My Take
Taty Castellanos is exactly the hungry forward I love to follow. Born in Mendoza, Argentina, he made his name in MLS with New York City FC, even winning the Golden Boot, before testing himself in Europe with Lazio and then a Premier League stint at West Ham. That willingness to keep raising the difficulty, instead of settling, tells me a lot about his character. He has the predatory instinct in front of goal that Argentine strikers seem to be born with, and the grit to chase a moment that almost looks lost. I find players who wear their ambition this openly genuinely fun to root for.
