Tevez unlikely to make derby date
Carlos Tevez seems certain to miss Sunday's Manchester derby.
The Argentina star was desperate to feature at Old Trafford after his controversial summer move from United to City.
However, he was always a doubt once he injured his knee on World Cup duty against Brazil last week.
The Argentina medical staff claimed Tevez would be out of action for three weeks but Blues boss Mark Hughes vowed to give the former Boca Juniors star every chance to face his old club as City look to maintain their 100% record.
"He is back here today (Tuesday) and we'll assess it from there, but he is very doubtful," City assistant boss Mark Bowen told the club`s official website. "What we are hearing is that it's probably going to keep him out, but until the doctor assesses him hands-on
we don't really know.
"The boss has been in contact with the Argentina medical team, as has our medical team. But the signs are not encouraging. We wouldn't 100% rule him out yet - fingers crossed and we are always hopeful, but it's very doubtful."
