Carlos Tevez is prepared to play for Manchester City despite handing in a transfer request, his adviser has said.
Kia Joorabchian claimed the 26-year-old Argentina striker wants to leave as he feels the club reneged on promises which were unrelated to money.
Joorabchian told the Daily Telegraph: "Carlos has never said he is not going to play so those rumours are rubbish.
"He will play if picked and 100% do his best. He feels that is important every time he puts on the shirt."
Tevez joined City in 2009 following a two-year spell with rivals Manchester United.
But less than 17 months into a five-year contract, the former Boca Juniors, Corinthians and West Ham forward has asked to leave.
Tevez said his relations with "certain executives" at City had "broken down beyond repair" and that his desire to exit was "something I have felt for some time and have spent many hours thinking this through."
Joorabchian suggested the player's feelings stem back to the end of last season, when big-spending City were pipped to the final Champions League place by Tottenham.
