Lucas Torreira has already made it clear: his desire is to play in Boca. The Uruguayan footballer has no problem giving up money, returning to South America and saying goodbye, even for a while, to the major European leagues to fulfill his dream. Now, it will be the turn of the negotiations between Xeneize and Arsenal.
Ricardo, father of the Uruguayan midfielder, spoke with TyC Sports and referred to the possibility of his son wearing the blue and gold jacket: “In football, everything is money. When the other wants to get paid, you have a chance to pay. This is simple: does Boca want it? Get on a plane, grab a phone and start the movements that, if you feel like making the effort, with Arsenal you will reach an agreement“.
In addition, he continued the story that the footballer had told a few hours ago and gave more details of the request he made after the death of his wife, due to the coronavirus: “After the funeral of my wife, we went to a viewpoint and there she I said: ‘The millions are very useful to live comfortably. For a family that never had anything, it’s wonderful. But we lost the most important thing we had in life yesterday. Leave airplanes and helicopters for others and you will enjoy life, because this hits you when you least expect it. It’s now or never. If you want to come, come and soon‘”.
Torreira wants to be with his family to get through this tough present and they need him more than ever. Therefore, the possibility of Boca takes even more force: “We need him a little bit more here. We are all bad. Without a doubt, he will be happier in Boca.”
