FORMER Sheffield United manager Neil Warnock has hinted that he may sue West Ham United after the two clubs came to an agreement whereby the Hammers are believed to have paid out almost £20million in compensation to the Blades over the Carlos Tevez affair.

After the dispute had raged for almost two years, the saga was finally put to an end on Monday, but according to the BBC, Warnock claimed that he would be 'seeking legal advice' about taking further action.

It is believed that the current boss of Crystal Palace will claim for 'personal losses'.

“We worked so hard that year. The club was going forward. You do feel bitter without a shadow of a doubt.

“It's just been a matter of finalising all those details first before you think about your personal losses," he told Radio 5 Live.

It was adjudged that Tevez' contribution was vital in West Ham preserving their Premier League status after it had been found that the Argentinian's contract with the club breached the League's rules over third-party ownership.
