Carlos Tevez: I won’t apologise to Alex Ferguson
Manchester City striker Carlos Tevez has opened another session of row with his former manager Sir Alex Ferguson.
The Manchester City striker on Wednesday in his home country Argentina insisted the previous apology to Ferguson was from his club (Manchester City) and not from himself.
The 28-year-old Argentina striker held up a banner designed to look like a gravestone and bearing the words ‘RIP Fergie’ as City celebrated their title triumph over Manchester United during an open-top bus parade.
Manchester City later released a statement apologising to Ferguson and criticised Tevez while the player – who it is believed took the banner from a fan – also said he “didn’t mean any disrespect”.
However, on returning to his native Argentina for his summer break, the former Manchester United was quizzed on the issue by reporters.
“It seems like Ferguson is the president of England,” he is quoted as saying by Ole.
“Every time he speaks badly about a player or says terrible things about me, nobody says that he has to apologise.
“[But] when someone comes out with a joke or banter, you have to apologise – but I won’t apologise.”
