Carlos Tevez is considering offers from Manchester City, Chelsea and one other club, according to the player's adviser Kia Joorabchian.

After Tevez decided not to renew his contract with Manchester United, Joorabchian commented the Argentinian's future will be defined in "about 10 days" and hinted City were in pole position to sign the player.

Joorabchian told Radio del Plata: "Right now we are evaluating the proposals from Manchester City, Chelsea and one other team. In the next two weeks, Carlos, Adrian (Rouco, Tevez's agent) and I will meet to sort this out."

He added: "City is a club with most of the chances because they are building a big squad, but it is not a decisive point.

"The contract with United officially runs to until June 31 and we'll respect that. After July 1, we'll see. We may be defined in 10 days."

Last weekend, Tevez turned down a lucrative five-year offer to stay at Old Trafford, with Joorabchian making clear it arrived too late.

He said: "Carlitos has never asked United for money, he has never complained about his contract. It is not a problem regarding money, but we never talked about that in two years.

"In two years, (United manager Sir Alex) Ferguson always said we were going to sit down to negotiate but we never did so. He sent an offer, but it was too late because they had not offered anything in two years."

  1. Football is now a game of prostitution where players­ sell there soul to the highest bidder, Its obvious him­ and his owner agent are holding out to make as much as­ they can no morals or loyalty in football.
    The game of­ the working class is dead and now a plaything of the­ world Elite.

    the only club that is usually anonymous during­ players' transfer negotiation is arsenal but with a­ price of £25.5m I cant guess and even i did guess, it­ will come up wrong bcos i am going to guess arsenal.­ however, anything can happen bcos tevez is the most­ potent player in the english premiership. his work rate­ is so high that on a good day, he can single handed­ keep an almost relegated team in the premiership ask­ west harm. so if srsenal decide to change their mind on­ him, then there are 3 good reasons for that;
    1. he is­ only 23 or 24
    2. he is very versatile and can win the­ league for arsenal together with arshavin
    3. the new­ man chief executive Ivan has different ideas to­ wenger's
