Ferguson has interrupted his holiday in the south of France several times over the past two weeks to ring Tevez and appeal to him to think carefully about the consequences of leaving a club of United's standing, but the Argentinian has now told the manager that he planned to sever his ties with the Premier League champions.
And he confirms that City have made an approach:
City have offered Tevez a 75% pay rise, meaning a £140,000-a-week salary, and the chance to re-establish himself as a first-choice player, whereas, tellingly, in all the various discussions with Ferguson there has been no indication from the manager Tevez can expect to play in more of United's key games this season.
I'm sure this will be cleared up over the next fortnight, and a positive outcome looks more and more likely for us.

I would love to see us sign Tevez, but as the saga rolls on, I have the feeling that Tevez does really want to stay at utd and he's using this speculation to get a better deal out of them.
