Corinthians bid €40m to bring Tevez back

BRAZILIAN giants Corinthians have tabled an offer of €40 million for Manchester City striker Carlos Tevez.

Unsettled Tevez wants to leave City after two years with the club and has cited family reasons, saying last week that he wants to be closer to his two children and their mother, who live in Argentina.

It initially seemed a fanciful prospect that Tevez would be able to move to South America, as no club was believed to have the financial clout to sign him from City.
