Carlos Tevez has said that he is "suffering" with the decision he must make regarding his future with Boca Juniors.

The striker has been given the chance to make a lucrative move to Chinese Super League club Shanghai Shenhua, but the Argentina international has revealed that he remains undecided about leaving his boyhood team.

The 32-year-old told TyCSports: "Today my head is thinking that I will stay, but I am suffering. I still do not imagine myself leaving Boca. I am aware of how important is everything that you transmit on and off the pitch.

"I think it's time to think and it's only me to take the decision. I know that my teammates want me to stay, that the coach wants me to stay, but the decision is mine and when I have a cool head I'm going to think."

Tevez has been with Boca since June 2015 and has previously stated that he intends to end his career in his homeland.
