Man Utd Claim Tevez Soon to Sign

According to Alex Ferguson Tevez is close to signing for Man Utd,

"We are in negotiations and want to make sure there are no side issues. The essential parts are agreed. Hopefully it will be finalised soon."

However from his comments its seems that he is ignoring the fact that West Ham have said that they own the player's registration,

"To be honest, I thought it would have all been sorted by the weekend just gone. It must be the Premier League that is holding it up. From what chief executive David Gill and Maurice said, everything was ready to go. Unless something is being held back from us, I don't know of anything that is holding it up."

Well Alex, what is holding up the deal is that you have negotiated this transfer with Kia Joorabchian and his registration is held by West Ham.
