But the venture only lasted four months, Tevez stepped down as manager after he became increasingly frustrated with the politics surrounding the club.

ā€œItā€™s not a fair game for me, because Iā€™m not from here, Iā€™m not a Rosario Central born guy.Ā Ā Iā€™m a manager and I donā€™t want to do politics.ā€

Despite featuring heavily in the Argentina squad in the past, Tevez revealed that he didnā€™t follow the tournament closely but was rooting for France.

ā€œI didnā€™t follow the World Cup in Qatar very closely but I saw France a lot, because it was a team that I liked,ā€ he said when speaking onĀ Radio Mitre.

He then went on to reveal that he didnā€™t message Messi because his phone was ā€˜blown upā€™.

ā€œI have not written to Messi because his phone must have been blown up. It makes me very happy that my children celebrated his goals.ā€
