Bryan Sanchez profiles the latest teenage sensation to come out of South America. There is a trend that is rapidly growing in the world of football today and threatens to make dreams come true but can very easily be taken away in a second. The ?teenage sensation? is something that football fans from every country around the world talk about. Every year there?s always one to come through clubs ranks that could one day grace the international stage. There are many that have been touted around as ?the next big thing? and will most probably feature at the 2010 World Cup. Freddy Adu of the USA, Theo Walcott of England, John Obi Mikel of Nigeria; but there is a little lesser know Argentinean who has taken the Argentinean league by storm over the past two years, and he isn?t even 18 yet! Born on the 2nd of June 1988 Sergio Aguero burst onto the scene in 2003 as the youngest ever player to play in Argentina?s top league at 15 years, one month and three days old. Nicknamed ?Kun? after a Japanese cartoon he watched when he was younger; the number ?10? Independiente teenager has had a very eventful first couple of years in his football career. The little striker has turned some heads and has even got the great Diego Maradona to conclude that Aguero is his successor (D?Alessandro, Riquelme, and Messi anyone?) but add to that his amazing performances at the under-20 World Cup of 2003 in Holland, as well as some outstanding individual goals at club level and the boy does look a bit special. Several big name clubs are in the hunt for the forward. Bayern Munich, Real Madrid, Barcelona, and Villarreal have all expressed their interest and are willing to pay around the region of £14m, though Aguero's dream is to join Liverpool His record this season is impressive too for somebody so young. He has started every game this season managing a goal every other game: 13 games, six goals as well as a good assists tally. While many talented south American teenagers tend to move to Italy, Spain or France to further their career, Aguero is probably the first to actually say he would prefer to play in the English Premiership. Before all the Chelsea fans start getting excited it isn?t the Blues he is linked with but Liverpool. Aguero is a big Liverpool fan and has openly said he would be prepared to move to Anfield. Several other big name clubs are in the hunt for the forward. Bayern Munich, Real Madrid, Barcelona, and Villarreal have all expressed their interest and are willing to pay around the region of £14m. Whether or not Aguero moves continents this summer, one thing is for sure: he will be in the full national team before the age of 20 and that big summer move to Europe is definitely on the cards. Whether or not he is next Maradona is another thing and only time will tell. Sergio ?Kun? Aguero is a name not forget, and let's just hope he doesn?t end up on loan at Portsmouth one day!
