Martín Palermo was a towering, indomitable centre-forward and one of the most iconic figures in Boca Juniors’ history. Fearless in the air and relentless in the box, he became the club’s all-time leading scorer, revered as much for his spirit as for his goals.

His career was marked by dramatic highs and painful setbacks, yet he always returned, scoring in Copa Libertadores triumphs and cementing his status as a genuine Boca legend adored by the Bombonera.
