Javier Pedro Saviola Fernández (born 11 December 1981) is an Argentine professional footballer who plays as a forward.
Known for his speed, dribbling and ability to score from almost any attacking position on the field, he represented both Barcelona and Real Madrid, and was named as the youngest player on Pelé's FIFA 100 list of the 125 greatest living footballers in 2004. Due to his ancestry he also holds Spanish nationality since 2004, and he amassed La Liga totals of 196 games and 70 goals over the course of eight seasons; he started and finished his career at River Plate.
An Argentine international for seven years, Saviola represented his country at the 2006 World Cup and the 2004 Copa América, where his team reached the final. He also won a gold medal at the 2004 Olympics.
Nicknamed El Conejo (The Rabbit),Buenos Aires-born Saviola made his debut for Club Atlético River Plate at the age of 16, and went on to be a prolific goalscorer for the club.
He helped River to the 1999 Apertura and 2000 Clausura championships, and earned the 1999 South American Footballer of the Year award. Still only 18, he gained a reputation as a phenomenal prospect, and was even regarded as a potential heir to Diego Maradona, in particular after he broke the latter's 1978 record by becoming the youngest player to win the Golden Boot award.

El gol de Saviola contra Velez
If I lost you
If you only knew
That I would miss you
Like the stars above
If you needed me
You know I'll be right here
'Cause you can count on me
Like the air you breathe
Just keep holding on
You are the
Wonder of my world
I'm somehow lost for words
You are the the life
Within my veins
My love for you remains
In my heart
You are my world
You are my world
When I think of you
Everything
We've been through
There's so much to see
Don't give up on me
Just keep holding on
You are the
Wonder of my world
I'm somehow lost for words
You are the the life
Within my veins
My love for you remains
In my heart
You are my world
You are my world
Never thought
We'd come this far
You know there's
A place for us
All this time
I've seen you you try
So just keep holding on
'Cause you are the
Wonder of my world
I'm somehow lost for words
You are the the life
Within my veins
My love for you remains
In my heart
You are my world
