Manchester: Kia Joorabchian, the representative of Manchester City striker Carlos Tevez, has stated that the Argentina international could join Paris Saint-Germain at the end of the season if he does not leave his current club in the January transfer window.
PSG director Leonardo revealed earlier this week that the Ligue 1 giants had ended their pursuit of Tevez as no agreement could be reached, but the transfer could be back on in the summer transfer window.
"If Carlos doesn't leave Manchester City this winter, we will not rule out the possibility that he joins PSG in the summer. That's definitely an option if he doesn't sign for Inter or AC Milan," Joorabchian was quoted as saying by L'Equipe.
"Carlos believes in PSG's project. He's held talks with Carlo Ancelotti, who is one of the best coaches in the world. He's also spoken with Leonardo, who really appreciates him."
"Carlos has nothing against the French league. He's won it all in Brazil and England and needs a new challenge. Paris is a realistic option."
Joorabchian then stressed that recent comments on Twitter about Tevez's future were wrongly attributed to him.
He said: "This is a false account. I do not have Twitter."
The 27-year-old Tevez has a contract with City until the summer of 2014, but is keen to leave the Premier League side either this winter or at the end of the season after falling out with coach Roberto Mancini.
The striker has not played for City since last September after refusing to warm up in a Champions League game away to Bayern Munich.
