Returning to his training club Colo-Colo in Chile, Arturo Vidal (36 years old) has a very rich European career behind him. Arriving at the age of 20 in Germany at Bayer Leverkusen (2007-2011), he was then one of Antonio Conte’s base men at Juventus (2011-2015). After three seasons at Bayern Munich (2015-2018), the Chilean signed with FC Barcelona to try to win a Champions League which eluded him. His two seasons in Catalonia (2018-2020) did not result in European success, which led him to Inter Milan (2020-2022) then to leave Europe for Brazil (2022-2023) .
