The fact that Tevez, Kia, and Mancini have all said the same thing........
The fact that we accepted a bid from Corinthians that was below market value to help Tevez complete the tranfer to be nearer to his family.
the fact that city wanted bank guarantees and a sell 2 year on clause. this tells me city were very wary of either tevez or corinthians or both
if i had the kind of money tevez has i would retire from the game, if need be just so i could be with my kids. and if you have kids and his money i think you would too. or i`d be prepared to take a drop in salary and play in argentina or brazil and agree with any reasonable clause city insisted on
yes just my gut feeling but i dont believe everything people say.
City were commercially on the ball with the Tevez - Corinthians deal, and were correct to cover all bases. But the fact of the matter is, we still accepted a bid under market value.
In terms of "just retiring", he could do this, but would open himself up to breach of contract. He has 3 years to run on his current deal, and to retire he would have to resign. City would need to accept his resignation before he can retire.
