United-Tevez deal to be finalised
Manchester United have booked Carlos Tevez's medical - so confident are they of a deal for the West Ham striker being rubberstamped.
The Sun says United made arrangements for the Argentina striker, 23, to fly to Manchester after last night's Copa America final against Brazil for a Wednesday medical.
United boss Alex Ferguson believes the row over who owns the player is coming to a close and the Premier League champs can end the summer's most drawn-out transfer saga by sealing a �20million deal.
Tevez is desperate to move to Old Trafford, having turned down the chance of a switch to Serie A champions Inter Milan as soon as the transfer window opened.
United are understood to have agreed to pay a loan fee of £6m over the next two years with the option of buying Tevez outright for a total of £20m at the end of that agreement.
