Tevez to snub Inter for AC Milan

Carlos Tevez looks set to snub interest from Inter
Milan in order to join its bitter city rival AC Milan,
according to the Argentine's agent, Kia
Joorabchian.
While Inter's technical director, Marco Branca,
travelled to England to meet Manchester City
officials on Thursday, Joorabchian held talks with
Milan chief executive Adriano Galliani in Rio.
Joorabchian told Italian media that he is hoping to
come to an agreement with Milan rather than
Inter.
"We're here (in Rio) to finalise with Milan. We
haven't heard from Inter since August," he said.
Following a telephone conference call involving
Tevez, Galliani, Joorabchian (all of whom were in
Rio) and City, the agent added: "I'm confident that
Milan and Manchester City will soon come to an
agreement."
Italian press claim Tevez has already found a
home in Milan - close to the La Scala Opera House
- and that City will give Milan an answer next
week.
Galliani is said to have described the offer made to
the Premier League leader as "fantastic".
The Milan neighbours are not the only ones
keeping tabs on Tevez, as French league leader
Paris Saint-Germain is also believed to be
interested in the 27-year-old.
Milan originally offered to take the striker on loan
until the end of the season with an option to buy
him for 23 million euros (A$28.7m) in the
northern summer.
But City refused to consider a loan deal and said it
will not sell him unless its asking price - believed
to be considerably higher than Milan's first offer -
is met.
If Milan cannot land Tevez, Galliani will reportedly
turn their attentions to Catania's Argentine
forward Maxi Lopez.
