Wow, sounds pretty "interesting". Sorry, did someone say money laundering?

BUENOS AIRES (Reuters) -- Argentina's Carlos Tevez is set to join
Corinthians of Brazil after Boca Juniors agreed on Monday to transfer the
forward for close to $20 million, a director of the Argentine club said.
"We're going to sign a letter of intent. It's $18 million for 80 percent of
the (player's) registration plus one and a half million in transfer costs.
Tevez says there is no question that he wants to go," Boca vice-president
Pedro Pompilio said.
"The (Boca) board of directors will meet on Thursday and the sale should be
approved there," Popilio told Radio Mitre of Buenos Aires.
"The transfer...is on track. The player spent two hours in a meeting with
(Boca president) Mauricio Macri and told him he wants to go now. He doesn't
want to wait until June."
Argentine media said the 20-year-old Tevez, who top-scored with eight goals
in six games as he inspired Argentina to the soccer gold medal at the Athens
Olympics in August, will leave for Brazil in the next few days.
"What saddens us and annoys us a bit at the same time is that our best
player, and at such a young age, should have played such a short time at
this club," added Pompilio.
"We wanted him to stay and play the next edition of the Libertadores Cup (in
2005)."
Tevez, who helped Boca win the Libertadores Cup in 2003 and reach this
year's final, has attracted interest from some of Europe's biggest clubs,
including Bundesliga side Bayern Munich.
