<p>Aguero junior also boasts strong ties to another GOAT of the football world, with <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/revealed-how-goat-lionel-messi-practises-own-training-inter-miami-ballon-d-or-winner-most-decorated-history/blt4fab598aa51da68d" target="_blank">eight-time Ballon d’Or winner Lionel Messi </a>- a former international team-mate of his dad - boasting the honour of being his godfather.</p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>With such an illustrious family tree in place, Aguero was never going to be short on talent. He has been proving as much in a video posted online which sees him sporting a retro Chelsea shirt from Fernando Torres’ time at Stamford Bridge.</p>

DID YOU KNOW?

<p>Aguero shows that he can - as his father once did - <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/news/benjamin-aguero-son-sergio-grandson-maradona-training-argentine-club-tigre/bltf86f3e8c62206570" target="_blank">hit the back of the net regardless of how big the goals in question are</a>. He also has quick feet, much like Maradona, and is part of the academy system at Independiente - the club that helped to launch his dad’s career.
