The Argentine champion expressed his desire to see him with the Boca shirt many years ago.
The market is quite firm Mouth. But while Juan Roman riquelme and the Football Council calmly moves the chess pieces, the Xeneizes fans eagerly await reinforcements from the hierarchy to fight for the Copa Libertadores. However, at the moment there is a name that is above all: Arturo Vidal.
The Chilean midfielder is the greatest illusion of the Azzurri fans. He has grit, display, attitude and is very good technically. Riquelme himself called him someone who “was born for the club”. Even if the big impediment (as often happens with the stars who play in Europe) is the player’s salary.
Another one who had also given the green light to King Arthur several years earlier was the truth Diego Armando Maradona, a more than authorized voice for the Boca world. In the last few hours, with the fury for Vidal, the retro video of Diego asking about the Chilean for the La Ribera club has gone viral on social media. And he adds another chapter to this great novel.
It was 2015, on the TV show Left-handedhosted by Víctor Hugo Morales and broadcast on TeleSur, where “Pelusa” participated as a columnist.
Faced with the driver’s question about who was the best player in America at the time, Maradona replied: “For me, James Rodríguez. I love him.” After choosing the Colombian midfielder who knew how to play for Banfield, Real Madrid and Bayern Munich, among others, Diego thought about and chose another midfielder.
“I really like Chilean Vidal,” he said. And he condemned: “I like it very, very much. He is a Boca player. I would put the Boca shirt on him directly. “

The opinion of the former coach of Dorados de Sinaloa and the Argentine national team encouraged the Boca fans who started expressing themselves on Twitter. “If it was Vidal and I heard it, in 2 minutes I would cross the mountain range and be at the yellow house training“commented one user.
Another Internet user added: “Tic tac. Dale Vidal! Ask Medel what Boca is.” While another was amazed by the coincidence of opinions between the Xeneizes idols. “No, what a crazy pearl! Roman and Diego think the same way? For God’s sake. I want it yesterday with Boca’s.”
It’s clear. The opinion of Maradona, Riquelme and the Azzurri fans is the same: everyone wants to see Vidal with the Boca shirt. At the moment the financial impediment is still in force and it is not yet known what the player will decide for the future of his career.
The illusion of fans continues to grow every day. This time history has added a new chapter from the hand of “God”.
