New naming rights for Eastlands could help Manchester City significantly in their attempts to comply with UEFA’s fair play ruling. The deal would give the club a cash injection in the region of £15-20m per season therefore making a sizeable contribution to their annual revenues.

In the papers this morning there have been a mixed bag of stories that include Redknapp conceding Modric is confused about his future; Stewart Downing set to demand a transfer from Aston Villa, while Manchester United are confident that £20m will land Samir Nasri.
