Vidal continues to be linked with a Barca exit, the veteran Chilean star a reported target for Serie A side Inter.
The 33-year-old has insisted he is happy at Camp Nou, where he arrived from Bayern Munich in 2018.
Amid the ongoing speculation, former Boca midfielder Medel claims Vidal wants to move to La Bombonera in Buenos Aires.
"Arturo would like to play in Boca with me or without me," Medel, who played for Boca between 2009 and 2011, told Radio Continental.
"He loves Boca and follows them on social networks. He is the only one who follows Argentina and is dying to go. Boca have a magnitude in Europe that you cannot imagine."
It comes as Inter sporting director Piero Ausilio distanced the Italian club from Vidal, who worked with Nerazzurri head coach Antonio Conte during the pair's time together at Juventus.
"I don't feel like making any final considerations, let alone for Vidal. Right now he's not an opportunity for us. We already have a very strong central midfield," Ausilio told Sky Sport Italia.
"[Christian] Eriksen arrived in January and, like anyone else who arrives in January, he needs time, not just to settle on a technical level.
"I've never seen a player who comes to Serie A and immediately makes the difference.
"Think of [Michel] Platini and [Zinedine] Zidane, they're the first two examples that spring to mind."
The Manchester United star is reportedly unhappy at Old Trafford, where he endured an injury-hit campaign prior to the coronavirus pandemic.
But another club are reportedly trying to sign Pogba.
TOP STORY – INTER EYE POGBA
Inter are dreaming of signing Manchester United midfielder Paul Pogba, reports Gazzetta dello Sport.
Pogba has been heavily linked to former club and Serie A champions Juventus, as well as LaLiga giants Real Madrid.
However, Inter are now in the mix to bring the French star back to Italy.

Not only is there a question mark over who will be in charge, but United must also freshen up a squad that has once again underperformed this time around.
If reports are accurate, it may well be that two of United's long-term targets end up reuniting at Old Trafford.
TOP STORY – POCHETTINO WANTS KANE TO JOIN HIM AT UNITED
Mauricio Pochettino has long been considered the favourite to take over from Ralf Rangnick should the interim manager, as expected, step aside at the end of the season.
According to the Telegraph, Pochettino wants assurances that he will be financially backed if he leaves Paris Saint-Germain, with Tottenham striker Harry Kane reported to be on his radar.
Kane and Pochettino previously worked together for five and a half years at Tottenham and are said to still remain in contact.
However, Spurs resisted big-money interest from Manchester City for their star player last year and are not expected to budge too much on their valuation in the next window.
