Real Madrid plan £25m Carlos Tevez swoop?

Real Madrid have been linked with a £25m bid for Manchester City striker Carlos Tevez.

The Argentine forward came back to help the Blues clinch the Premier League title last season after falling out with manager Roberto Mancini.

However, he could now be on his way to the Santiago Bernabeu as City look to reduce their ranks to fall in line with UEFA's Financial Fair Play rules, according to The Sun.

Tevez moved to the Etihad Stadium from local rivals Manchester United in 2009 for a reported fee of around £47m.
