The forthcoming transfer window is sure to see the Manchester
side splashing the cash after their recent takeover by the Abu
Dhabi United Group.
They recently smashed the British transfer record with their
£32.5 million capture of Robinho and have also been linked with big
money moves for the likes of Kaka and Gianluigi Buffon.
Welsh boss Mark Hughes, however, has warned that it will be a
few years until the club can seriously challenge the likes of
Manchester United and Chelsea for the Premier League crown.
"We have not had the benefit of one transfer window yet," the
City boss explained.
"We need to go through three or four before we can even suggest
that we are going to challenge at the top end.
"There will come a point when everybody says 'this is the moment
when we can have a real go'. We are nowhere near yet, everybody has
to understand that."
