Mark Hughes can live with the added heat


18.09.08

Mark Hughes insists he feels no extra pressure as the £210million takeover of Manchester City nears a conclusion.

City are expected to finalise a deal with the Abu Dhabi United group by the end of the week.

Hughes, whose side face AC Omonia of Cyprus in the UEFA Cup tonight, said: "The pressure is always there, irrespective of the resources you have.

"You are expected to win and show progress. So that is what I have to do at City.

"We want to make an impression in the UEFA Cup as we feel European football will help us develop as a team. It is a big part of what we want to do."
