The discussion about the best Chilean soccer player in history always finds new chapters, especially when careers like those of Arturo vidal Y Alexis Sanchez they evoke what he forged Elijah Ricardo Figueroa the last century.
All opinions are valid, but there is one that is especially important. And he is none other than Edgardo Marín, the most transcendent historian of our football and journalist with more than 50 years of experience in the media.
And Marín, in his column today for the newspaper The Mercury, expresses its decision. “Arturo Vidal is the best ever by far. The rest is useless stubbornness, with all due respect. His discipline? Well, when they begin to consider good behavior, they have to warn,” he says.
The expert establishes a series of “acceptable criteria to decide”, and mentions the “clubs in which the applicants have played, titles won, career extension and contribution to the national team.”
“No one comes close to Vidal’s card after 15 years of first level football and 33 years of age. In Chile, Colo Colo, a first level club with which he won three titles,” the communicator introduces by listing the virtues of the midfielder of Inter Milan.
“German football is world-class, where it has registered six seasons, divided between Bayer Leverkusen and Bayern Munich, at different times. He got bored of being champion with Juventus of Italy, with four consecutive titles,” he adds.

And then he does his review at the national level, where Vidal tells a separate story. “National selected in two World Cups and America Cups, winning the title in two of them”, initiates the historian.
Lo de Marín is a declaration of principles that will undoubtedly bring up the decision about the best footballer in history, a title that has been in the hands of Elías Figueroa since the 1980s.
Vidal lived a sad day this week in the Champions League. Inter Milan lost their visit to Real Madrid 3-2, a result that leaves them at the end of Group B of the continental tournament and complicates their desire to advance to the round of 16.
King, who has the Champions League as his highest aspiration, will return to the courts this Sunday against Atalanta, and later must join the Chilean team with a view to participating in the double elimination date of November.
