Former Argentina and Manchester City striker Carlos Tevez has reportedly admitted that he "wanted to kill" Gary Neville following his controversial transfer from Manchester United to their city rivals, according to a report published on October 30, 2026.
The revelation revisits one of the most contentious moves in Premier League history, when Tevez joined Manchester City after two seasons on loan at Old Trafford, sparking outrage among United fans and former players alike.
Neville, a lifelong United servant and former captain, was among the most vocal critics of the transfer at the time. Tevez's reported comments, made years after the episode, underscore the lingering intensity of the rivalry between the two Manchester clubs.
