Boca Juniors are dreaming about Leandro Paredes. 'ESPN' assured that Juan Roman Riquelme, vice-president and sporting director of the 'Xeneize', called the PSG player on loan at Juventus to return to La Bombonera stadium.

Leandro Paredes is Boca Juniors' dream target. The Argentine player did not find his place at PSG and the loan at Juventus did not end up working out amid discussions with Massimilano Allegri.

ESPN' reported that the current vice-president and sporting director of the 'Xeneize', Juan Roman Riquelme, phoned the midfielder to offer him the possibility of returning to La Bombonera on loan for 6 months.

Boca Juniors are in 10th position in the Argentine League with 24 points from 17 rounds. Arch-rivals River Plate lead with 40 points. A leap in quality is a must for Jorge Almirón's side.

For his part, Leandro Paredes has scored just 1 goal and provided 2 assists in 37 games played this season. With the end of his loan spell in Turin and his return to Paris soon, the 'Xeneize' want to see their '20' back.
