Manchester City boss Roberto Mancini is eager for a decision to be made about Carlos Tevez's commitment.
Tevez missed out on a move to Corinthians last week.
The Sun says Mancini is set to hold talks with Argentinian Tevez, who is due to return to the Etihad Stadium on Thursday after his summer break.
Mancini will want the situation resolved as he pushes on with his summer recruitment - with Arsenal's Samir Nasri and Alessio Cerci of Fiorentina his top targets.
