biography of carlos tevez

Carlos Alberto Tévez (born Carlos Alberto Martínez on 5 February 1984)[2] is an Argentine professional footballer who plays as a forward for English club Manchester City and is currently the team's captain.[3] He has previously played for Boca Juniors, Corinthians, West Ham United and Manchester United.
He transferred to Manchester City in the 2009–10 summer transfer window, becoming the first player to move between the two clubs since Terry Cooke in 1999.[4] His energy and goal scoring rate has since made an indispensable player for the club in the eyes of fellow players[5][6] and media[7][8] alike, his importance was marked by promotion to captain at the beginning of the 2010-11 season by manager Roberto Mancini.[9]
His career has been dogged by a long-standing affair with Media Sports Investments, the company which owned the rights of Tévez,[10] and several other players and coaches.[11][12][13][14][15] This eventually resulted in West Ham United being fined over issues regarding third-party ownership.[16][17] He has made over 50 appearances for the Argentina national team, scoring 12 goals.[18]
Early life

Tévez was born Carlos Alberto Martínez in Ciudadela, Buenos Aires, and raised in the neighbourhood of Ejército de Los Andes, better known as "Fuerte Apache". It was from there that he got the nickname of "El Apache".[19] His parents changed his surname to his mother's during a conflict between his junior club All Boys and Boca Juniors.[20]
Tévez has a distinctive burn scar that runs down his neck from his right ear to his chest. He was accidentally scalded with boiling water as a child, which caused third-degree burns and kept him hospitalised in intensive care for nearly two months.[21] After joining Boca Juniors, Tévez refused an offer from the club to have them cosmetically improved, saying that the scars were a part of who he was in the past and who he is today.[
