Copa America 2019: Top 5 contenders for the Golden Boot

#3 Sergio Aguero (Argentina)

Aguero's rich vein of form means he can play a crucial role for Argentina

Strikers hardly come any deadlier than Sergio Aguero, who's coming off the back of another stellar campaign with Manchester City.

Having fired 32 times in all competitions in 43 appearances, he looks ready for another highly productive campaign in Brazil.

Aguero's record in the Copa America of only seven goals in 14 appearances over the years leaves the jury still out on his international prowess, though with the Albiceleste, he's had to fight off challenges from Gonzalo Higuain and Carlos Tevez in the past, and also play second-fiddle to Messi at times.

But all that's going to change now. In all likelihood, the City ace will spearhead Argentina's attacking vanguard in the tournament proper and would be licking his fingers at the prospect of going against the likes of Paraguay and Qatar, who've been drawn in the same group as Argentina.
