Unhappy Manchester City
striker
Carlos Tevez
has not ruled out the
possibility of staying in the Premier League, according to
reports.
With rumours circulating that the Argentine would prefer a move
abroad to Spain or back home, a source close to Tevez reportedly
revealed that he would consider staying in England with a possible
move to Liverpool, Tottenham Hotspur, Chelsea or Arsenal.
Roberto Mancini is set to have talks with the disgruntled striker
after the Europa League match against Juventus this week but a
different vibe is coming from an Argentine journalist.
"Carlos is unhappy with Manchester City and some of the
relationships in the club - he is not unhappy with England, with
the Premier League," she said.
"He says he is tired, he is mentally and physically tired, but the
impression he gives is that he will not give up football - and his
motivation is not money.
"Carlos will join another club, and although Spain offers him
another option - one where his family may be prepared to move
nearer to him - he could stay in England."
Tevez's reported salary of £286,000 a week — after tax — would no
doubt prove to be a hard obstacle to overcome for any club
interested in his signature.
However, reports suggest that he would be willing take a massive
pay cut to move to a club that would facilitate his needs.
Spurs, Arsenal and Chelsea can all offer him Champions League
football, plus Tevez himself admitted that he prefers life in
London to Manchester.
Liverpool is also another option for him as he is a keen admirer of
their history and international team-mate Javier Mascherano
reportedly gave him a glowing reference of the club.
