Lucas Alario
In the last 18 months, River Plate star Lucas Alario has made a strong case to be included amongst the very best Argentine attacking talent. The 24-year old joined River Plate from Colon in July 2015 and has had a wonderful year and a half with his new team, scoring some very important goals in the history of the club.
Alario has 6 goals and 1 assist from his 13 Primera Division games this term and due to his goalscoring prowess, he has been earmarked as the next big thing in attack for Argentina and has been linked with a move to Tottenham in the past.
An all-round striker, Alario may not be the strongest in the physical sense, but he is adept at holding up the ball and also good in the air. Alario’s temperament is just as strong as his skills on the pitch. With Tottenham struggling to find a good second striker, Alario could be the way to go in the summer.
