Passed by Manchester City between 2009 and 2013, Carlos Tévez keeps a close eye on the progress of his former club on the European scene.
Before the duel between the English club and Real Madrid in the semi-finals of the Champions League (first leg this Tuesday in England, return eight days later in the Spanish capital), the Argentine striker gave his feelings on this double indecisive confrontation. “Between Man City and Real, it’s 50/50. I’m very happy to see City at such a high level, battling with the best in Europe. The club has not yet been able to win the Champions League, but the most important thing is to note that for a few years, the Citizens have managed to play as equals with the European leaders, challenge a giant such as Real, after having taken out Atletico Madrid in the previous round (…) It’s very impressive to see what City has become in a decade, going from a team that was trying to emerge from the midfield to a formation that looks straight in the eyes of the biggest clubs. Today everything has changed. It’s almost Real who have to worry about facing City! Everyone knows what City are capable of, everyone knows the strength of their squad and the solidity of the club.” dropped the former Argentine international.
