Man City admit Tevez nearing return

Roberto Mancini has revealed Carlos Tevez is around 2 weeks away from making a full return to the first team. The Argentine played 45 minutes of a friendly against Preston reserves this week.

"I think he needs another two weeks and in this two weeks we put two or three games with the reserves as he needs to play," said Mancini.


"For him it is like pre-season, after two months it is not easy to play. At this moment he can't play but in two weeks maybe he can play."
