Bienvenido de vuelta

That’s welcome back in Spanish for all you non-polyglots out there, and that was the message to Carlos Tevez last night as he received a hero’s welcome back to Boca Juniors.

The former West Ham and Manchester United player quit Juventus this summer to return to his boyhood club, and in scenes that would put Turkish football fans to shame, he was greeted by 40,000 supporters in La Bombonera.

Diego Maradona was also there as well as he unveiled his own special banner for the returning Argentine legend
