I want out of Manchester City now, declares Tevez

CARLOS TEVEZ last night stunned Manchester City by demanding a transfer request, saying he has to leave England for the sake of his family.

City had been fearing their captain would leave this summer, but manager Roberto Mancini was confident on Sunday that his star player would stay when he revealed that a possible swap deal for Inter Milan’s Samuel Eto’o had collapsed.

However in a statement last night Tevez revealed that “with great regret”, he has decided he wants out.
