Manchester City boss Mark Hughes has been handed a new media headache through Carlos Tevez.

Tevez's admission yesterday that he may quit after the 2010 World Cup is sure to bring more media pressure on Eastlands.

The Times says with City already having to contend with intense speculation about the future of another high-profile South American, Robinho, the Brazil forward, the last thing they will want now are questions about how long Tevez will be at the club.

It certainly represents another unwelcome distraction for Hughes, the manager, who was returning with the squad today from Abu Dhabi, where they have spent the week on a winter training camp, and raises questions about the club's ability to keep their big names happy.
