New Fulham boss Hughes targets City duo

(GSM) – Fresh Fulham manager Mark Hughes has targeted Manchester City pair Craig Bellamy and Stephen Ireland.

Former City coach Hughes agreed to a two-year deal with Fulham yesterday and straight away listed some players to bolster the Cottagers.

Both Ireland and Bellamy have been linked with moves away from Eastlands this summer and it’s reported Hughes is hoping to set up a reunion at Craven Cottage.

Roque Santa Cruz, who blossomed under Hughes at Blackburn Rovers, is also a reported target for Fulham.
