Future Star

Facundo Colidio
Nationality – Argentina ??
Age – 18
Club – Inter Milan
Position – Striker/Centre Forward

Inter had to pay €7m to deny competition from Juventus and Manchester City for Facundo Colidio but the Nerazzurri are supremely confident that it will prove a shrewd investment, with the Argentine striker having made a good start to repaying his transfer fee with a double in the Supercoppa Primavera win over Roma in January.

The Argentine 18 year old was signed from Boca Juniors on a three year contract in Sept 2017.

Given his nationality and club, comparisons are being made to the Inter Milan captain Mauro Icardi but, in truth, Colidio’s style is more akin to that of Gonzalo Higuain, given his movement and greater involvement in build-up play.
