Boca Juniors president Daniel Angelici says that Carlos Tevez will join the club this summer or next summer, amid speculation linking him to Liverpool.

Boca Juniors president Daniel Angelici has suggested that it is only a matter of time before reported Liverpool target and Juventus striker Carlos Tevez rejoins the club.

The Argentine, currently at the Copa America, has been linked with a move to Anfield, with reports on Monday stating that a Premier League side had lodged a bid.

Tevez, 31, is said to be keen on leaving the Bianconeri this summer and was recently told by Juve chief Giuseppe Marotta to make a decision on his future by the end of this week.

"I want to be cautious with the arrival of Carlitos at Boca," Angelici told TyCSports.

"You have to respect Juventus, the club where he still has a contract, but I'm sure Tevez will stay at Juve or return to Boca.

"We spoke to Carlitos about his future, but at the moment we're leaving him in piece to concentrate on the Copa America. Afterwards, he'll decide with his club where his future lies, but I'm sure, if not now, it'll be next year [that he returns]."

Tevez, who began his career with Boca, joined the Italian champions in 2013 from Manchester City.
