Tevez deal done.

Does this mean it's finally all over.

Carlos Tevez has completed his move to Manchester United after the Premier League ratified the deal.


The drawn-out transfer has now been concluded after a two-year loan deal for the Argentine was cleared by the Premier League.

Tevez has moved to Old Trafford after spending last season with West Ham United and has been waiting to finalise his switch.

The champions have confirmed the striker is now an official member of the squad after training with the club this week.

"Manchester United is delighted to announce that Carlos Tevez has been registered as a member of its first-team squad by the Premier League," read a statement on the club's official website.

I wonder if this will mean a move from King Kev and the Legal Lads?

Quote from Chris Kamara on sky sports, that the legal battle for compensation is not over. Sheffield United could find themselves the richest team in the Championship.

From The Star........

SHEFFIELD United are considering suing West Ham over the Carlos Tevez affair.
The Blades are determined to win compensation for being relegated last season and their lawyers are investigating a possible High Court case against the club.

Sources close to Sheffield United say they want to target the Premier League but have been told by legal advisers that they must first sue West Ham because their former owners misled the Premier League about the original Tevez deal.

Blades plc chairman Kevin McCabe said: "I am having meetings with our lawyers over the next couple of days and then we will make a decision."

Hammers chairman Eggert Magnusson, however, is unconcerned about the possible court threat.

Magnusson commented: "That doesn't even enter my mind. Our lawyers say there would be no legal grounds for that.

"Everybody has to take a commonsense approach to this matter now - it is about time it was over."

Meanwhile the long-running Carlos Tevez saga is finally over.

Manchester United have confirmed Tevez has joined the Old Trafford club on a two-year loan, ending a protracted period of negotiation which has lasted almost throughout the summer.

The 23-year-old's registration with West Ham was cancelled by the Premier League but every item of paperwork within the new deal has been scrutinised in an effort to avoid the kind of wrangle which erupted over the 'third-party' ownership of Kia Joorabcian during Tevez's time at West Ham.

Although Sir Alex Ferguson had expected the deal to have been completed long before now, the United boss felt it was "understandable" it should have taken so long.

Grrr... if you hadn't cheated in the first place the problem would never have been there. Don't try to take the moral high ground - your team CHEATED with collusion from the PL, and you will pay the price - if not through the courts, then on the field of play. Remember, what goes around comes around...

The man winds me up so very, very much!
