At the age of 20, he was the main player in the river bed, and reached the Champions League final at the age of 25, coaching Argentina is a new dream

Football

Argentina, under Peckelman, is the champion of the 1997 World Youth Championship. Aimal, Cambiaso and Riquelme are all well-known big names for fans, but the defender teammate Diego Pratson, who scored 1 goal in 7 games, is not an unknown person.

In terms of appearance, he is a veritable handsome guy. In terms of style, he has the desire to go ahead. Even if his career has not truly completed the appointment of a wealthy family, it is in line with the evaluation that strength is greater than fame.

debuted in Argentina youth at the age of 18 and served as the main player in River Plate at the age of 20. In his youthful career, he won the Argentine Spring League championship, two Argentine autumn league championships, and a South American Super Cup championship.

It is not surprising to have the attention of European giants as they take the opportunity. At that time, Barcelona and Inter Milan had a tug-of-war with the River Plate, but Leverkusen became "Cheng Yaojin, who came out from the middle of the road."

The first thing Fogtz did after taking over the team was from Taobao in South America, but the key factor that really decided to go in both directions was a transfer fee of $7 million. You should know that the debt-ridden River Pratson was not willing to miss the opportunity to cash out. In the end, 23-year-old Diego Pratson landed in the Bundesliga.

In the five seasons he played for Leverkusen, Pratson played in a total of 123 Bundesliga games. He experienced the bitterness of the Sanya King in 2001-02 and fell into the quagmire of relegation in 2002-03. However, the Argentine is not a waste of time. He has integrated offense and defense on the left, liberating Zeroberto and Bastulk to a certain extent.

2001-02 season, in German "Kickers" magazine statistics, Placente scored 2 points or 1.5 points in almost all Champions League games (the lower the score, the better the performance).

Especially when eliminating Manchester United, Placente blocked Fran's shot on the goal line. The commentator praised it as "the most important header in his life", and took the opportunity to let the pharmaceutical factory heading to Glasgow first shout: "Come on, Real Madrid."

Prasent, with long hair, is very handsome, but he suffered a loss when he first arrived. For example, at 1.76 meters, he disliked the high wardrobe in the apartment and complained in front of the reporter: "How should I hang my clothes into the wardrobe? This kind of cabinet is tailor-made for the Germans. I can't reach it without a ladder!"

But the real damage was that when he played against Barcelona in the 2002-03 Champions League, his frequent low-level mistakes were puzzling, so that German Bistro described him as "a not very smart Argentines", while Spanish media used "two Argentines to determine the trend of the game", one of which was Placente who was a negative textbook, and the other was Saviola who destroyed the city for Barcelona.

Leverkusen seemed to be caught off guard when he left Leverkusen at the age of 28, but in fact, his competitive state was not as good as Placente, who was in the past, was already suspected of driving backwards.

In fact, Celta, a newly promoted La Liga team, received a 28-year-old Argentinian without paying a penny. The annual salary of 1 million euros is already the greatest respect and trust. At that time, Celta's chairman compared him to "our Heinze".

Although Placente has been the main player for two seasons, he has not gained a place in the Argentine national team because of this. The glory of fighting for the country has remained in the 2002 World Cup, the 2004 Copa America and the 2005 Federation Cup.

Joining the Ligue 1 at the age of 31 should have surplus value, but he has only appeared in 8 games in his two seasons in Bordeaux. It is worth mentioning that he met Kavinagi, who also came out of the World Youth Championship, who announced his retirement at the age of 33.

Pracente, who gradually became a marginalist in the five major leagues, tried to say goodbye in the form of falling leaves returning to his roots, but neither San Lorenzo nor the Uruguayan nation gave him a perfect opportunity to finish the curtain call, and even sat on the bench for the whole season.

When he was young, he had the advantage of speed and could go up and down, and fought for the country 26 times. When he was old, his chances of making cameo were deprived. Time ties his face, and his iconic long hair no longer exists.

Not embarrassing after retiring at the age of 37, and Placente firmly took the route of "playing and being good at teaching". He served as the head coach of Argentina's U15, leading the team to win the 2017 South American U15 championship. He also brought the Pampas Eagles to the semi-finals at the 2023 U17 World Cup. Last year, he replaced Mascherano and coached Argentina's U20.

Perhaps this is a new starting point given by another identity. At least he had longed for one day to coach the Argentine national team.
