Manchester City captain Carlos Tevez has declared himself fit for the Premier League encounter with their bitter rivals Manchester United on Wednesday night, and has warned his former club that he will celebrate if he scores.
The diminutive Argentine had been receiving treatment on a thigh injury but played against West Bromwich Albion yesterday ahead of Wednesday‘s Manchester derby.
Tevez claims he and Sir Alex Ferguson‘s well documented falling out is a thing of the past now, and is only concentrating on Manchester City. So much so, the 26-year-old has vowed to celebrate against his former club should he score.
He told The Sunday People, ”I plan to be fully recuperated for the Manchester derby.
”The match is very important for me and the club. I have fought hard to be in good condition for that game and I‘ll be ready.
”I have forgotten Ferguson. For me he is the past - if I score any goal I will celebrate. I do have respect but this match is very special after what happened last season.
”We all need to remain patient and retain confidence in the project at this club. We can still improve our image.”
