I eat empanadas and drink fernet and wine whatever I want. I take care of myself a little, but I now have an extra three or four kilos. I get up a little late. I can’t imagine going back to training and running. I used to get up at 6am to go training. I would arrive first and be the last to leave. But I don’t have the strength to do that now.
Tevez started his career with Boca Juniors, he later moved to the Premier League to play for West Ham United. He went on to play for Manchester United where he won two Premier League titles, he also won a league title with Manchester City.
