Carlos Tevez

  Carlos Tevez London - Arabstoday Manchester City will push for a full six-week suspension and £1.5million fine for Carlos Tevez — even if he proves he did not directly refuse to play against Bayern Munich. City believe Tevez's refusal to continue to warmup in preparation to come on is enough to warrant the punishment.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  The club have taken legal advice and are trying to present a watertight case to the PFA to show Tevez deserves more than the two-week suspension and £500,000 fine he has been given. A fortnight is the maximum a player can be given unless there are extenuating circumstances which have to be put before the players' association so the suspension and fine can be extended. As it is, City are ready to cite Tevez's post-match Sky interview in which he said: "I did not feel right to play so I did not." That interview contradicted his statement the following day in which he claimed he did not refuse to play. Boss Roberto Mancini wants him on the transfer list and will only allow him to train with the reserves in the afternoon. THE SUN .
