Tevez set to leave MU

Argentinian forward Carlos Tevez will leave English Premier League champions Manchester United, the club confirmed on Saturday.
Tevez's two-year loan deal was set to expire this month because United have been unable to agree a transfer fee with the group of investors who own the economic rights to the Argentine forward.
United offered Tevez a new five-year deal that would have made him one of the highest-paid players at Old Trafford, but said he turned it down.
A statement from Manchester United said: "Following contact received from Carlos Tevez's advisors last night, in advance of the deadline the Club set for concluding negotiations, Manchester United announces that Carlos will not be signing a new contract with the Club.
"The Club agreed to pay the option price of 25.5 million pounds and offered Carlos a five-year contract which would have made him one of its highest paid players.
"Disappointingly however, his advisors informed the Club that, despite the success he has enjoyed during one of the Club's most successful periods, he does not wish to continue playing for Manchester United.
"The Club would like to thank Carlos for his services over the last two seasons and wishes him good luck for the future."
The decision paves the way for Tevez, who has been linked to a number of top flight clubs in England including Liverpool and Manchester City, to relaunch his career in the Premier League. He has also been linked with a move to Real Madrid.
Despite playing a leading role in United's success last season the Argentine complained of not playing enough. He was regularly used as a substitute.
Tevez last put on a United strip for the Champions League final in Rome, but had to watch from the bench as Barcelona took a 1-0 half-time lead.
Ferguson eventually sent the Argentina forward on as a half-time substitute but the Spanish giants went on to score another goal to win 2-0.
