Juventus forward Carlos Tevez is set to leave Turin in the summer for a return to Argentina with Boca Juniors.
The former Manchester City man has been thinking about returning to his homeland for some time now and it was believed he would eventually leave for Argentina after his contract with Juventus expired in the summer of 2016.
Juventus have been trying to agree a new deal with the forward but he has repeatedly knocked back offers of a renewal and it seems his exit from the club is going to happen sooner than expected.
According to Corriere della Sera, Tevez has asked Juventus to grant him a transfer to Boca Juniors at the end of the season.
The Argentine has assured the Juventus hierarchy that he will show his full commitment until the end of the term and help the club in their quest for Champions League glory but wants to bid farewell to Turin in the summer.
