Agent opens door to Real Madrid move for Man City captain Tevez

The agent of Manchester City striker Carlos Tevez says a move to Real Madrid would suit him.

Kia Joorabchian feels Tevez would be more comfortable in Spain.

He told talkSPORT: "A move to Spain might solve that problem. It's about the language and it's about [the location] culturally. In Spain they will speak the same language, you can see that a lot of Argentinian and Brazilian players live in Spain, they adapt very easily in Spain.

"Carlos himself, as a person, adapts almost anywhere. You can see that his football has adapted anywhere he has played in the world. He's never had a problem on the field. There are a lot of players who cannot adapt in certain places because they struggle but Carlos is not that kind of person.

"You look at the likes of Cristiano Ronaldo who moved to Spain. Why did he move to Spain? He wanted to be somewhere that culturally he felt a little bit closer. There is no bigger club in the world than Manchester United. You can't say that Real Madrid are bigger than Manchester United, you can say that they're equal. People leave for different reasons."
