Hughes refuses to rule out Drogba bid

The Ivory Coast international has been linked with a move to Eastlands in recent days.

“That’s not up for debate,” he told Sky Sports News on Robinho’s future.

“There’s always speculation about our players and players that we don’t have. So we’re quite used to that at the moment.

“Basically there are stories about every player and every top club in the world at the moment and we’re allegedly linked with everybody,” he commented on being linked with Drogba.

“Until we actually make bids for players then I really can’t discuss other players.

“It’s a situation we’re trying to keep a lid on but there’s so much speculation I shouldn’t have to add to it.”
