Damián Ariel Escudero (born 20 April 1987 in Rosario, Santa Fe) is an Argentine professional footballer who plays for Brazilian club Esporte Clube Vitória as a left midfielder. He is often nicknamed ''Pichi'', the same used by his father Osvaldo Escudero who was also a football player.〔(Giovani, Adrián, Escudero, Borges, Bradley, en el nombre del padre (Giovani, Adrián, Escudero, Borges, Bradley, in the name of the father) ); La Nación, 3 July 2007 〕 ==Club career== A product of Club Atlético Vélez Sarsfield's youth system, Escudero made his first-team debut in a 0–1 away defeat against Newell's Old Boys on 4 March 2006. He found himself at the centre of a controversy at the end of the year, when the club refused to release him along Mauro Zárate for the 2007 South American Youth Championship. When the 2007 edition of the Copa Libertadores started, Escudero showed why the club was so keen in retaining his services, quickly becoming a dynamic part in the team's offensive movements. He helped Vélez reach the round-of-16 in the tournament, scoring four goals. Escudero had an irregular 2007–08 season, during which his team failed to qualify for the Copa Sudamericana. However, he did net three times in the Clausura, including once against Boca Juniors. For 2008–09, Escudero was bought by La Liga side Villarreal CF in a US$12,000,000 move.〔(Escudero, encantado de recalar en el Villarreal (Escudero, delighted to have joined Villarreal) ); Marca, 4 July 2008 〕 However, he was quickly loaned to Real Valladolid because his club's non-EU quota was already full,〔(Escudero llega cedido para potenciar el ataque (Escudero arrives on loan to strengthen offense) ); Diario AS, 12 July 2008 〕〔(Mientras tramita los papeles... (Paperwork pending...) ); ESPN, 5 July 2008 〕 appearing rarely throughout the campaign due to injury.〔(Escudero: "Tengo muchas ganas de volver a jugar" (Escudero: "I want to play again so badly") ); Marca, 9 September 2009 〕 Escudero returned to Villarreal for 2009–10, but continued to be barred by the likes of Robert Pirès and Santi Cazorla. Most of his appearances were due to injury problems to the latter, and he scored against Xerez CD on 14 March 2010 (2–0 home win) after only playing six minutes in the game.〔(El Villarreal perdona primero la goleada y termina sufriendo frente al Xerez (2–0) (Villarreal starts by forgiving rout then ends suffering against Xerez (2–0)) ); El Mundo, 14 March 2010 〕 In June 2010 Escudero was sold to Boca Juniors, with Villarreal retaining 50% of the player's rights.〔(El argentino Escudero vuelve a casa: Ficha por Boca Juniors (Argentine Escudero returns home: Signs for Boca Juniors) ); Marca, 22 June 2010 〕 In the following year he was loaned to Grêmio Foot-Ball Porto Alegrense and performed solidly but, after the two teams could not agree on a transfer fee for another loan, he returned to the Buenos Aires-based team. In January 2012 Escudero was loaned to another club in Brazil, Clube Atlético Mineiro, who paid Boca US$700.000 for a one-year contract. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Damián Escudero」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
