Juventus striker Tevez will ignore World Cup

Juventus striker Carlos Tevez isn't interested in Argentina's World Cup campaign.

Tevez will be overlooked by Argentina coach Alejandro Sabella for his final squad.

"No, I don't think I will go to watch Argentina's matches," Tevez said to Cronica. "I have plans to go to Disneyland with my wife and children instead!

"When I was at Corinthians I had a great relationship with Sabella. We never had any problems and the respect was always there.

"Everyone asks me why I'm not in the national team, but I can't answer that because it would not be respectful. It's just the way things are.

"I think the CT is just happy with the players he has called up and that's it. If he wins, everyone will thank him for his decisions.

"Because of this it wouldn't be right if I were called up now.

"I haven't been part of the journey. So once I have finished celebrating Juve's victories at the end of the season, I will go to Disneyland."
