Ex-Man Utd striker Tevez admits he could quit Shanghai Shenhua

Former Manchester United and Manchester City striker Carlos Tevez admits he could quit Shanghai Shenhua.

Tevez moved to Shanghai from Boca Juniors in December last year to become the world's highest paid footballer on £615,000 a week.

"I left not to hurt Boca,' the 33-year-old told TyC Sports. "Honestly, I do not know what I'm going to do at the end of the year.

"If I'm not hungry for glory, it's very difficult to stay in the club. I have to find myself to go back, I know I gave them everything.

"When I left, my silence bothered journalists more than people. The press wanted me to say goodbye with a note, they are difficult. For me it was not easy either. Boca fans always wants to see me with that shirt.

"First - when the millionaire offer came from China - I said no, I had Boca in my head. The final decision was in the last game, with [partner] Vane.

"I did not want to hurt the club. Flor, my eldest daughter, went down to the dressing room asking me not to leave. It was easy to stay, the fans love me, but I did the difficult thing."
