Alvarez – Inter

Inter are reportedly closing in on a new contract extension for their play maker Ricky Alvarez.

The 25-year-old, whose contract with the Nerazzurri is valid until 2016, has been central to new head coach Walter Mazzarri’s plans despite failing to live up to expectations last year.

Now, according to www.tuttomercatoweb.com the Argentinean seems interested in sealing his future with Inter till 2017 or 2018.

It is believed that talks between the club and the player’s agent have been progressive and Alvarez looks likely to put pen to paper on this deal sooner rather than later.

Alvarez has played 16 times for the Nerazzurri this season, also scoring five goals.
