In an Instagram video, Carlos Tevez welcomed former teammates Patrice Evra and Park Ji-Sung, showcasing his opulent living space. Tevez's villa is more akin to a mini-resort than a typical home, boasting expansive grounds, integrated swimming pools, a collection of trophies, luxury cars, and a unique foosball table.
Inside Carlos Tevez's villa.
The house opens with grand double doors and a marble-tiled foyer, leading into a spacious, open-plan living room. From the entrance, guests are immediately drawn to a sleek black car parked in the driveway, complemented by unique walls adorned with green grass.
The living room is bathed in natural light, with large glass doors overlooking a mini-zoo garden. Here, Tevez displays numerous prominent memorabilia, including a FIFA 20 card with a 95 rating and a replica of the Copa Libertadores trophy. Various top scorer and man of the match awards are also arranged throughout the space.
Outside, a lush green garden connects to an outdoor swimming pool, surrounded by rocks and trees. The grounds also feature an ice cream stand, a Super Mario-themed play area, and a giant bouncy castle. Another pool is designed as a water park with multiple slides and floating inflatables. Evra humorously remarked that the scene resembled Disneyland.

A distinctive highlight inside the villa is a long hallway resembling a stadium tunnel, where images of Tevez's career milestones are displayed. His journey from Boca Juniors to Corinthians, then to English clubs like West Ham, Manchester City, and Manchester United, along with his stints at Juventus and in China, are all vividly recreated.
Another private room showcases famous jerseys and memorabilia, including his 2008 Champions League final shirt and a photograph of him lifting the Premier League trophy alongside Cristiano Ronaldo.
Additionally, Tevez owns a custom-made foosball table modeled after Boca Juniors' Alberto Jose Armando stadium, complete with stands and distinctive colors.
The villa features yet another crystal-clear swimming pool, alongside an outdoor kitchen designed for barbecues. Tevez himself enjoys demonstrating his culinary skills by grilling various meats.
