Valentín Barco hopes to return to Boca in the future | OneFootball

Although he didn't leave on good terms and "the thorn" still persists, Valentín Barco reaffirmed that he feels "identified" with Boca and that his desire, in the future, is to wear the blue and gold jersey again: "I would like to return."

In the midst of training with the Argentine National Team, a place he earned thanks to a remarkable season with the rising Racing de Estrasburgo, Colo spoke one-on-one with TyC Sports about his connection with the club from La Ribera, the Superclásico last Sunday, and also did not hide his desire to have a second stint.

"The relationship with the club and the people of Boca was always very good, they gave me everything. I was there since I was 9 years old. Those were 10 incredible years and I am very identified. Obviously, in the future, I would like to return because I only played for seven months and I have the thorn of not having played longer and achieved more things," Barco expressed without hesitation.

Despite his departure—triggering the release clause—at the beginning of 2024 being surrounded by controversy due to the crossfire with the Football Council and the inability to reach an agreement for renewal, and even Juan Román Riquelme himself raised his voice about the manner of it, Barco cooled down that story and stated that his affection remains intact.

In fact, Colo made it clear that "at some point" he intends to return to La Bombonera to showcase his magic and, in the meantime, he closely follows Boca's current events: "I watched the match against River, I was very happy for Chango Zeballos and for the club, which won and played very well besides."
