Playing style Prono is one of the greatest prospects of Paraguayan football. He is compared with Radamel Falcao and Lucas Barrios. His main ability, despite being a 178 cm tall, is his headers. This began in the Libertad youth system, when the youth coach told Prono to throw a ball in a wall and head it every day.
