Manchester City manager Roberto Mancini has warned Carlos Tevez’s potential suitors that the Argentinian forward will not be sold on the cheap.
Tevez could leave City in the winter transfer market after his latest falling-out with the club.
Tevez returned to his homeland earlier this month without City’s permission and has yet to report back to training.
Reports in Italy have linked Tevez with a move to Serie A, with Inter, Juventus and Milan reportedly keen to sign him.
“Tevez is strong regardless of what has happened,” Mancini said. “And great players have a price that is rather high.”
