The era of Messi, Aguero, Higuain and Di Maria for Argentina is ending and along with that, a new breed of youngsters is emerging. Spearheading the Argentinean attack is Mauro Icardi who has blossomed into one of the best strikers in the world at the moment.
He is in breath-taking form this season and has taken his game to an altogether different level with his performances, scoring 10 goals so far in this season.
He has been Inter's top scorer in the last three seasons. The ability to snatch a win for his team, from the jaws of defeat makes him almost indispensable to the Nerazzurri.
At the moment, Real Madrid's most affordable option is Icardi because his value is going to sky-rocket towards the end of the season.
News is in the ears that Real are planning to buy him in the January transfer window. This could solve Real's goalscoring woes, because of the natural poacher instincts Icardi possesses and he could be a very good upgrade to long-serving Karim Benzema.
