That has been a strong rumor for the past 3 days and several sites are now reporting that Carlos Tevez has indeed signed a deal with Man Utd, the transfer fee is estimated to be £20 million which is an enormous sum and has propelled Utd as the busiest club and most money spend in the transfer market this pre-season with a total of £70 million spent.
The Tevez move will be completed next week, subject to any challenge from West Ham, who still claim to own the registration of the player who saved them from relegation last season.
Tevez, who was once fined while playing for Corinthians for turning up to one of the Brazilian club’s press conferences wearing a Manchester United shirt, is a close friend of United’s Argentine defender Gabriel Heinze. Tevez was reportedly a guest at United’s Premiership title-winning party in London.

Last season Man Utd’s Sir Alex Ferguson made a bet with Cristiano Ronaldo, the bet was simple - score 15 goals or more and win £400, well £400 isn’t really that much for Cristiaano but he took Ferguson on his word as went on to produce the best form of his United career while notching 17 goals in the Premiership.
Now £400 richer, the talented twinkle toes is set for a new wager with Sir Alex and this time it’s WWE style, no there will not be any a$$ wooping or stunner involved but rumors are that the portuguese has said Ferguson must shave his head if he scores 20 goals - if he fails his own wavy locks will feel the wrath of an expensive salon’s scissors, as did the saga between WWE’s chairman and Donald Trump.
