The plot thickens regarding Tevez !
This is the interesting bit, sort of answers some of the questions regarding how much and on what conditions any deal would involve.
However, it is thought Arsenal cannot afford the £28million asking price for a permanent deal and are instead preparing a £9million package to fund his wages and registration rights on a season-long loan.
United boss Alex Ferguson is also thought to be in the hunt for the Argentine and may also favour a loan deal because of uncertainty over the player's ownership.
Tevez seems certain to leave Upton Park this summer after helping to rescue the Hammers from relegation and sources claim it is between United and Arsenal for his services if he chooses to stay in England.
Inter Milan and Real Madrid are also interested, but it is thought Tevez may prefer to stay in England after his representative Kia Joorabchian was last week quoted as saying: "Carlos' heart is really in the Premier League".
