Thanks to his father, current Atletico Madrid boss Diego Simeone, Giovanni Simeone is not difficult to get noticed. However, the player has made a name for himself solely by his performance and is a future Argentina star. Inheriting the nickname ‘Cholito’, little Cholo, he is a skilled dribbler and plays as a striker. The 21-year old has got the qualities to make it big in international stage considering the impressive start to his career.

Moving to Genoa from River Plate this summer, he has already managed to establish himself in Europe and has found the net twice for the Italian outfit. In his full debut for Genoa, he scored a superb goal to announce himself as a potent striker. He may not be an immediate inclusion in the Argentina frontline which comprises the likes of Higuain, Aguero and others, but will certainly make it to the squad shortly.
