Diego Alberto Milito is an Argentine footballer of Italian origin who plays as a striker for Italian Serie A club Internazionale and the Argentine national team.A prolific and consistent centre-forward, Milito has statistically averaged just over a goal every two appearances, over the course of his 10-year professional career. He was pivotal in Inter's 2009–10 treble-winning season and his two goals in the Champions League final.
He has been nicknamed El Príncipe ("The Prince" in Spanish) because of his physical resemblance with former Uruguayan footballer Enzo Francescoli, who had the same nickname.
Milito scored two goals on his international debut against Uruguay in 2003, but appeared only intermittently during the following years,and was omitted from the 2006 World Cup squad. He played for Argentina in the 2007 Copa América tournament, gaining playing time after Hernán Crespo's injury in a group stage match against Colombia and he was also included in Argentina's final 23 player roster for the 2010 FIFA World Cup.<\/P>","4EB8C1CDD4A86AD4B213AF7FAE87E4FE":"Inter Milan","8084EC95B881D770":"Racing Club","7F6018B84729B122B8EE7594158DA382":"Inter Milan,Genoa,Zaragoza,Racing Club","3F6EEC72E60D52B53E2E6377341938DB":"0","90579B4DEA63C3E4":"Diego Alberto Milito","86178E7285C328960D9569BD40C7D883":"1979-6-12","7777CB48C34672EC8F83E174F0B7EFC7":"","1BB8AF7BD3F66066":"183cm","816C8DE73A2D153866B49ADDE8EB04C4":"Italy,Argentina","2F200EF80307E2A90BE724565D2038D0":"2014-6-18","0E9052569923A91555E1DAF3C456F9CD":"
