Barcelona forward Lionel Messi says he does not understand why Manchester United are still to sign Carlos Tevez on a permanent deal.

The former West Ham man completes a two-year loan deal at Old Trafford this summer, with Sir Alex Ferguson's side having the option to sign the Argentine for a fee believed to be in the region of £20 million.

However, any deal for the powerful front-man has yet to be agreed.

Tevez himself has revealed he expects to leave the Premier League champions this summer, with Liverpool, Manchester City and Real Madrid just some of the clubs being linked with his signature.

While United argue that they intend to negotiate an agreement to keep him at Old Trafford with the player's representitive, Kia Joorabchian.

But Messi, who could line-up against his fellow countryman in next Wednesday's Champions League final in Rome, is perplexed at why the reigning English, European and World Champions are risking losing his services by taking so long to sort out his future.

“I have no idea why Manchester are letting my countryman go," he said.

"He is talented enough to be in every team in the world’s starting line-up."

Tevez only wants Liverpool move

Manchester United boss Sir Alex Ferguson won't start Carlos Tevez in next week's Champions League final.

The Sun says Tevez will be joined on the bench by Dimitar Berbatov for the game against Barcelona as Ferguson sticks with the strikers who tore apart Arsenal in the semi-final.

Tevez will see it as the final insult, proving that he must leave to get regular first-team football.

Even if United come up with the deal needed to make his loan move permanent, Tevez is now convinced he has to quit Old Trafford.

And despite interest from Spurs and Real Madrid, the Argentina striker has his sights set on United's rivals and neighbours Liverpool.

well, i think he wants to go Pool and stick it in MU the next season...

frankly, if reports are true, he doesn't deserve to be treated like this. But I am amazed, how did he ever put himself in such mess in the first place... from west ham days I meant.
