This deal?
Pretty significant in multiple World Cups though, and never had to resort to cheating in any of them.
In terms of Europe very few top South American players played there in the 60's, mainly because at that time their own national leagues were on a par.
Hopefully Vydra or is he now out?

Sorry is this from a proper SAUCE or just an educated guess...? And if so which player do you mean?
Worrying...

Crap at embedding tweets but a jurno from Buenos Aires says Boca won't sell until after December and we'll 'try again' at the end of the year.

That was the first guy who tweeted so it looks fairly credible. Shame.

The Argentinian article quotes him as saying that, but talks of the likelihood of him leaving as Boca cannot turn down offers that meet their valuation. It appears that the feeling is he will leave. Which really takes me back to the only question that I think is a block. Would he come here ? If he's happy to do so, then they will sell by January.
Here's the original article:

Still think we'll have a decent signing before Tuesday's deadline. Suppose it's too much to think that Calleri would transfer to live in Sussex without seeing and facilities, area or Stadium etc. before Tuesday evening.
The fact that we are interested in him shows the massive improvement in our scouting network over the past year. It's a shame that a deal will be done but it was always a long shot and there is still time and funds to bring in one more top class player in the next two days.

Seems to fit with the 'December' thing the Argentine press was talking about. Sadly by then the bigger fish will have entered the pond. Still, great desire and ambition by Albion.
In all honesty, I don't think he wanted to come here. I think they would have sold otherwise.
No it doesn't.
It shows a massive improvement in the amount of money the club is prepared to spend.

It was reported that he had an application in process for an EU passport, based on his Italian ancestry.

It is possible Boca are holding out for 11million dollars and so have made noises about him not leaving til December. It gives them longer to get a better price and start a bidding war or Tony has to come up with more cash!
