Manchester City owner Sheikh
Mansour sees the signing of Chelsea captain John Terry as a personal
challenge.
The Manchester Evening News says he is said to have
told his City minions that Terry is the man he wants wearing the
armband for his club and for England.
Convinced that England will have a successful campaign in South
Africa next year, he feels the capture of Terry would be a major
coup for the Blues, both in terms of building a football team and
enhancing the club's prestige.
There is even a strong rumour that City enquired about Terry's
availability in the same January transfer window but were given a
sharp rebuff.
Since then, things have changed. City are busy knocking down
walls, and the expected capture of Carlos Tevez and possibly
Samuel Eto'o, would remove the
final few obstacles between City and fantasy football.
