DIEGO SIMEONE’S son Giovanni may have huge boots to fill, but the 20-year-old is carving out a career of his own in Argentina.

The striker, who was born in Spain during his father’s playing days at Atletico Madrid, is on the books at River Plate but currently enjoying a loan spell at another Buenos Aires club — Banfield.

They played bottom club Crucero del Norte over the weekend and conjured up a magnificent goal in the 2-1 win.

Beginning in midfield, the sweeping one-touch passing move ends with Simeone Jr rounding the goalkeeper to prod home.
