After a season with West Ham, Tevez joined Manchester United, where he'd go onto win the English Premier League twice, and the UEFA Champions League once under Sir Alex Ferguson.

Tevez made the switch to rivals City in 2009, where he won the Premier League for the third time in his career, as well as the FA Cup.

Even Diego Maradona was at the stadium, holding up a banner from his private box, thanking the 31-year-old for his return.
