AC Milan defender Gianluca Zambrotta does not believe that Manchester City attacker Carlos Tevez will cause trouble in the Rossoneri dressing room should he complete a loan move to San Siro.
Milan is keen to sign the controversial forward on a six-month loan deal, and Zambrotta has stressed that the Argentine will integrate without problems, just like Antonio Cassano previously did.
"Tevez could disrupt the harmony in the dressing room? They said the same when Cassano arrived at the club and they also said [Zlatan] Ibrahimovic could cause problems," Zambrotta said in an interview with La Stampa.
He added, "However, they both integrated without noteworthy problems. If Tevez arrives at the club, the same thing will happen."
It's questionable whether Milan will succeed in its attempts to lure Tevez to San Siro this winter as it only wants to sign the forward on loan, while Manchester City insist on selling the flamboyant Argentine permanently.
