West Ham boss admits interest in Manchester City striker Carlos Tevez
Baku, October 3 (AZERTAC). West Ham manager Sam Allardyce has admitted he would be keen on bringing troubled striker Carlos Tevez back to the club.
The Hammers have not yet made an official offer for Tevez but would be keen to bring him to Upton Park if Manchester City decide to send him out on loan.
Tevez, who scored seven goals for the Irons four years ago, has been suspended after allegedly refusing to come on as a substitute in City`s defeat to Bayern Munich.
Allardyce said: "If he would like to join us and the chairman would like to pay for it, yes.
"Why wouldn`t you want a top class player? I`ve worked with some top class players in my time, some world class players who will win you games when you least expect it.
"And with a goal record like Tevez`s - what is it 29 goals in 51 games or 30 goals in 52 starts for City, why wouldn`t you want it?
"The club hasn`t made an official approach to City. I think what might need to be thought about is to wait and see how the Manchester City Carlos Tevez situation is resolved and then if he or the club feels a loan situation might be the right idea, we would love to be in the frame."
