Tevez staying at City, declares boss Mancini

ROBERTO MANCINI plans to keep Carlos Tevez after seeing a proposed swap deal involving Samuel Eto’o come to nothing.

The future of Manchester City’s talismanic skipper has been a subject of contention for some time, with a transfer request having been handed in by the Argentinian last season. It was eventually retracted, but speculation suggesting Tevez will leave Eastlands has continued to rage.

A switch to Italy has been touted, with Inter Milan holding an interest in the fiery South American.
