Tevez Favourite To Leave
Despite the player pledging his loyalty, the bookmakers believe Carlos Tevez is likely to leave City in the summer.
Two goals and another virtuoso performance showed Carlos Tevez’s worth and why Roberto Mancini is keen for him to stay. Responding to speculation surrounding his captain, “He has a five-year contract and has told us he wants to stay” said the City manager.
Ever since the Argentinean handed in a transfer request last December speculation about his future has been rife, despite later retracting the request. Victor Chandler make it 4/7 that Tevez leaves during the summer transfer window and 5/4 that he stays.
Inter Milan is his most likely destination at evens followed by Real Madrid at 4/1. Being away from his family is often cited as the reason for his unrest; he is 12/1 to return home and sign for Boca Juniors.
