Carlos Tevez Off to Juventus for £10m
MANCHESTER CITY last night agreed to sell former skipper Carlos Tevez to Juventus in a £10million deal.
The Argentinian striker is due to have a medical with the Serie A club today before penning a three-year contract in Turin.Personal terms have yet to be agreed and could still hold up the move but City believe it will be ironed out quickly.
And the switch will bring to an end a controversial four-year stay at the Etihad for the former Manchester United favourite.
Tevez’s future has been up in the air all summer with just one year remaining on the contract he signed back in the summer of 2009.
There has been interest for the 29-year-old from both Juve and their rivals AC Milan but the San Siro club pulled out of the race earlier this week.
That left the way clear for the Italian champions and they have agreed to pay City £7.6m up front.
There will be further add-ons of £850,000 for each time Juve qualify for the Champions League or win silverware. So City believe as much as £12.75m could come their way.
Tevez, whose City record is 74 goals in 148 games, could be replaced by Borussia Dortmund hitman Robert Lewandowski if City can convince the Pole, 24, to join them instead of Bayern Munich.
