West Ham United can confirm that a settlement has been
reached today with the representatives of Carlos Tevez which will
allow the player to leave the Club.
The settlement ends the current litigation taking place between the respective parties and provides for a £2million fee to be paid to West Ham United. The agreement confirms that West Ham United do have a valid player's contract with Carlos Tevez and hold the registration of the player.

"Personally, I am looking forward to the next stage of our development as a club and for what I hope will be a very exciting new season in the Premier League."
