi United Group, backed by Sheikh Mansour, about to be completed, City fans are hoping for big-name signings in the January transfer window.

Some of those already at the club have been slaking their claim too, with Jo’s first goals following his £19m (€24m) move from CSKA Moscow giving City a 2-1 victory against Omonia Nicosia in the UEFA Cup on Thursday night.
