Tevez fined for wearing a Red Devils’ jersey

CORINTHIANS forward Carlos Tevez has been fined by his club after attending a Sao Paulo press conference wearing a Manchester United shirt.

The Argentina international will have to pay 20% of his monthly wage - around €19,300 - after turning up to face the press in the offending garment last week.

When asked why he wore the shirt, Tevez explained that he was given it by his sponsors.

“I wear what Nike give me, without any problems,” he said.

After being continually questioned about the shirt, Tevez then removed it.

“Are you happy now?” he asked one of the journalists.
