For Sale By Owner: World Class Midfield Playmaker

By: Daryl | June 23rd, 2007

Juan Roman Riquelme won the Copa Libertadores with Boca Juniors on Wednesday (scoring three goals over two legs) and then re-emerged from international retirement by agreeing to play for Argentina in the Copa America this summer. He is, once again, hot stuff.

But Villarreal still don’t want him. The Spanish club loaned him to Boca Juniors for the year, and don’t want him back. So, eager to help, I’m sharing this YouTube collection highlighting Riquelme’s incredible talents. Hopefully someone somewhere will be interested in signing one of the world’s most talented midfielders, and – more importantly – in giving me 10% off the transfer fee for my trouble.

  I don’t mean to discourage you, but I already tried to sell him in January to no avail. I’s useless, no club wants poor Riquelme

  Surely the LA Galaxy will scoop him up.
