Álvaro 'Aldo' Pedro Duscher (born 22 March 1979) is an Argentine retired footballer who played as a defensive midfielder. Renowned for his physical presence on the pitch, he also held an Austrian passport, and spent most of his professional career in Spain, playing in more than 300 official games for four different clubs – most notably at Deportivo. Over the course of 11 seasons, Duscher amassed La Liga totals of 247 games and five goals. He also had a two-year spell in Portugal with Sporting. ==Club career== Born in Esquel, Chubut Province, Duscher made his professional debuts in 1996, with Newell's Old Boys. In 1998 the 19-year-old moved to Europe to play with Sporting Clube de Portugal, where he won the Portuguese League in his second season. Duscher was then signed by Deportivo de La Coruña, for a price of €13 million. After just five La Liga appearances in his first season he featured more in the following years, as a complement and future replacement to veteran Brazilian Mauro Silva; on 10 April 2002 his tackle led to a breakage in David Beckham's metatarsal in a UEFA Champions League game against Manchester United, which almost cost the English player his FIFA World Cup presence.〔(Man Utd beats Deportivo 3–2 to make semifinals ); Sports Illustrated, 10 April 2002〕 Although he fully established himself as first-choice in midfield, Duscher's contract with ''Depor'' expired in 2007, and he eventually signed in July for Racing de Santander, where he was a key member on a side that obtained a first-ever qualification to the UEFA Cup in the 2007–08 campaign. On 9 December 2007, during a 3–1 home win against RCD Mallorca, he scored his first goal in the Spanish top division, in what was then his eighth season.〔(Racing Santander 3–1 Mallorca ); ESPN Soccernet, 9 December 2007〕〔(Jorge López, pichichi, y estreno de Duscher (Jorge López, pichichi, and Duscher debut) ); El Diario Montañes, 10 December 2007 〕 In August 2008, Duscher joined Sevilla FC on a three-year deal.〔(Racing's Duscher destined for Sevilla ); UEFA.com, 8 August 2008〕 He scored his first goal for the Andalusians on 4 February 2009, in the first leg of the semifinals of the Copa del Rey, a 2–1 home win against Athletic Bilbao〔(Last-gasp Acosta gives Sevilla narrow advantage ); UEFA.com, 4 February 2009〕 (eventually 2–4 aggregate loss). In the 2009–10 season Sevilla finished fourth and returned to the Champions League, but Duscher only appeared in ten games (three complete). Subsequently he rescinded his contract and signed with fellow first-divisioner RCD Espanyol, for one year.〔(Espanyol swoop for Duscher ); FIFA.com, 30 August 2010〕 In late July 2011 Duscher joined Barcelona Sporting Club from Ecuador, on a one-year loan.〔(Álvaro Pedro Duscher, nuevo jugador de Barcelona Sporting Club (Álvaro Pedro Duscher, new Barcelona Sporting Club player) ); Barcelona's official website, 27 July 2011 〕 The following summer, after being released by the Catalans, he signed for Enosis Neon Paralimni FC in the Cypriot First Division,〔(Aldo Pedro Duscher στο δυναμικό της ομάδας μας!
