£10m Upson bid?

So says the Mirror:

Manchester City are preparing a £10million bid for West Ham's Matthew Upson – and the deal could bring an end to Wayne Bridge’s World Cup dream.

Mark Hughes identified England centre-back Upson as a New Year target well before Bridge suffered the knee ligament injury that will sideline him for up to two months.

The City boss wants to bring in Upson to play alongside captain Kolo Toure at the heart of his defence, with Lescott then asked to take over Bridge’s left-back position.

I'd file this under 'unlikely but not inconceivable.'
