Here:
"Through my backers, I have given my word to Mr Ferguson. They have told him I'll be at Manchester United next season, and once I make a promise I don't go back on it.
"There isn't a player who would turn down this opportunity, and the negotiations are too far advanced to go back now.
"I have been open and honest with West Ham every step of the way and I hope that the fans understand.
"It will be an emotional and special day whenever I return to play them. I had two very good offers from foreign clubs in January but I refused because I had unfinished business.
"It would have been easy to move on, but I couldn't leave the club and the fans in that predicament.
"My representatives sat down with West Ham at the end of the season and once it became clear they were not going to sign me, they gave me permission to talk to other clubs, so I am surprised this is causing such a stink."
More:
"I only know Alex Ferguson from what I see from the outside but I believe he is a great manager and that I will be a good pupil for him.
"Manchester United is a team with a very offensive, attacking style of play. This is the system I always desire.
"Cristiano Ronaldo is one of the best players in the world. I have spoken with him during the season and I admire him for being a star on the pitch and on the street."
And a bit more too:
"I have spoken with Veron about Manchester United and about how difficult it is for the team and for the players to triumph because of all the pressure put on them.
"There is almost an obligation to win every game when you are at Manchester United. Nothing else is acceptable.
"That is very difficult for most players to live with but believe me when I say that those sort of challenges are attractive to me. I enjoy that pressure. It makes me fight harder.
"I have demonstrated many things in South America already in clubs like Boca Juniors and Corinthians where the expectation is so great from the fans. I have been successful and done well under that sort of pressure and now I want to repeat the experience in England.
"I think I have already shown some of that with West Ham. I loved that experience and it was always going to be a special club to make me leave there. But a club like Manchester United is one of football's superclubs."
Meanwhile the Screws say West Ham have evicted him from a club-owned flat:
West Ham have sensationally evicted Carlos Tevez from his London apartment, ridiculing claims they want him to stay at the club.
The Hammers are still locked in a bitter fight over Tevez joining Manchester United in another controversial loan deal.
Last week they insisted the Argentinian, loaned to them by businessman Kia Joorabchian, remains under contract until 2010 and they expected him back for pre-season training.
But I can reveal the club booted the 23 year old out of his Canary Wharf penthouse four days earlier-taking away all his personal belongings and moving in their new French signing, Julien Faubert.
Tevez was in Venezuela at the time where he's playing in the Copa America tournament. A source told me: "The first Carlos knew about it was when his agent out in South America suddenly got a phone call from West Ham announcing they were moving a new player into his flat that day.
"They even asked whether Carlos could arrange for someone to take his his possessions away-even though he was in Venezuela playing in the Copa America!
"Carlos was devastated and even now has no idea where all his belongings are. He has lived in that flat ever since he arrived in London from Corinthians and has naturally bought lots of his own things since then."
A legal source said: "It is utterly preposterous for West Ham to claim they have a financial stake in Carlos. There is not a court in the land that would agree.
"Tevez even helped save them from relegation, which alone saved them around £60million for staying in the top flight.
"That's surely a brilliant return for a player they got for free."
And a quote published by the Telegraph:
"I don't know anything. I'm focused on the Copa America and don't want to think about anything else."
