Carlos Tevez, Manchester City (Getty Images)<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Manchester City<\/a> manager Roberto Mancini<\/a> has confirmed that no new teams have come in for unsettled striker Carlos Tevez<\/a>.
<\/span><\/p>\n


After a proposed move to Corinthians broke down, the Argentine remains part of Mancini\u2019s squad and the Italian manager says he will play as long as he is on the books.<\/p>\n

\u201cCarlos comes back Monday, because he had 21 days off after the Copa America,\u201d Mancini told Sky Sports News<\/em>.<\/p>\n

\u201cThat was the agreement with him.<\/p>\n

\u201cCarlos is a City player. At the moment we don’t have any news about other teams, so Carlos will play for Manchester City.\u201d<\/p>\n

Mancini is not concerned either by Mario Balotelli\u2019s recent comments that he is struggling to settle in Manchester.<\/p>\n

\u201cMario’s the same, he’s not changed,\u201d said the former Inter boss.<\/p>\n

\u201cI think he maybe wanted to say that he was missing his family and his friends.<\/p>\n

\u201cI’ve spoken with him many times and he loves the supporters, he loves his team-mates, and he likes to play in the Barclays Premier League.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe’s young, he’s only 21 years old, and he’s maybe missing his family.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen you start to play football, you are a professional player, and this situation can happen if you want to go and play in a different country. It\u2019s normal.\u201d<\/p>\n

Balotelli has been a controversial figure since arriving at the club, and had recently attracted criticism from Mancini for not taking a pre-season match seriously.<\/p>\n
