Lucas Pratto

Lucas David Pratto, (Spanish pronunciation: [ˈlukas daˈβið ˈpɾato]; born 4 June 1988) nicknamed Oso (lit. 'Bear') is an Argentine professional footballer who plays as a striker for Liga de Primera club Coquimbo Unido. Pratto has been described as possessing unusual technique and ball control for a player of strong physique. His first professional club was Boca Juniors, by whom he was loaned to Argentine sides Tigre and Unión, Norway's Lyn and Chile's Universidad Católica. His performances for the latter prompted a transfer to Italian club Genoa, shortly after which he joined Vélez Sarsfield, first on loan and then permanently, when he was elected Argentina's 2014 Footballer of the Year. He then moved to Brazil, playing for Atlético Mineiro and São Paulo, before returning to Argentina for River Plate in 2018, with whom he won the Copa Libertadores title later that year. In 2021, he joined Dutch club Feyenoord on loan. Pratto has been capped at international level for Argentina.
