Manchester City winger Robinho has concerns over his close friends at Eastlands.

The Daily Star Sunday says City sources have confirmed that Britain's record signing at £32.5million is concerned about the futures at the club of his fellow countrymen Elano and Jo.

Both midfielder Elano and striker Jo have had fall-outs with hardline manager Mark Hughes and don't appear to be in his long-term plans.

And City are worried over the impact that could have on Robinho.

They are hoping that it doesn't develop into a Hughes v Robinho situation.
