Will Manchester United pay £20 million for Carlos Tevez?
July 1, 2008
It’s been reported that in order to make permanent Carlos Tevez’s move to Old Trafford, United would need to cough up around £20 million. With such a hefty price tag, will the transfer ever be completed? I mean, £20 million buys a lot of options.
Tevez is halfway through a two year loan deal at Old Trafford meaning by the end of this season, a decision will be made over his future one way or another. I am not privy to the ins and outs of the contract, but assuming there is no further loan option, the Argentine will need to prove he is worth £20 million if he has any ambitions of staying at United.
Reports suggest Tevez is unhappy at not being offered a permanent deal yet and may look elsewhere if one is not offered by the end of the year. With that in mind, it is imperative he has a good if not great start to the season.
His good form last season will not have gone unnoticed, neither will his crucial goals but this football and as we are told over and over, it is a results game. With it looking increasingly likely that another striker will be joining the ranks, Tevez must prepare for the most important season of his career.
