Estranged City striker denies comments published on Thursday

Carlos Tevez has issued a denial of comments attributed to him in the German magazine Kicker on Thursday. In the published interview, it was said that Tevez felt the way he had been treated by City was "strange" and he did not care what people thought about his conduct. However, his representatives on Thursday evening poured cold water on the interview. A statement issued read: "Regarding an interview published in Kicker magazine today (2.2.12), Carlos Tevez categorically denies both speaking to any journalist about his situation at Manchester City and the quotes attributed to him in the interview."

Debate

The Argentinian's future has been the subject of intense debate for months now. He has still not played for City since becoming embroiled in a dispute with the club in September and it was widely anticipated he would leave during the transfer window. However, despite interest from Inter Milan, AC Milan and Paris Saint Germain, no transfer was concluded and City flatly refused to enter into discussions over a loan deal for the 27-year-old. Tevez remains in Argentina and whilst there has been speculation he is about to return, it is understood that is not going to happen immediately.
