Milan's offer for Tevez rejected: Galliani

AC Milan‘s offer for Argentine striker Carlos Tevez has been rejected by English football club Manchester City, the Serie A giant’s vice president Adriano Galliani confirmed.

Tevez has agreed personal terms with Milan but City do not want to release him on loan with an option to buy at the end of the season.

“Milan are only looking for a striker in the transfer market after Antonio Cassano’s health problem,” Galliani said.

“At the moment Manchester City have rejected our offer for Tevez. If it is accepted, then good, otherwise he won’t come to us,” Xinhua reported.

“We will meet with City again and try to convince them from here to Jan 31. If we do not succeed, then either another striker will arrive or nobody at all,” he said.
