Soccer: Manchester City boss Roberto Mancini has offered controversial striker Carlos Tevez an olive branch after their recent bust up.
Mancini claimed Tevez was finished at the club after a dispute between the pair during the 3-0 defeat by Bayern Munich in the Champions League.
The Argentina international is threatening to sue Mancini after the City manager accused him of refusing to play in the match at the Allianz Arena. But in an interview with an Italian newspaper Mancini indicated Tevez could still have a future at the club.
Mancini said: "Everything depends on Carlos. If he apologises to the squad and to me then everything will be as before. If he doesn't then Tevez has a value that everyone knows and something will happen in January. He is totally unprepared and being badly advised.
"I don't want it to be like this and I would be the first to forgive him."
