Manchester City striker Carlos Tevez is unimpressed by comments coming from manager Roberto Mancini over his absence, it has been revealed.
The Daily Mail says Tevez will meet his baby's doctor to determine whether he can return from Argentina in time to play in Manchester City's game against Chelsea on Saturday.
The City striker has been on compassionate leave for a fortnight, since his wife Vanesa gave birth to their daughter six weeks prematurely.
Tevez looked set to clash with City manager Mancini when the Italian said he thought it was time for him to return to England, following Sunday's draw against Liverpool at Eastlands.
It is understood Tevez did not take kindly to those comments, but the situation could well be resolved, as he is hopeful he will hear his daughter has improved enough for him to leave South America.
This would mean he could return on Thursday and train ahead of Saturday's important Barclays Premier League match at Chelsea.
