Carlos Tevez has gone back to playing football in the streets where he grew up - after admitting he has piled on the pounds in retirement.
Tevez, 38, pulls on his boots twice a week for a kick-about with the kids living in his tough childhood neighbourhood of Fuerte Apache in Buenos Aires. The former Manchester United, Manchester City and West Ham striker walked away from football last summer after a third spell with Boca Juniors.
He has spent the week celebrating City’s Premier League title win and Boca’s triumph in the Argentine League Cup last weekend - and revealed he has turned down offers to return to the game because he enjoys a life of leisure. But he enjoys going back to his roots to keep in some kind of shape.
