He blasted: “I totally disagree with Carlos and what he says because I have never treated him badly.
“Maybe it’s the the opposite and I treated him too well — always.
“But now it’s finished. I don’t want to talk any more. This is the last question I will answer about him for the next three months.”
“I don’t want to answer this question as the game is more important than this.
“But I will answer only this question and after this — no more.
“We have this game and it’s a very important game against a top club in Porto.”
A source close to Mancini said: “The manager is a very forgiving person and he was willing to open the door again for Carlos. But he was hurt by what was said in the interview — a lot of his staff were hurt by it.”

Tevez says Mancini would never have treated him the way did if he did not have new signings like Sergio ‘Kun’ Aguero, Mario Balotelli and also Edin Dzeko hitting form. He said: “I don’t know if he would have done the things he did if this was last season. Last season, Man City was Tevez and no one else. But Dzeko, Kun and even Balotelli are playing well — so Mancini decided to sack me.”
“If it’s true that Mancini wants me, I’m happy but I don’t know if he is saying the truth because he is contradictory.
“Let’s see what happens this week. I would say sorry if I was wrong.
“I was sacked by Man City through the back door but I want to be back and change things. If I score goals, people will love me again.
“I’m going back to Manchester because I want to win the love of the fans again. People have been against me since the game with Bayern.”
He said: “Manchester City investigated the incident. Me, the players, the staff and even Mancini were talked to, and no one said I didn’t want to go on the pitch.
“OK, I didn’t want to warm-up again, I had done it twice already. Mancini said immediately that I was out of the team. I told Mancini I had been ready to go on against Bayern. He treated me so badly, as he was angry with Dzeko. He insulted me.”
“Mancini didn’t want to see me at all. It was not a normal life. I was training with 15-year-old kids, they couldn’t believe it.”
Tevez has had to return to Manchester after leaving back on November 7 because he has not been sold and is not being paid.
Tevez said: “I received many offers from Milan, Inter and PSG but City didn’t want to lose money on me. I trained by myself in Buenos Aires.”
“It’s a great challenge, I’m coming back to Manchester with all my energies. Four months ago, I didn’t want to play any more and I thought about quitting. But now I have never wanted to play football as much as I do today.
“I would like to help City win the title against United, that’s my wish.”
he hailed his former boss Alex Ferguson at Manchester United as the greatest manager — along with former Argentine coach and current Athletic Bilbao chief Marcelo Bielsa.
“Ferguson is the best, he and Bielsa are the best. OK, Ferguson treated me badly at the end but he is still the best.”
