John Terry and Mark Hughes apparently stayed in the same hotel last week, with their reasons for visiting the gulf state unknown.
What is known is that Manchester City tabled a £30million offer for the Chelsea defender, which the Blues promptly dismissed.
The Sky Blues will attempt to swoop for the England skipper again soon, and are rumoured to be upping their bid to £35m.
Both Hughes and Terry looked to be unwinding at the exclusive Jumeirah Beach resort in Dubai. Whether both the men were on holiday remains to be seen.
Man City are very eager to get their man, but Barcelona stopper Carles Puyol has been tabbed to be ‘plan B' if they fail to get Terry.
La Blaugrana are anticipating another struggle with the Eastlands outfit, with another round of jousting after the Samuel Eto'o saga. Barca do not want to lose their inspirational captain, but the defender's agent is working with City to broker a mega-money move.
Holidaymakers at Jumeirah Beach allegedly told SunSport how they saw Hughes and Terry there the weekend before last.
Jason Dyer, from Hertfordshire, said: "We met John Terry in one of the restaurants and saw him around the hotel gardens. We also had breakfast at the next table to Mark Hughes."
"It was amazing to find when we came home City had made a bid for Terry."
