Mark Hughes has offered to take Carlos Tevez off his former club Manchester City’s hands – and help them win the title.
QPR boss Hughes admitted it was “probably wishful thinking” that he could bring the work-to-rule Argentine’s firepower to Loftus Road.
Hughes brought the best out of Tevez – nine goals in 20 games – when the pair worked together at City.
Now, the Rangers manager has admitted: “I would take him every day of the week. But much as I would love to think it could happen, I’d be very surprised.”

Roberto Mancini is battling it out with Juventus for the signature of Roma’s attacking midfielder David Pizarro.
The 32-year old’s agent, Giuseppe Bozzo, has booked a flight to London on Tuesday morning for talks with Manchester City officials, after Roma decided he could go out on loan for the rest of the season, with a view to a permanent near-£1million move.
Mancini, who coached Pizarro at Inter Milan, sees the Chilean’s ability to play in central midfield or just behind the strikers as an ideal way of reinforcing City’s title challenge.
Pizarro, who earns around £60,000 a week, is also wanted by Juve

Sky Sports sources understand that Bayer Leverkusen are in talks with Tottenham to sign Vedran Corluka.
Corluka joined Spurs from Manchester City in the summer of 2008 and was a key player under Harry Redknapp during his first few years at White Hart Lane.
However, the right-back has slipped behind Kyle Walker in the pecking order this season and has been starved of first-team opportunities.
Redknapp has a wealth of defensive options and it now appears as though he would be prepared to let Corluka leave.

Hugo Rodallega will face Tottenham on Tuesday night – and could end up signing for them after the game!
Spurs are ready to make a deadline-day swoop for Wigan’s Colombian striker, who is available as he will be out of contract at the end of the season and is refusing to sign a new deal.
And Harry Redknapp is looking to pull off one of the most remarkable moves of the window – if he is given the all-clear by chairman Daniel Levy.
Tottenham emerged as late bidders for Rodallega after QPR had a £4million bid snubbed because they are one of Wigan’s relegation-battle rivals.
