He was pivotal in Inter's 2009/10 treble winning season and his two goals in the Champions League final at last gave him international recognitions as one of the world's most effective strikers.
He has been nicknamed Il Principe del Bernal (Italian for "The Prince of Bernal") or El Príncipe del Bernal (in Spanish) because of his physical resemblance with former Uruguayan footballer Enzo Francescoli, who was nicknamed that way (without "Bernal").
