Manchester City forward Carlos Tevez is expected to secure a £13.5million move to Italian giants Juventus this week.
Tevez has been on the radar of a number of the world’s top sides, with AC Milan and Liverpool, as well as boyhood sides Corinthians, and Boca Juniors all linked with the frontman, but he looks to have set his sights on a move to the Serie A champions.
The 29-year-old Argentina international has endured a turbulent few years in the blue half of Manchester, having been cut out of the side following a number of pitch-side spats with former Blues manager Roberto Mancini.
It seemed the pair had made amends when Tevez made a miraculous return to the squad last year despite an ongoing war of words between the pair, but his future at the Premier League outfit remained uncertain.
Many imagined the forward would benefit from a clean slate when Mancini was sacked at the end of the 2012/2013 campaign and replaced by Malaga boss Manuel Pellegrini.
But it seems Tevez, who scored 17 goals in 47 appearances for City last season, is instead looking to end his four-year stay at the Etihad Stadium in favour of a fresh start in Turin, with the player set to undergo a medical and agree personal terms to the deal this week.
