Forgive Juan Pablo Angel if he’s feeling a bit like Marty McFly these days, as we take you back, and then to the future.
Over 12 years ago, the Colombian hitman joined Argentine powerhouse River Plate from his hometown club, Atletico Nacional of Medellin. For two seasons, Angel was in heaven, playing alongside the likes of Javier Saviola, Pablo Aimar, Santiago Solari, and Ariel Ortega. With the plethora of talent around him, Angel managed to notch an amazing tally of 45 goals in 91 matches, including 16 more in 25 Copa Libertadores games.
