Manchester United boss Sir Alex Ferguson admits they could lose Carlos Tevez at the end of the season.

Last night Ferguson revealed to the Sunday Express: "We'll try to work our way through it. If the transfer happens then it happens. If it doesn't then we will just have to move on. It's unfortunate but that's life.

"He wants to stay, he is happy here and you would hope that would be the deciding factor."

United are believed to have become frustrated with the financial demands of some of the people who surround Tevez.
