Edinson Cavani has reiterated his desire to leave Manchester United in a meeting with club officials, according to reports.
The Uruguay international has impressed since moving to Old Trafford last summer.
Juan Roman Riquelme, a Boca legend who currently works as the club’s vice-president, has reportedly held talks with Cavani.
“I talk a lot with Cavani. We were together for about four or five months in Manchester but he’s a great person and we have a good relationship,” the defender told ESPN earlier this month.
“When I came here he asked how I was doing, if I was having a good time, because he saw everything I went through in England.
“It’s important that great players, the size of Cavani, who is a historical player from Uruguay and who played in very great teams, say they want to come and play at Boca. I think he speaks very well of the club and Argentine football.
“When I told him that there was the possibility of coming to Boca, he told me that he had also spoken with [Juan] Roman [Riquelme] and that he liked the option very much, that he would be interested in the future. He has to make that decision with his family.”
