Carlos Tevez has been out of management for the past year but remains a high-profile figure in world football.
Especially to Manchester fans who remember his explosive Premier League stint.
The Argentine forward famously donned red before switching to blue, joining Manchester United in 2007 and later moving controversially to Manchester City in 2009.
In total, Tevez scored 27 goals in 89 appearances for United before netting 73 times for City during a four-year stay.

Since hanging up his boots, the 41-year-old has gradually shifted into coaching.
He began his managerial journey in his homeland with Rosario Central in 2022.
Followed by a brief spell at Independiente, which ended in early 2024.
Now, Tevez is officially back in management.
He has been appointed as the new manager of Club Atletico Talleres, though in Argentina the role is formally titled ‘Technical Director’.
The club confirmed the news via their statement on official club website, following the abrupt resignation of Diego Cocca and his entire coaching staff on Monday morning.
“After the resignation presented by Diego Cocca and his coaching staff this morning, first to the players and then to the authorities.
“The Board of Directors made the decision to hire Carlos Tevez as the new Technical Director of Albiazul Professional Squad.”

“We value Carlos Tevez’s conviction in the project, international trajectory and leadership capacity,” Club Atletico announced.
Tevez takes over a side struggling in 14th position in Group B of the Argentine top flight, facing an uphill task to turn the club’s fortunes around.
He will lead his first training session on Wednesday at the Amadeo Nuccetelli High-Performance Sports Centre.
Just hours after accepting the role.
His debut on the touchline will come this Friday as Talleres host San Lorenzo in a crucial league fixture that could shape the start of his new chapter as manager.
