Inter skipper Icardi

The controversial Argentine is still somehow the captain of the Milan-based giants - Inter Milan, despite being actively despised by a large section of the fans. That hasn't stopped him from impressing on the pitch either. The 24-year-old has scored 77 times in 123 games for Inter, while also providing 18 assists.

Icardi has constantly been linked with moves away from the San Siro, but the Inter captain has gone about his business in style without getting too distracted.

On the international level, The Argentine has managed only three caps so far, with many other prolific Argentines, including a diminutive legend in the form of Lionel Messi ahead of him in the pecking order.
