Crunch time approaches!

The Rumour

Soccer: Training - Manchester United May 20

Sky Sports News understands that talks will begin with all interested parties hoping to sign Carlos Tevez on Monday and Tuesday.

Representatives of the Argentina striker will hold discussions with four clubs in the Premier League – Manchester United, Manchester City, Liverpool and Chelsea.

Reports also suggest that one club in Italy and one in Spain are interested, although the Primera Liga side is not thought to be Real Madrid.

It is understood that Tevez himself will announce that he would prefer to stay in the Premier League.

The Analysis

Many had thought that Cristiano Ronaldo’s move to Real Madrid would lead to Man United offering a big sum of money to make Carlos Tevez a permanent member of their squad but that doesn’t appear to have happened and now it seems the Argentine will start talks with all the interested parties tomorrow.

Rafa Benitez would dearly love to snap up the former West Ham man and he must have a pretty good chance of persuading Tevez to join his former club team mate and current national colleague Javier Mascherano at Anfield.

Apparently some sources are suggesting that the Merseyside outfit will talk to the player and his blood sucking agent tomorrow and it will be very interesting to see which side he opts to join!

The Likelihood

Tevez to Liverpool: Benitez has as much chance as anyone as long as he has the cash!
