Manchester City assistant coach Faustino Salsano doesn't expect Carlos Tevez to be allowed to leave in January.

There have also been reports of an exchange deal between Napoli star Ezequiel Lavezzi and Tevez.

"Tevez is a City player and will remain that way until at least the summer. The problems have been resolved and now he must be at the disposal of the club.

"The Lavezzi swap is all newspaper talk and currently there is absolutely no chance of this going through. However, in future, anything could happen."
