Crespo insists Lautaro is a superior centre-forward compared to Napoli's Romelu Lukaku.
Speaking to La Gazzetta dello Sport, he said: “I think he is a mix of a few Argentinians. In the penalty area he is deadly like Aguero. In acrobatics I see myself in him, even if he needs to improve his heels. In his mind he is as good as Batistuta, even if he doesn't have the same power.
“And then he is fast, when he counter-attacks, and you don't take the ball away from him… Ask a defender if he prefers to mark Lautaro or Lukaku, and let's hear the answer…
“It is much more difficult to stop Lautaro because he has more quality. Lukaku only relies on strength, Lautaro is definitely more complete.”
