It could be that West Ham's Argentine pair, Carlos Tevez and Javier Mascherano, will the leave the club in as swift and bizarre a fashion as they arrived, according to a Guardian report. After flopping badly so far in England, where neither player speaks English, Brazilian club Flamengo has expressed an interest in returning the Argentina internationals to South America.
