Mark Hughes in potential big money signing shocker!

Premier League clubs Manchester City and Chelsea are set to battle it out for the signature of Brazilian International Daniel Alves at La Liga pacesetters Barcelona in the summer, according to The Daily Mirror.

25-year-old wing-back Alves only arrived at Barca last summer in a €29million deal from Sevilla, which could rise to €35million dependant on how the Brazilian fairs at the Nou Camp.(Premiershiplatest.com)

Yes, it’s another Brazilian! Alves is a class act. He has been bang in form for the La Liga title chasers this season and it would take a big bid to stand a chance of snaring the right back but Pepe Guardiola is said to be ready to clear out some players this summer, but i am pretty sure Alves is one of his squad he would dearly love to keep. Would City fans prefer Mark Hughes to steer clear of big name signings and opt for a more measured use of the Sheikh’s cash?
