The 2004 Athens Olympics saw a 20-year-old Argentine striker finish as the tournament’s top scorer with 8 goals from 6 games and announce himself to the world. That performance triggered the biggest transfer in South American football till that point in time as Brazilian club, Corinthians signed him for a record deal.
Tevez learned his trade at the youth academies of All Boys and Boca Juniors and he began his senior career with the latter. He spent three years of his career at Boca winning numerous trophies. His stay in Brazil with Corinthians was relatively short as he moved to England with West Ham United just six months after his move to Brazil. During his time in South America, Tevez won various individual honours including three South American Player of the Year awards.
Tevez has played for both the Manchester clubs and has won the Premier League with both of them. After seven years in England, he moved to Italy to join Juventus. In June 2015, he returned to Boca Juniors and won the Copa Argentina and the Argentine Primera Division. Tevez has made 76 appearances for the national side and has scored 13 goals.
He has always been a key figure in all the clubs he has played and on his day, he was one of the best strikers in Europe.
