Inter Milan chief Marco Branca admits they remain keen on Manchester City striker Carlos Tevez. After Milan pulled out last week, the Nerazzurri became favourites to sign the Manchester City want-away striker, but PSG are now in front.

"I think that Tevez is in reality close to Paris Saint-Germain, as his agent received a very good offer from the French club," Branca told RMC Sport.

"In any case, I am not optimistic or pessimistic with regards to Tevez. We are still interested and will continue discussing matters with his agent.

"We are studying how to get back into the hunt for Carlos over the next few days. We are not running late in this race.

"I believe Carlos and his agent can wait a day or two, seeing as he hasn't played for Manchester City for several months.

"It's not as if the situation will change over the next 48 hours. Besides, the transfer window certainly doesn't close tonight or tomorrow."
