Manchester City's newest signing Roque Santa Cruz hopes Carlos Tevez joins him at Eastlands this summer.
The Paraguay international striker sealed his move to City on Monday from Blackburn for a fee believed to be in the region of £18million.
No sooner had the 27-year-old marksman put pen-to-paper on a four-year contract had he urged ex-Manchester United ace Tevez to follow suit.
Tevez is set to leave Corinthians permanently this summer following the conclusion of his two-year loan deal with the Premier League champions.

The former West Ham striker has been linked with a move to City and Santa Cruz believes he would be an ideal signing for the club.
"If Tevez comes too he would be a very good signing," Santa Cruz told radio 970 AM.
"I hope that Tevez could join Manchester City. I heard that there have been conversations about that happening. He would be a really good signing."
Meanwhile, Santa Cruz is on the mend following a knee injury and he believes he will be fit and raring to go for when City's pre-season work starts on 4th July.
"I am going to keep on working hard recovering from my knee injury and I think that I will be ready to start pre-season work together with all the team," he continued.
"It's very nice to join a team like this one after going through so many problems."
Has Santa been told something ;)
