MANCHESTER City outcast Carlos Tevez has been offered a way back into the Premier League club's plans by manager Roberto Mancini but only if he apologizes for refusing to warm up in its Champions League match at Bayern Munich in late September.
British media quoted Mancini telling reporters at Valencia airport on Tuesday on the way to their Champions League game at Villarreal that the Argentina striker needed to say sorry for refusing to take instructions during their 0-2 away defeat.
"Sorry is a little word, an easy word," the Guardian newspaper reported Mancini as saying. "Everything depends on Carlos. But I think these are easy words - very, very easy. If he apologizes then everything will be like before. If not, then we look at (selling him in) January. This is what I've told him: all of us can make a mistake.
"The important thing is to apologize and then it's finished. And he can finish it. It is easy. These are crucial words. But these are easy words."
Mancini added this was the reason he had invited Tevez to his house after the Argentine's two-week suspension.
"But this was 20 days ago. It wasn't yesterday. I told Carlos 20 days ago to apologize, and he said no. I don't know his agent (Kia Joorabchian) but I think the people around Carlos are giving him bad advice."
Reflecting on his own career as a player, Mancini said: "Every time I made a mistake, I apologized, It's a very easy word to say."
