Carlos Tevez he reappeared in the media and announced, in a juicy interview with Alejandro Fantino, his definitive retirement from professional activity. At 38 years old and with 29 titles in his museum, Apache announced that his goal is to be a technical director. Among other things, the now ex-soccer player recalled an anecdote that dates back to his arrival in English football, more precisely to West Ham in the month of May 2007.
“I think I was lucky to be a winner in life, not just in football. It’s not normal for a neighborhood kid to come out of a neighborhood as humble as Fuerte Apache. I think that’s where the most difficult game for me is I played, since I was a child. My neighborhood was filled with values, with things that made me always surpass myself at certain times, “he began.
About the memory of the reception he had with Javier Mascherano in London: “Reaching the final my first year at United takes me straight to the West Ham, that we saved ourselves from the descent. Nobody knows that I sat down with the technical director the first day we arrived with Masche and the guy tells us ‘well, tell me what you play because I don’t know’. If you interview Mascherano you ask.”
To finish, remembering his annoyance at that time, he revealed the decision he made to reverse his situation: “We had played the 2006 World Cup. They introduced us to all the press, we finished and went with the translator. He told us that he did not know what we were playing and a year later I was champion of the Champions League.
“That didn’t depress me, on the contrary. From there I said ‘well, what do I have to do?’ I wasn’t well, I started going to training in the morning, and then I was going to play golf alone, to unlock my head,” he said.
