It's not Messi, this legend says who the best Argentine player is and his answer is surprising

This is without a doubt one of the best strikers in the world. He led the team to Serie A champions two years ago, then led his team to nothing more and nothing less than the UEFA Champions League final against Manchester City. In case you haven't guessed yet, it's striker Lautaro Martinez.

At only 26 years of age, the player has already become the absolute leader of Inter Milan and also the starting center forward of the Argentina national team, with whom he won the 2022 World Cup in Qatar. Now, a legend has praised above the rest of the Argentine players.

In addition to the great consideration that the Italian coach has for the attacker, the same thing happens in the Argentine National Team with Lionel Scaloni. Even though Lautaro is going through a bad streak with the Albiceleste jersey, the manager continues to place him as a starter. It should be noted that Martínez's work is not only based on scoring goals, since he is usually an important factor for the team when it comes to putting pressure on the rival. 

The praise of a legend to Lautaro

At a festival organized by La Gazzetta dello Sport, Roberto Baggio was asked who his favorite Argentine player is. The winner of the Ballon d'Or in 1993 did not hesitate and responded: "Lautaro Martínez. I had already seen him in Racing, when he scored 3 goals in the Libertadores. He is truly the symbol of Inter. In addition to scoring goals, he also defends. He is a player extraordinary,"
