Tevez: I can’t imagine leaving Man Utd

Tevez also took time to praise his relationship with coach Sir Alex Ferguson.

The 24-year-old striker said: “Alex is very good with me and I really feel he loves me as a person. He is always a gentleman in the changing room.

“He has a lot of money but is very modest. I like people like him.”

He added: “I cannot ever imagine leaving Manchester.

“I am in the perfect situation. My family is settled and very happy in England and my relationship with the club is perfect.

“Patrice Evra is my closest friend but the feeling I get from all the players is something I’ve not experienced before. I want to get the contract sorted and play for United for the rest of my career.”
