In the latest interview on French TV, the star of the Shanghai Sunflowers club constantly criticized the Chinese football scene in the context that he is playing in a foreign country and still receiving weekly salaries from the Chinese.
The 33-year-old Argentine striker joined Than Hoa Shanghai in January 2017 with a contract with a salary of up to 615,000 pounds/week. However, since then, after 8 months, Tevez has only played 13 matches and scored only 3 goals.
"In South America and Europe, people play football since they were young, not like in China. Therefore, in terms of playing skills, the players here cannot be compared.
Football in China is very different from many other regions of the world. Therefore, it is not uncommon for fans to show such an attitude. I think it will take 50 years for Chinese football to approach the level of other regions as it is now," Tevez shared.
Tevez's above statement was no different from a slape at his teammates and fans not only in Shanghai but also in other places across China. However, it is no surprise that for the past 4 months, this striker has shown a face-to-face attitude towards the club's leadership.
Tevez often skipped training, even going shopping while the whole team was playing hard on the field. Apache has also shown a charismatic attitude towards Than Hoa Shanghai fans many times right on the field.
With a poor performance and a weekly salary at the highest level in the world. Now, the Chinese are trying to eliminate Tevez as soon as possible because no one wants to "show off" a useless person who specializes in pimping on their own football.
