“I was a classic centre-forward, one of those who are no longer made. Today, in modern football, it seems to me that Julian is the most complete striker there is. He is a guy who does everything right. He’s very good on the flanks, he’s good in the centre, he’s the first defender, he’s united with his teammates, he plays very well with his header, he shoots well from the right and from the left, he has the physical strength in the short and long range, as we have seen in his goal against Croatia. Håland isn’t good on the wings, Mbappé we’ve seen that as number 9 he doesn’t participate much. And all this, Julian does. Plus, he has a huge heart and that makes him even more whole as well. It is undoubtedly the future of Argentine football.so claimed Zamorano for Ole.
