Leandro PAREDES has stated that he would like to return back home to play with Boca Juniors.
The Argentina man would like to go back home but claims that his current club Zenit do not want to sell. Speaking with Radio La Red, here’s what PAREDES had to say:
“The defeat Copa Libertadores final defeat against River Plate made me want to return to Boca Juniors. I have already talked to BURDISSO about it and I would return immediately but it doesn’t only depend on me. The possibilities of going back are small as Zenit don’t want to sell me.”

Aca va el kit completo (como me lo imagino yo).

Sergio AGUERO scored Manchester City’s opening goal in their 2-1 win against Liverpool.
Last season’s league winners were up against the league leaders in what was described as a must win for Pep GUARDIOLA’s men. Liverpool came very close to opening the scoring but the first goal of the match was that of Sergio AGUERO’s.
The Argentine received the ball in the penalty area, span around and rocketed a shot from a very tight angle to give City the lead.
AGUERO’s goal was his 250th career league goal.
What an unreal strike from Kun Aguero 💥 what an angle to get a goal from 🔥🔥🔥 pic.twitter.com/VGRVUT7y5l
