Firstly Petrov:
"I think he will be staying at City, he has a contract with them," Franco Moretti, Petrov's agent, is reported as saying by Sky Sports.

"I think he will stay at Eastlands for sure, because the coach (Mark Hughes) is staying there.

"He is a big fan, so he will definitely stay at City."

And Bojinov:

"I do not know if they sent someone. Anyway, Manchester City have assured me that he remains a key part of their squad.

"He has been very unfortunate with injury, but they intend to continue the working relationship and have no plans to part."

It will be interesting to see quite what role either will have during 2009/10, as the attacking aspects and make up of our squad do look well stocked, and will become even more congested if reported moves for Tevez and Santa Cruz (and others?) materialise.

A key theme with both statements though is the apparant backing for both players by Hughes as being important members of the squad, and perhaps this is the summer where for the first time we go to having a true squad of 18-22 first team players who can fit into different sides and formations.
