Boca is preparing for 2022 and fans are excited about the possible return of Darío Benedetto. The “Pipa” got into the hearts of the people and his name is present in all the pass markets.
That is why, with the forward of Elche de España as a trigger, like Gary Medel, the Chilean who has a chance to return, we will review the most important cases of footballers who returned from their experiences in other institutions and that they got to talk about in the “Xeneize”. Let’s go there.

In 2007 he went to Real Madrid for $ 27M -the most expensive sale in the club’s history- and returned to Boca Juniors in 2013, with a solid career made in Europe. Injuries prevented him from a completely happy return, but “Xeneize” enjoyed his quality and his distinctive touch.

The best player in history (RIP) left the Xeneize in 1982 to make a stopover in Barcelona and then history in Napolés. He returned to the club of his life 13 years later, after a year of inactivity, with his friend Claudio Paul Caniggia and the assembly of a Super Boca. D10S.
19 years ago the departure of Martín Palermo from Boca to Villarreal was confirmed, in exchange for 8M dollars ✈ ??

Between 2001 and 2004, the Titan played on the Old Continent. But his triumphant return for Boca Juniors happened and in a great way. He returned, after passing through Alavés, and became the top scorer (236) in history Xeneize. Unique and without comparisson.
It was 2015 when Carlos Tevez announced the bombshell: after being one of the figures that helped Juventus win the Serie A title and reach the Champions League final in 2014, the Argentine forward decided to return to Boca, the Club of his loves, where he made his professional debut in 2001. He had a brief stint at Shanghai Shenhua in 2017, but returned to Boca the following year for his third time with the team, and continued to win titles. The “Apache” is among the great idols of the club, without hesitation.
In his first stage, Riquelme became champion of the Copa Libertadores twice and helped the team beat Real Madrid in the Intercontinental in 2000 with a consecrating performance. After passing through Barcelona and Villarreal, he returned to the “Xeneize” on loan in 2007 and won the Libertadores that year again, being the great figure of the contest. He settled in Boca permanently in 2008 and continued in the club (with a hiatus between 2012 and 2013) until mid-2014. Deservedly, the greatest idol in the club’s history.
