Diego Simeone has already admitted that Atletico would love the Argentine on board.

"It’s always exciting to have players like Tevez. He has the game in his blood. He’d be an ideal signing for our style of play," Simeone said.

"I have to admit I haven’t spoken with him, but I know people at the club are talking to his agent."

Despite Simeone saying he doesn't know how far a long a move is, things seem advanced. So advanced, in fact, that Tevez has already chosen the house where he will live.

The former Mancheter City striker has paid a 1.5 million euro debosit on a house in the Spanish capital through London-based company Proto Organization LTD, who also deal with Cristiano Ronaldo, Lionel Messi and Edinson Cavani.

At a total cost of 3.7 million euros, the house is 700m², has two floors and a garden which is 2,000m² and includes fountains and swimming pools.
