Aguero slapped the striker of “Atletico” Madrid.
Argentina star Sergio Aguero has dropped a bombshell in the Tango camp when he announced his full preference for Lautaro Martinez in the No.9 battle, stressing that Julián Alvarez is “not a traditional, genuine striker”.
Aguero’s comments came as a slap in the face of a heated debate over the identity of Messi’s strike partner ahead of the World Cup’s knockout stages.
Aguero said during the program.La casa del conOn Argentina’s ESPN.
He added decisively. “I think Argentina needs an outspoken striker, and Julian, in my opinion, is not a traditional outspoken striker.”
Aguero did not underestimate the value of the star of “Atletico” Madrid, but assigned him a different role. “Julian can play on the wing as a second striker and he can also play alongside Leo.”
He concluded his support for Martinez. “I’m happy with Lautaro’s goal because it gives him more confidence as a striker in the next game.”
Aguero’s announcement ignites controversy over the identity of Argentina’s main striker since the start of the World Cup.
So far, Lautaro has been outnumbered. He started in three group stage matches, playing 180 minutes and scoring a goal against Jordan. Alvarez, on the other hand, has played 142 minutes and has yet to score a goal.
