Tevez: I am sad to leave Manchester United, but he made me miserable.
[Tevez: I was very sad to leave Manchester United, but he made me very sad] Tevez said in an interview that he wanted to stay at Old Trafford, but Ferguson’s false promise meant that he had no other choice. When Manchester City provided him with a core position that Manchester United did not have, he seized the opportunity.
Tevez said: "I was on loan to Manchester United. Ferguson told me that they would buy me, and then he brought Berbatov. I didn’t need to think too much because I was angry with Ferguson. As a coach, he is phenomenal. He has been in a club like Manchester United for a long time, but I have a little contradiction with him. "
"They told me at the time,’ We will buy you, but we will also bring Berbatov. Don’t worry, I’ll bring him to the competition with you. But we will talk to your agent and reach an agreement on the contract and transfer. But they didn’t call my agent, nothing. Time is running out and they want to lower my price. Every time I go on stage, I behave, and people start calling my name. This is a year-long process. "
"Later, I almost reached an agreement with Manchester City. My family and I went to Abu Dhabi to meet him and told him that I was going to Manchester City before the Champions League final."
"It’s like a dagger for Ferguson. Me too, because I love Manchester United. But for me, he didn’t let me go on stage for a whole year. He made me miserable. This makes me sad because I love Manchester United. I like playing at Old Trafford. It gives me that feeling. Then Manchester City came and they told me that they wanted me to be the core of Manchester City. He showed me the club’s plan today, that’s all. "
