Tevez quoted in the Mail:
"My dream is to be an idol in English football and I can achieve this now.
"I am a player who thrives on challenges. I went to England to triumph in the Premiership and with West Ham I have achieved the first stage.
"Now I'm ready to move on to the next stage. I remember with emotion the last match with West Ham at Old Trafford. I scored and the response of the people was amazing. To be there as a member of United would be spectacular. I've had options in Italy but they were difficult."
