Manchester City executive chairman Garry Cook has
hinted that the club would be interested in John Terry – and that
Chelsea may still want Robinho.
Robinho looked certain to join Chelsea when he left Real Madrid
in the summer, but City came in with an improved offer at the last
minute to take him to Eastlands.
However, several reports have suggested Luiz Felipe Scolari is
still eager to tie up a deal for his compatriot and has been
encouraged by recent talk that Robinho may be unhappy in
Manchester.
City, meanwhile, have been linked with a move for Terry since
the club’s takeover in the summer.
And, confirming he had held a meeting with Chelsea chief
executive Peter Kenyon, Cook revealed that Kenyon
registered his interested in City’s ‘superstars’ but he was
unable to discuss the England captain.
Asked about Terry, he said in The Times: “I had a meeting with
Kenyon but I didn’t bring up his name.
“He did ask about some of our superstars, but I’m not allowed to
ask about his.”
