Argentine striker Carlos Tevez tied the knot on Thursday afternoon with Vanesa Mansilla in an extravagant service in San Isidro, reports Daily Mail. Tevez was pictured wearing a unique light blue suit and white shirt in the provincial district close to the Argentine capital Buenos Aires. The 32-year-old outgoing Boca Juniors striker looked in an ecstatic mood on Thursday as he married his childhood sweetheart Vanesa.
The pair met when Tevez was 13 years old and have remained together as his career took him across the world, with stints at Corinthians, West Ham, Manchester United, Manchester City and Juventus. Tevez and his wife are thought to be celebrating their ceremony over a four day period with 260 guests before the striker prepares for his move to China. The Argentine is set to sign a staggering contract with Chinese Super League club Shanghai Shenhua worth an estimated £615,000 a week. Tevez said an emotional goodbye to Boca Juniors fans on Sunday night. The former Premier League star took the opportunity to say farewell to his first club after they beat Colon 4-1. Tevez, who scored the club’s second goal, was substituted in the 90th minute at La Bombonera to allow him to receive a rapturous reception from the packed stands.
