Kia Joorabchian, Carlos Tevez's adviser, has admitted the Manchester United forward may have to move on from Old Trafford and has refused to rule out a move to Manchester City.
Joorabchian said that a contract offer from United has not been forthcoming and that Tevez will listen to offers from clubs who show the requisite ambition.
"There's a lot of interest but Carlos has always been very focused," Joorabchian told Sky Sports. "He wants to do the best he can. He will work his socks off and perform to the highest level until the end of the season."
Joorabchian would not be drawn on the list of clubs linked with the player — ranging from Manchester City to Liverpool to Milan — but did concede that "his preference is to stay in England". He said that Champions League football is not a deal-breaker, but that any potential club had to show "ambition, focus and want to be champions of England and champions of Europe".
"I don't want to direct, saying it's going to be Liverpool, City, Chelsea, Arsenal, Everton, Tottenham – whoever you can pick out – Milan, Real Madrid, Barcelona, Juventus," he said. "The key is that at the present moment Carlos is a United player and he's focused on being a United player for the rest of the season."
Tevez's agent, Adrian Ruocco, has expressed his surprise at United's failure to offer his player a long-term deal.
"There was no will from the directors and the coach [Sir Alex Ferguson] to sign a new contract," he said. "On 31 May, he will have no club and no contract. I don't know why, but Manchester United have not asked for any renewal [of the loan] nor signing him for next season.
"The directors and the coach do not seem to want him, while on the other hand fans love him."

As an athlete, Gretchen has seen tremendous improvements in her performance due to Z-Health. "I can't believe I have gone this far without Z-Health in my life, it seems like it should be the foundation of what everyone in the world should be doing before everything else. Why go lift 200lbs at the gym if you can't walk properly before that? Z-Health training is helping get my body back into the right place and feel good and prepared before I throw myself upside down in a half pipe. Things are getting easier, more connected, and more balanced then ever before — and I know it is because of all the exercises I have been doing. Every time I come in I have been blown away by the results I get. I am just getting started, but I am seeing such great results that are giving me the timing, balance, and connectedness on the mountain."
In addition to her tremendous athletic achievements, I also learned that Gretchen is a successful businesswoman off the mountain as well. She has a Signature Collection with Oakley, a Signature Snowboard with K2, co-founded Mission Skincare and has a Signature Lip Balm, and has helped create an event The Aspen/Snowmass CoverGirl Snow Angels Invitational. The Invitational has a very progressive format, hosting all the best half pipe female riders in the world, and is designed to bring attention and awareness to the environment, women's snowboarding events, and the difference we can all make. It is a weekend with a holistic component of health, education, yoga workshops, facials, fun, and much more — all for the purpose of making a difference.

This is where Z-Health comes in. "Z-Health helps me visualize, be in the moment in my body, and be aware of what I am doing and where I am in time and space, so that I can bring the best of my hard work and training to every moment."
The crash and what followed caused her to re-evaluate, "why am I doing this and who is it for. When I started snowboarding, I was looking for results to give me self worth and to fill me. Now I know who I am, I know my value and my worth. Win, lose, or draw, who I am is much more then the medals I win. I truly desire to pass on this knowledge and these experiences to other young female athletes. It takes a great deal of courage and risk to not go to college and pursue professional athletics as a career, and I hope that my learning and experience can offer some insight to anyone willing to listen. Now when I compete, I know who I am and why I compete."

How is the team feeling right now?
Losing against Switzerland definitely hurt us. We had been on a long winning streak and all of a sudden came an unexpected loss. That loss made us much stronger. We were anxious because we knew that if we failed again we’d be out of the competition. We were worried that we’d be the biggest failure of the World Cup. But the team knew how to overcome that problem and from here on out you’ll see the best Spain.
Cruyff and Luis Aragones criticize the team for playing with a double defensive pivot…
In football, when you don’t win everybody debates and when you win nobody complains… The coach is looking for more security. The offensive talent is the same but we are following in the steps of other great national teams that look to be a little more defensively sound while not forgetting about our other qualities. Our football is based on talent and the system we play gives us security.
Do you understand why some people blamed Busquets after the game against Switzerland?
‘Busi’ gives us equilibrium and he’s one of the best players in the world in his position. I won’t say that this World Cup made him mature more because he was already mature. He’s always well positioned, it’s amazing. But as you already know, when you win everything is great.
Do you think Xavi is playing out of position?
No, he’s played further up on the pitch many times before. It’s true that now he doesn’t touch the ball as much but he’s especially dangerous being so close to goal. He can give that final, lethal pass or score himself. Xavi is doing just fine.
Did Iniesta liberate himself with that goal?
He’s had a tough season. He’s suffered, like anyone who gets injured, but Andres is one of the best players in the world and he’s now feeling better.
Villa has already scored three goals…
Villa helps the national team in the same way that he’ll help Barca: goals and compromise. He plays with confidence and desire, he’s competitive and he has that special instinct for scoring goals. He’s also smart and makes things look easy on the pitch.
Portugal or Cristiano Ronaldo?
The rival is Portugal, a very compact team that has one of the best players in the world. But we’ll definitely stick to our style of play.
What do you think of Messi’s performances?
Incredible! They’ve hurt Messi a lot. He’s a player that’s always committed to his team and they constantly doubted him. I don’t understand how someone could doubt Leo, it’s amazing. He’s leading a great Argentina and I’m happy for him.
