Joorabchian offers to fund Tevez inquiry

Kia Joorabchian insists he would be happy to fund a new inquiry into the Carlos Tevez transfer saga as he searches for “honesty and transparency”.

Tevez’s representative claims the initial Premier League investigation into the terms of the player’s transfer to West Ham in August last year, which ended with the Hammers being found guilty of breaching rules on third-party ownership and being fined £5.5m, was conducted with only “50% of the facts”, and wants a new inquiry.
