Argentinean football star, Carlos Tevez, said Thursday that he would decide on a move to the Chinese League "with a cool head" during his upcoming honeymoon.

"I do not rule out that Sunday (against Colon) might be my last game (for Boca Juniors). But I do not see myself leaving Boca, I cannot imagine it. I am suffering greatly," he said in an interview with TyC Sports, an Argentinean TV station.

The star forward said that he knew "my teammates want me to stay, as do the coach, the management and the people."

"I will decide with a cool head" while on honeymoon "in a sunny place," explained Tevez.

The footballer has been offered a lucrative contract by Shanghai Shenhua, coached by Uruguay's Gustavo Poyet.

Tevez is set to marry his partner, Vanesa Mansilla, with whom he has three sons, in Colonia, Uruguay.

"I have many open fonts, my marriages, Boca and China ... It is not the time to decide anything. All the possibilities are open," he concluded. Endit
