Carlos Tevez is set to move from Manchester City by the end of the week, with the £45 million Sergio Aguero replacing him. City have decided to give up on keeping their wantaway striker.Tevez is poised to join Brazilian club Corinthians if the clubs can agree a fee before Wednesday’s transfer deadline in Brazil.
City will immediately dip into their wallet to try sign Tevez’s Argentinian team-mate Aguero, who is unhappy at the spanish club.
Tevez’s exit creates a slight dent in City's progression to become a major force in european football, after finally accepting they can no longer keep their unhappy talisman. City boss Roberto Mancini will be given the Tevez cash to recruit Aguero. It has been reported that the Argentinian has a £45million get-out clause in his current contract.
Mancini yesterday admitted he was sympathetic to homesick Tevez's cause. City were hoping to raise £50million for their captain, but are now willing to lower their asking price. Sky sports last night revelaed that Corinthians had made an improved offer of £40 million, after their £35 million pound offer mid-week was rejected.
