Tevez to face disciplinary proceedings

Manchester City have confirmed forward Carlos Tevez will face disciplinary proceedings over his conduct during their recent UEFA Champions League encounter against Bayern Munich. Manager Roberto Mancini claimed Tevez refused to come on as substitute during the 2-0 defeat at the Allianz Arena. An internal investigation was launched and now Tevez has been informed he could face further punishment, following an initial two-week ban. "The club has been conducting an investigation into the events of 27 September at the Allianz Arena," said a club statement. "The club has now reached a stage in its investigation where it has concluded that there is a case for Carlos Tevez to answer of alleged breaches of contract. "Accordingly, the club has informed him that he will face disciplinary proceedings and the hearing will be convened shortly." Tevez was suspended the day after the Munich trip, pending the outcome of the investigation. That internal penalty expires tomorrow and the Argentinian forward has been told he is expected at City's Carrington training ground in the morning. "Carlos will be required to report to Roberto Mancini for training on Thursday," continued the statement.
