    The Mail claims that the transfer will be completed next week, subject to any challenge from West Ham, who insist that they still own the registration of the player who was instrumental in securing their Premiership survival last season, but whose third-party ownership created a furore in England that is still rumbling on.</p>

    The Hammers, though, do not have a contract with Tevez and the owner of his registration, businessman Kia Joorabchian, leaving the Argentiner star and his representative free to negotiate a transfer with other clubs. </p>

    If confirmed, the news from South America, where Tevez is with Argentina's Copa America squad, means that United will have taken their summer buying spree beyond &pound;70 milion - making them world football's biggest spenders. </p>

    Tevez, who was once fined while playing for Corinthians for turning up to one of the Brazilian club's press conferences wearing a Manchester United shirt, is a close friend of United's Argentine defender Gabriel Heinze. Tevez was reportedly a guest at United's Premiership title-winning party in London. </p>

    "He just cannot contain his excitement at the news," said a source close to the Argentina camp. </p>

    "Tevez has been concerned about his future, worried about where he may play next season and now he is joining the biggest club in the world! This is massive news." </p>

    The Mail reports that United were hoping to keep news of the transfer quiet until the controversy over Sheffield United's appeal against being relegated instead of West Ham, who it is claimed should have lost points for fielding Tevez, died down.</p>

    The paper adds that the deal will not be officially announced until the middle of next week, with the official transfer fee and wages still to be confirmed. </p>

    United have already signed Portuguese winger Nani and Brazilian midfielder Anderson on five-year contract, and have brought in England midfielder Owen Hargreaves from Bayern Munich. The total cost of those three deals is reportedly &pound;50 million. </p>

    Tevez had also been linked with Inter Milan, Real Madrid and Arsenal, although West Ham had been hoping to keep him. </p>

    Haha, thought you meant 40 Million pounds and that it was official. </p>

    Lots of pressure on ManU to win the title with this signing.</p>

    Also might be harder to move Heinze as those 2 are friends.</p>
