Tevez [Merged]

[Bongo Joe]

apparently we're waiting on the FA to ok the paperwork because of the third party ownership.

Wouldn't have thought that would hold up the signing It could hold up the cheque though!

It will hold up the signing. Once all the paperwork has been checked and gone through then we can complete the deal.

The premier League have to ratify the papers before the signing becomes official. We could make a statement saying "Carlos Tevez has signed a 5 year contract with the club pending FA approval" imo

How much is this saga costing the economy in terms of lost work time?
Last week I thought and was told this was a definate deal - my source backtracked a bit yesterday.

In what way?

Just from being very forthcoming and effusive about it being done and dusted and going to be announced imminently - to being very non-commital and changing the subject. Could be reading too much into it.

A few ITK's have mentioned this mate so its just a general consensus

Also when Liverpool signed Javier Mascherano the FA didn't take this long!

the ITKs usually get wind of it a few hours before an imminent signing if a players is having a medical or turns up to tour the facilities. we havent had any news so far today

HappyBlue and various media outlets have also said it. There is only two people i'd believe over HappyBlue and that's Spursmad (who also says it's done) and Carlos Tevez himself.

It makes sense. Little will have happened over the weekend. It's a deal that will be looked over a few times because of the 3rd party ownership so that's probably the hold up. In any case Kia-Ora said it would probably be the first week in July and tomorrow is the 7th so there is no need to worry. If there was any other club in the mix it would have been all over the press.
