Manchester City could sue Carlos Tevez due to decreased transfer fee – report

Man City could sue Tevez

Posted: 2012-01-26 14:45

Manchester City are considering taking legal action against the club’s frozen-out striker Carlos Tevez over the issue of the player’s price tag, which has nose-dived in recent months.

According to The Mirror, the want-away Argentinian striker may have legal proceedings brought against him by the club after seeing his value plummet in recent months after going on strike

The club value the Argentinian international at around the £25-million mark, but have found it difficult to get anything close to their valuation from the parties reportedly interested, which include AC Milan, Inter and Paris Saint-Germain.

Brazilian club Corinthians pulled out of a proposed £37-million deal in the dying embers of the summer transfer window over the issue of finances, and the club were reportedly offered a significantly decreased offer of £20m by AC Milan in the current transfer window.

It has since been revealed that Tevez has lost up to £9.3-million in wages, fines and bonuses since going on strike at the club in November, and returning to his native country.

Any civil case brought against Tevez is likely to involve recouping the cost in compensation of the player’s valuation last summer – with a figure of £13-million mooted.

On the other hand the Team can enslave the player by keeping him on the bench and the Coach go on.saying he will never play for Mancity again.
This modern day slavery of African n South American players has to come to an end. The team cannot be alkowed to have more rights than the players. Their income depends on good players too.

Serves the sucker right, he thought he was invincible and can do what he did with West Ham and Man. United, not with the Citizens mfana, no way! I hope they hit him hard so that he will learn.

There is nothing to learn here. When players are swapped without their concern, who takes them to court?

Qaddafi, you are right. Players should not be treated like they are owed a favor by playing football. These blood sucking vampires must learn and understand that players also makes them rich because they attract fans; both in the stadium and on TV.

Ayanda!This has no way got to do with slavery but a troubled player.

Tevez thought he couldn't be replaced but when Kun Agueru was brought from Atletico Madrid he started to experience stiff competition & his place was not guaranteed anymore.

He resorted to more sulking until without the permission of the team went home without & never returned.

It is also a pity that Kickoff cannot be trusted with their reporting.

Why I'm saying this is because PSG where able to match the £25 M transfer fee & £10 M in wages + £8.3m signing on fee but the sucker/Tevez refused the deal as he didn't fancy Ligue 1.

Kickoff,Laduma have been disappointing in their reporting during this transfer period.

Their main downfall is trying to be the 1st in breaking news when its just speculation.

On some instances they don't even dig deep on the story but wait to get information on the teams websites.

What most people don't know about Carlos Tevez is that when he left Corinthans in Brazil,he also refused to play for them & even said that Brazilians don't want to see Argentine succeeding in Brazil.He then went to West Ham but didn't stay long as the influence of money & his joint ownership took him to Manchester United.

He also left Man U after they put an offer of £25 M & he said he was not respected by the team.

Carlos then went to Man City & within few months he complained abt Roberto Mancini training methods.Later he wanted to go back home to be close to his family & the final straw was when he refused to be brought in as Man City was going down at Munich.

He reportedly told Mancini his mind was not right to play.

With the history,I just find it unbelievable that some of the comments here will feel he's been targeted & this is about being a South American.

Even if he goes to Ac or Inter Milan he will soon show that he's a bad apple.

is it really slavery, if it is then I would like to be part of it because it pays and it pays very well. This dude has never been well behaved at any of the clubs he has played for. Its a matter of "You can take a boy out of the slums but you cannot take the slums out of the boy". Slavery @ $300,000.00 per week. Think again.

Education also helps.Nicolas Anelka also wasted his early years on a lot of negative things & by the time he grew up there were lot of Nicolas Anelkas.

But I must say he was nowhere to the attitude of Tevez & I find it hard that is still some teams looking to sign him.

TP : 2012-01-27 01:04

Ac Milan is reportedly making a decision on Tevez today/Friday.

They have agreed terms with Maxi Lopez from Gatania & will probably sign the "bad apple/Tevez" as well.
