Johnson [Merged]

So Storrie says there has been a significant bid tabled, yet doesn't mention the name of the club. Could this be a part of a confidentiality clause perhaps? There was a report a few days ago (I think from The Times) saying we were preparing a bid for £18 million.
 
Also see the MEN comment in the Evans article. Apologies if mentioned

Bids for Santa Cruz and Tevez are imminent, but City are not expected to go for Portsmouth's England right-back Glen Johnson.

The MEN is one of the few media organisations I'd trust without direct quotes
 
I listened to it on radio but just at the important bit HID started to say something and I missed the answer

Storrie mentioned CL football and the interviewer said well that rules out Man City and I am sure all I heard was a laugh from Storrie, so he neither discounted us or said we had made a bid was this right?

I still believe that Johnson will go to Pool to play CL football and link up with Gerrard.

He laughed and said "for now" or "not yet"
 
Cheers

I know on the summary talkshite have said we are ruled out because can't offer him CL although they are not ruling out a move abroad, but unless it is RM can't see any foreign side stupping up 18m for a right back.

That was their summation through the yellow scrolling bar, but the detail was that Chelsea and Liverpool had made bids, whist City had made an enquiry. This all cam to light after an interview with Storrie who also appeared on Talksport. He's not specific in his intervies, but your left with the impression that he's briefed the media off the record so they talk up an auction. I don't think City are actively pursuing Johnson, but that's just based on the MEN and a bit of reading between the lines
