Carlos Tevez has admitted he could call time on his footballing career by the end of 2016.
The 32-year-old, currently playing with boyhood club Boca Juniors, has had successful spells with Manchester United, Manchester City and Juventus.
However, Tevez, who has long flirted with the idea of an early retirement, has spoken out over his frustration with a number of aspects of the Argentinian domestic game.
Top of these was the increasing pressure placed on his club by external factors such as the media, who he deems responsible for a three-match ban received earlier this month for dissent.
"The penalty was given to me by journalists and not the committee,' he told Fox Sports."They pushed to give me three matches.' "If we draw, Boca are in crisis - River [Plate] not so much,' he continued."They [River] tie and play well, everything is nice. I enjoy football but not everything that surrounds it.
Tevez was also critical of the short-term approach to fixture planning, adding:
"In Europe you know what date you will play each team for the first six months."Here, you find out on Monday if you play on Friday. There is a possibility I could quit at the end of the year. I'm thinking about it."
