About Ricky Álvarez
Ricardo "Ricky" Gabriel Álvarez (Spanish pronunciation: [riˈkaɾðo ɣaˈβɾjel ˈalβaɾes]; born 12 April 1988) is an Argentine former professional footballer who played as an attacking midfielder. Álvarez began his club career in Argentina in 2008 with Vélez Sársfield. His performances earned him a move to Italian club Inter Milan in 2011, where he remained until 2015. He joined English side Sunderland on-loan during the 2014–15 season, a move which was to become permanent should Sunderland retain their place in the Premier League for the following season. The deal ended in a legal dispute with Inter over the contract with the Court of Arbitration for Sport later ruling in Inter's favour. He returned to Italy, joining Sampdoria as a free agent in 2016. At international level, Álvarez was a member of the Argentine squad that reached the 2014 FIFA World Cup Final.
