Tevez confirms desire to quit, but rules out Boca return

Tevez is known to be homesick and requested a move during the season, before going back on that.

“I want to leave Manchester City. Football has changed a lot for me and I don’t know if I will even make it to the next World Cup. And that has nothing to do with whether I’m selected or not. I’ve been treated very well here and I’m grateful. I also gave my everything for the club to receive the results it has had. But I need a change of scene,” Tevez said.

“To go back to Boca Juniors would be beautiful but it is very difficult. I spoke to their midfielder [Juan] Román Riquelme and, messing around, we agreed I would go back one day. But if we’re speaking seriously, financial issues would make my return difficult.”
