Manchester United midfielder Michael Carrick wants team-mate Carlos Tevez to stay at Old Trafford.

Tevez is set to leave Old Trafford as he nears the end of his two-year loan arrangement and United are reluctant to meet the asking price.

“We want him to stay, Carlos is a top player,” Carrick told The Sun. “He has scored some very important goals for us over the last few years.

“We’ve got a world-class squad, we’ve got world- class players and Carlos is one of them.

“We want to keep moving forward as a team and as a squad so we’d like to keep our best players here.

“But it’s down to the manager. I’m sure he knows the best way to make sure we do keep progressing.”
