Carlos Tevez admits to Monaco attraction

Manchester City striker Carlos Tevez has admitted that he would be strongly tempted to accept any offer that AS Monaco make him this summer.

The Argentine international has been linked with a move to the French club, who gained promotion to Ligue 1 under the guidance of former Chelsea boss Claudio Ranieri this season.

When asked about the speculation, the 29-year-old hinted that he would be prepared to swap Manchester for Southern France.

"For me, Monaco is one of the largest French clubs, and any player would go there," he told Telefoot.

"I have a one-year contract left at City and I am happy, and I love playing in the Premier League - but a project like Monaco I really like.

"I know Ranieri and he has proven he is a great coach so for me this would be great."

Tevez joined City in 2009 following a two-year stint with Manchester United.
