Genoa striker Luciano Figueroa has completed his loan move to Boca Juniors.

Figueroa has now returned to his homeland for the duration of the season where he will replace the injured Martin Palermo at Boca Juniors.

"The group have given me a great welcome and I already know a few of them," he revealed. "I'm hoping to acclimatise quickly and to repay the faith that the club have shown in me."
