Hargreaves Feels For "Frustrated" Tevez

Owen Hargreaves has sympathized with Carlos Tevez regarding the uncertainty over a proposed move to Manchester United.


The former Bayern Munich man himself had his move to Manchester United put off twice, first last August, and then this January, and knows all about the frustration of an impending move not going through.

Though the specifics are different - Tevez has the additional legal wrangle surrounding his registration to worry about - the new United midfielder can relate to the Argentine international.

"Sometimes these things are difficult," Hargreaves told PA Sport. "We are all aware Carlos Tevez is a fantastic player who is obviously wanted by the club.

"It is tough to say what the situation is at the moment, but once it is sorted out, I am sure he will be eager to come here.

"When a team like Manchester United express their interest it is hard to say no, especially for someone like myself - I dreamt of having an opportunity like this my whole life.

"Every player would love the opportunity to come and play here and I am sure he is exactly the same."

Tevez is currently waiting for clearance from various governing bodies, who are scrutinizing the legality of his registration, and of the proposed move. Crucial developments are expected this week.

Eggert Magnusson has called for a quick resolution, no matter what the outcome, with everyone concerned now looking to settle this once and for all. He also admitted yesterday that they may have to let Tevez move on.

At the moment, a loan move similar to Macherano's to Liverpool is in the works, though the issue will only be permanently settled when a club decide to buy his registration from Kia Joorabchian.
