Manchester: Carlos Tevez has confirmed he would be interested in a return to Corinthians from Manchester City. The Brazilian club have made clear their intention to sign the striker on loan from Eastlands and negotiations between his agent and the South American side are believed to be ongoing.
The City captain, 27, has repeatedly cited his desire to live nearer his children in Argentina as the reason for him wanting to leave Eastlands.
He told Telefife: "An offer arrived [from Corinthians] and I would have no problem returning. They got in contact with me, sent an offer to the club and in eight to 10 days the transfer market in Brazil closes."
The Argentina international, who is currently in his home country with the national side for the 2011 Copa America, played for the Sao Paulo club for a year before his move to West Ham United in 2006.
He was named the league’s best player after netting 25 goals in 38 games in his one and only season with them.
The signing of Tevez from Boca Juniors in January 2005 broke their transfer record at the time, when they signed the forward for 15 million euros.
He joined his current club from rivals Manchester United in 2009, and captained the side to their first piece of silverware since a 1976 League Cup win when they won the FA Cup final 1-0 against Stoke City in May.
He also skippered the club to their first Champions League qualification by helping them finish third in the Premier League, guaranteeing them a spot in the group stages.
