City Planning Shock Tevez Raid
-
Manchester City are reportedly readying another super swoop, with Manchester United's Carlos Tevez this time the target.
News of the World claims that City will launch a £30million raid to steal Tevez from their cross-town rivals, who have yet to tie the Argentine forward to a permanent deal.
The 24-year-old is currently serving the second season of a two-year loan spell at Old Trafford. It was expected United would offer him a permanent deal during the summer, but Sir Alex Ferguson recently revealed that no new contract would be forthcoming until the end of the season.
The exact reason for the delay remains unclear; however, the general consensus is that the £31million deadline-day purchase of Dimitar Berbatov from Tottenham Hotspur has left the Red Devils' transfer kitty dry.
Mark Hughes and co will have a tough time convincing Tevez to make the switch to Eastlands, as the former West Ham star recently declared that he wishes to see out his playing days at United.
But working in the Citizens' favour is their flourishing relationship with Kia Joorabchian, the figurehead for Media Sports Investment (MSI) - the firm that owns Tevez's contract - and the man largely responsible for bringing Robinho to the City of Manchester Stadium.
If United cannot wrap up a deal by next summer, then MSI will sell Tevez to the highest bidder - and with City bolstered by the near-unlimited financial resources of new owners Abu Dhabi United Group, they would have to considered favourites if push comes to shove.
It is understood that the Sky Blues may seek to open negotiations with MSI as early as January, although a winter transfer would be extremely unlikely given Tevez will still have half a season remaining on his loan with United. -

ManC is now a filter, all those wankers who join them now on are those who play for the money... those that doesn't have lesser chance of us thinking of them being greedy.

excuse me, tevez's deal is already permanent. and surely 30M is not enough to bring tevez across, try 50M, maybe can.

nah, i confirm his deal is already done. is 32 or 38M which tied him to the devils. he surely worth more than 25m man. lol. -
£30million can be used to purchase a striker of better quality I think. I'll rate Tevez at £20-25million.
