Carlos Tevez may be turning 33 in February 2017, but an offer from the Chinese Super League could allow him to celebrate that birthday as the world's best-paid footballer.

Clubs from the country have previously paid huge sums for likes of Alex Teixeira, Jackson Martinez and Ramires and the splashing of the cash could continue with the Argentine reportedly offered 40 million euros per season.

According to Yahoo Sports Brazil, one unnamed Chinese club is willing to pay El Apache 60% more than the 25m euros earned by Leo Messi and Neymar at Barcelona.

In February of this year the Argentine turned down a deal with Shanghai SIPG worth 22m euros per season in order to stay with Boca Juniors, but it remains to be seen if he'll now reconsider a move to Asia, with Brazilian side Palmeiras also reportedly interested in him.

Graziano Pelle is currently earning 16m euros per season with Shandong Luneng, while Ezequiel Lavezzi, Ramires and Asamoah Gyan are all taking home 13m euros per year in the cash-rich league.
