How did the Manchester United players rate in their clash with Stoke City?
And more details over Romero’s link with the Buenos Aires side have emerged.
According to the Independent, Romero was in talks with Boca manager Barros Schelotto over a proposed move back to his home country.
Romero is thought to have been tempted by the offer after 10 years playing in Europe.

Romero could still leave United in the summer however
But the shot-stopper has decided against a transfer and will stick with United at least until the end of the season.
It is claimed Romero could be moved on in the summer when United have had a chance to fully assess 20-year-old keeper Joel Pereira, who is currently on loan at Belenenses.
Discussing Romero’s future before United’s draw with Stoke today, Mourinho said: "I cannot have a better goalkeeper than David (De Gea), I cannot have a better replacement than Sergio. I cannot have a better professional than Sergio.
"I want them both to stay. So, if there is something true in relation to Boca, I will try to stop it because I want Sergio to stay."
