Lovers soccer 90 They will remember that fine Uruguayan player with an oriental look who played in the ranks of Inter Milan at the end of the last century. A talented young man who was nicknamed “The Chinese”. Por supuesto, Uruguayan fans, they know perfectly who we are talking about. Well then, Alvaro Recoba, still active and in top shape, at least as far as your individual talent is concerned. Although somewhat far from the international spotlight, he continues to score goals in his country's league.

Nacido en 1976, llegó en 1997 to Europe to play in the ranks of one of the greats of Italy, Inter Milan who had just signed a football star like Ronaldo who had triumphed in the ranks of Barcelona and had players like Iván Zamorano. It was not something ephemeral, he spent eleven years wearing the blue and white shirt with a small paragraph in the form of a loan to Venezia where he scored 11 goals in 19 parties. His last season, He spent it on loan in Torino and in 2008, more than a decade after arriving, I was leaving Italian football.

Played almost 300 matches at Inter and scored more than 70 goles. Then he went to Greece and returned to Uruguay to play for Danubio and Nacional, just the two teams he had played for before going to Milan.. Precisely in the latter he continues to do his thing by making Olympic goals, something that you have already repeated several times. And it is that the years can pass but as long as the body holds, talent is still intact. The Chinese Recoba, one of those players from before who survived in football in the second decade of the 21st century.
