Tevez set for £32 million transfer

Manchester United are believed to have agreed a fee of £32 million to make Carlos Tevez a permanent member of the squad.

Tevez is currently owned by MSI and joined United from West Ham on a two-year loan. The player is expected to make his move permanent later in the year.

The £32 million transfer fee will make Tevez the most expensive player in English football. After an impressive first season at United it is clear why Sir Alez Ferguson sees the forward as part of the club's long term plans.

Last season, Tevez had a tendency of scoring at crucial moments during the campaign and also provided support and space for others. For a player of his age and quality I feel that the £32 million is justified.

Tevez is only 23 years old and has already shown us what a world class player he is. He has formed a great partnership with Wayne Rooney, the two being the main reason why Cristiano Ronaldo scored 42 goals last season and has also shown us his loyalty.

The Argentine had reportedly rejected an approach from Real Madrid this summer. Claiming he did not want to join the La Liga champions as he is happy to commit his future to United.

This is true commitment and it is what we the fans should expect from the players. Ronaldo needs to take a leaf out Tevez's book to understand what commitment is.
