Striker Tevez leaves Shanghai Shenhua for Boca Juniors
Buenos Aires, Jan 6 (IANS) Argentine striker Carlos Tevez has rejoined his former football club Boca Juniors after parting ways with China’s Shanghai Shenhua.
Boca posted an image on its website showing the 33-year-old training with his new teammates at the club’s Los Cardales complex on Friday, reports Xinhua news agency.
“Carlos Tevez, who was already in Argentina…after ending his contract with the Asian club, joined the Boca squad on Friday,” the Buenos Aires side said.
Details about the length of the contract and the transfer fee were not given.
Tevez scored just once in 16 appearances for Shanghai Shenhua in 2017 after joining the club from Boca on a two-year deal in December 2016.
Capped 76 times for Argentina’s national team, Tevez’s career has also included spells at Corinthians, West Ham United, Manchester United, Manchester City and Juventus.
He rejoined his boyhood club Boca in June 2015 and helped the team win the league title six months later.
Boca currently lead Argentina’s first division standings with 30 points from 12 matches, three points ahead of second-placed San Lorenzo.

The left-handed batsman from Haryana is garnering praise from all quarters for the way he’s finishing games regularly in the most exciting IPL season.
Gavaskar reckons Tewatia’s whirlwind knock in Sharjah (in IPL 2020) where he smashed West Indies pacer Sheldon Cottrell for five sixes in an over, gave him the confidence that he belongs to the big stage.
Speaking on Cricket Live on Star Sports, Gavaskar said, “That assault on Sheldon Cottrell in Sharjah gave him the belief to do the impossible and the confidence that he belongs here. We saw the impossible (he did with the bat) the other day as well. There’s no twitching or touching the pads (which shows a batter’s nervousness) when he bats in the death overs. He just waits for the ball to be delivered and plays his shots. He’s got all the shots in the book, but most importantly his temperament to stay cool in a crisis is brilliant.”
Gavaskar has also nicknamed the 28-year-old cricketer the ‘ice-man’ and lauded Tewatia’s ability to remain unruffled during the tense moments.
