Tevez Hoping For New Deal

Last updated : 16 May 2008 By Sam
United have reportedly agreed a fee of around £25million with Tevez's third-party owners for the Argentinian that they signed from West Ham last summer.

"I would certainly love to extend my contract, I am very happy here," Tevez has told the club's official website.

"I would go and sign right now if the opportunity was there.

"From day one, everyone has treated me well and the fans even shout 'Argentina', which has made me feel right at home.

"That is why I am so happy here. Now to have the opportunity to win two big trophies is fantastic. The atmosphere around the squad is amazing.

"A lot of South Americans prefer to play in Italy or Spain when they move to Europe.

"Maybe one day I'll play in La Liga, but I'm really pleased that I came to England.

"This is the best league in the world and I'm amongst some of the best footballers in the world. I'm really happy about that."
