Ricky Alvarez is training with Sampdoria after a legal battle between Inter and Sunderland.
According to SportItalia pundit Alfredo Pedullà, the Argentine will begin work with Vincenzo Montella’s squad on December 29.
Alvarez is a free agent and could therefore sign for Samp when the January transfer window opens, pending a series of medical and fitness tests.
He was on loan at Sunderland from Inter, but the Premier League club did not want to make the option to buy mandatory, claiming his injury problems made that clause void.

FIFA are yet to make their ruling official, but it’s widely reported they will side with Inter and force Sunderland to pay £8m.
