He is also capable of reaching the opponent&#39;s box, possesses tremendous vision for the game, can cover lots of ground and knows how to protect the ball.<BR><BR><STRONG>Boca Juniors<BR><BR><\/STRONG>Gago came from the youth divisions of Boca Juniors, made his professional debut with Boca in the 1&#8211;0 victory over Quilmes on 5 December 2004. Despite his youth, he quickly became an essential part of the Boca midfield, and attracted attention from European clubs such as Real Madrid and Barcelona.<BR><BR><STRONG>Real Madrid<BR><BR><\/STRONG>On 15 November 2006, Real Madrid President confirmed the signings of Gago as well as compatriot Gonzalo Higua&#237;n of River Plate. The transfer was finally agreed on 19 December 2006 for &#8364;20.4 million. Since the move, he has been very impressive in the defensive midfield position, which led to comparisons to former Argentina &quot;number 5&quot; Fernando Redondo from Jorge Valdano and many other pundits. Gago made his debut for Madrid in the 2&#8211;0 La Liga defeat against Deportivo La Coru&#241;a on 7 January 2007.<BR><BR>On 20 May 2007, with the score tied at 2&#8211;2 against Recreativo Huelva, Madrid looked set to return the lead back to rivals FC Barcelona until Fernando Gago gave a last minute assist to Roberto Carlos, who scored at the end of the match and the squad left Huelva with just three &quot;finals&quot; left to play. Real managed to beat Recreativo 3&#8211;2 at the Estadio Nuevo Colombino and went on to win the league title.<BR><BR>Before the start of the 2007&#8211;08 season, Gago changed his number from 16 to 8. In his second season at the club, Gago displayed his true ability with a series of top class performances in the centre of Madrid&#39;s La Liga-winning midfield. He managed to claim a first team spot in place of Mahamadou Diarra and was a key figure in the club&#39;s second successive league title. During the January transfer window Gago was very close to signing for Manchester City. He had agreed personal terms although an agreement worth about &#163;15m could not be agreed between both teams.<BR><BR>In beginning of the 2008&#8211;09 season, Gago only played two games due to an injury he picked up during the Champions League match against BATE Borisov. He managed to recover in time and was named in the starting eleven for 27 October La Liga clash against Athletic Bilbao. At the end of the season, Fabio Cannavaro returned to Juventus. This left the number 5 shirt, which Gago had initially wanted when he first signed for Real Madrid, was now available. Gago willingly offered his number 8 shirt to new arrival Kak&#225; and took number 5, the same number he wears for Argentina. Under Jos&#233; Mourinho, Gago struggled to get gametime because of a lengthy injury spell and Mourinho&#39;s preference of Xabi Alonso and Sami Khedira in the defensive midfield.<BR><BR><STRONG>Loan to Roma<BR><BR><\/STRONG>On 31 August 2011, Fernando Gago moved on loan to Serie A side Roma with a view to a permanent move, until the end of the 2011-12 season, after over a 100 appearances for Real Madrid in La Liga during his 4 and a half years stay at the club.
