FA Called To Broker Tevez Deal

Man Utd and Joorabchian are calling for the FA to help negotiate the transfer of Carlos Tevez away from West Ham. Most of the papers seem to quote 'a source' saying 'all the lawyers agree' that West Ham can't just tear up the agreement they had with MSI without questioning the fact that Joorabchian's lawyers might be a little bit biased or even asking some independent lawyers.

In fact it is interesting to note that most of the papers seem full of praise for the American owners of Man Utd spending over £58 million in transfer fees and seem quite happy for Man Utd to offer Tevez £90,000 a week in wages.

West Ham have spent a fraction of that and have a wage bill that is only a fraction of some other Premier League clubs and Eggy is blamed for distorting the market.
