Hughes urges Terry to join City

Manchester City boss Mark Hughes has urged John Terry to join him at the Eastlands. Although Chelsea had rejected a £30m offer from Man City, John Terry's refusal to say publicly that he wants to stay at his club has given high hopes for Hughes.

The City boss Mark Hughes thinks that John Terry would love the Man City challenge. "When you have been with a club at a long time, you maybe get to a point when you need a new challenge, when you think a change of scenary would just re-ignite certain things within you."

The latest reports suggest that Terry is tempted by the £200,000 a week wages offered by Man City. Although Chelsea is irritated by the 'illegal approach' made by Man City and Hughes, inside reports say that City would relentlessly pursue Terry.

"It's about a different stage in his life and career, and maybe that's why there hasn't been a response because John is seriously thinking in those terms. I went through that process myself and I can understand if that is the way he is thinking," said Hughes.
