Tevez released on bail after driving arrest

Manchester City striker Carlos Tevez is facing up to six months in jail after he was arrested on suspicion of driving while disqualified.

Tevez received a six-month driving ban in January after he failed to respond to letters from police in relation to his being caught speeding on numerous occasions.

The 29-year-old Tevez was stopped by police in Macclesfield, England on Thursday and was arrested, and according to a statement from Cheshire Police, Tevez posted bail.

If convicted, Tevez faces a maximum of six months in prison for driving while disqualified.

In all competitions this season, Tevez has tallied 12 goals.
