Tevez slams head-doctor reports

(07-11-2010) Carlos Tevez has slammed reports claiming he is seeing a psychiatrist in an effort to overcome depression. The Manchester City striker returned from Argentina this week after treatment to recover from a dead leg which has been keeping him out of the Blues first-team reckoning. The striker’s City team-mate Roque Santa Cruz has fuelled the fire by suggesting his fellow South American was homesick and battling emotionally. However, a spokesman for the player has refuted such talk. "There is not a shred of truth in it," he said. "Carlos is very hurt by these accusations. Of course he misses his daughters, just as any father would in this situation. But to suggest there is more to it than that, that he is suffering some kind of problem that requires professional help is simply not true." Tevez is expected to be fit to face Manchester United on Wednesday.
