FC Barcelona buys Argentinian striker

20-year-old Argentinian striker Maxi Lopez has completed his transfer to FC Barcelona from club River Plate for 6.2m euros and a four-and-a-half year contract. Lopez came thru River Plate's youth program and had been playing regularly since 17. He is considered a powerful striker and resembles Hernan Crespo in his playing style and can play in any spot on the forward line.

The word 'Forlan' is stuck in my ear.
