We’ve heard some bizarre stories over the years regarding ex-Premier League stars, but this latest one revealed by former West Ham, Manchester United and Manchester City forward Carlos Tevez probably tops it all.Although he spent as many as seven years in those three EPL clubs, El Apache never spoke English. Almost not a single word of it. And all that as a part of his own revenge…Maxi Rodríguez, Heinze, Veron, Tévez, Messi, Palermo, Mascherano, Higuaín, Di Maria y se asoma también Diego Milito.

I didn’t want to learn English. I wanted them to learn Spanish. I have an uncle who played in River Plate. He’s the only River supporter in my family. He played in the reserve team and when he was going to make his debut with the first team, he got called up to fight in the Falklands War. He suffered after that and became an alcoholic. That marked me a lot because he was very close to me.”##EDITORS_CHOICE##Tevez added: “The seven years I spent in England were, ‘OK, I’m here for work, but I’m not getting used to English culture.””Everything has a reason. Very few people know this story, but today I can tell it.”You want to speak to me. Then you learn Spanish because I’m not going to learn English.”Carlos Tevez: Garnacho is good. To play for Manchester United you have to be good. He plays for one of the three great clubs in the world, which are Real Madrid, Manchester City and United. To play there, you have to be a crack. pic.twitter.com/3TekKfdrKc— Albiceleste News 🏆 (@AlbicelesteNews) May 13, 2023 Tevez’s former City teammate Micah Richards recently said the South American was often separate from the rest of the squad but was close with Sergio Aguero when the latter arrived from Atletico Madrid.”He didn’t speak to anyone,” Richards continued.##NAJAVA_MECA_7261852##”He came with a big group, like seven of his family and five of his boys living with him. They watched training, he had lunch and went home. He didn’t speak to anybody.”He could speak English, I think he was pretending. [Pablo] Zabaleta stuck together a bit, when Aguero came, they were good mates together. Tevez was the one.”
