He not only gained a foothold in the riverbed, but also became the center of the Argentine youth team's midfield. In his first season, he played 39 times for the team, including 11 starts, contributing 2 goals and 3 assists, breaking the youngest goal record in the history of River Plate - only 16 years old and 177 days.

The progress this season is even more amazing: So far, he has played in 19 games, started 18 times in various competitions, scored 7 goals and assisted 4 times, and directly created 11 goals.

His technical style: delicate dribbling, flexible rhythm control, combined with excellent vision and passing ability, makes him mobilize the overall situation like a conductor on the court. In the 433 formation that River Plate plays, he often appears in the right winger, but his playing style is closer to the front midfielder - after cutting in, organizing an attack, sending a fatal pass, and scoring to complete the end.

But the player himself hopes to set off after the end of this season, and the two sides are currently making final communication on the registration time.
