(CNN) -- Manchester City's Carlos Tevez will not be returning to Corinthians after the Brazilian club pulled out of negotiations to sign the Argentina striker on Wednesday. Corinthians had wanted to bring the 27-year-old back to the team he represented between 2004-06, but they have now said it would be impossible to conclude the deal before the Brazilian transfer window shuts on 20 July. City manager Roberto Mancini said on Monday the English FA Cup winners had accepted a bid from the Sao Paulo outfit for Tevez, but it seems Corinthians were unable to close the deal. "The board of Corinthians hereby officially announce the impossibility of hiring the Argentine striker Carlos Tevez," read a statement on the club's official web site.
