Álvaro Francisco Ampuero García-Rossell (born September 25, 1992) is a Peruvian professional footballer who plays as a centre-back or left-back for Atlético Grau.

Ampuero has an outstanding advancing potency which combined with his precise shot make of him a constant threat on an attacking position. On August 25, 2012, he was signed by Parma to play for five seasons.[1]

Club career

Ampuero made his official debut for Universitario de Deportes on 1 September 2011 in a Copa Sudamericana elimination match against Deportivo Anzoategui, at the age of 18. Starting at the left back position, his debut was a memorable one as he managed to score the first goal in the 2–1 away win for his club and was voted man of the match. This was also his first official goal, which was scored in the 30th minute by dribbling past his defender and shooting a strong left-footed shot into the bottom-right corner of the net. Ampuero made his Torneo Descentralizado debut on 17 September 2011, against Sport Boys away to the Estadio Miguel Grau. He started at left back and lasted the entire match, but it finished in a 2–0 loss for his side.

He made his Serie A debut for Parma on March 17 in the 2–0 loss against AS Roma.
