Hughes looks at Caicedo loan
05 Sep 2008 - 10:20:47
Manchester City manager Mark Hughes is keen to loan out Felipe Caicedo after the striker's proposed switch to Hertha Berlin fell through on transfer deadline day.
The 20-year-old Ecuador international has started only one game for City since moving to Eastlands in a £5million transfer from FC Basel in January.
Hertha Berlin opted to sign Andriy Voronin on a season-long loan from Liverpool rather than snap up Caicedo, and Hughes admitted: "We may look at a loan situation for Felipe again.
"There was a deal for him to join Hertha Berlin but, in the last hour, they decided to go elsewhere."
Nery Castillo was also expected to leave the club, with Real Betis linked with the Mexico forward, but Hughes confirmed: "They've both come back to the club.
"There were deals on the table we thought were going to be concluded, but in the end they weren't.
"It's disappointing for both of them. We thought they were good opportunities, but in the end it wasn't to be."
