what was the Tevez transfer fee?

[Skilly McRailnob]

from espn:

Manchester City forward Carlos Tevez is widely recognized as being the most expensive signing in British football after moving from Man United for about 47 million pounds in 2009.

£47mill?

Already shot down by the club and his previous owners. But they will cling to that fictional fee for their own agenda.

1 we didnt sign him from them
2 berbapop was reguarded as the highest internal transfer fee

Find it amusing how they put " about " before the 47 million.

Like when I buy something for 50p then forget and say it was "about a quid".

I honestly believe that it was for around 47 million, after all the add ons and bonuses. Every news source says so. The reason Cook did not want to disclose it is because the rags only offered 20 million, he didn't want to look like a mug.

47m pounds

We have so many experts on this forum it's unreal

How would a Spurs fan know the transfer dealings of City? Oh wait, the media told you.
