[edit] Biography
Larrivey was signed by Italian Serie A side Cagliari in June 2007 in 4-year contract.[2]
On 12 February 2009 Vélez Sársfield of Argentine Primera División signed him on loan until the end of the season.[3] He started successfully at Vélez scoring in his debut game against Tigre. He also scored against Godoy Cruz and Rosario Central. However, after this last one (which was in the 7th game of the Clausura tournament) he couldn't score again.
On 1 July 2009, Larrivey returned to Cagliari.
On 5 August 2010, he was loaned to Club Atlético Colón.[4][5]
In 2011, Joaquin Larrivey returned to Cagliari again, this time to take a first team place. After the departure of Alessandro Matri who was sold to Juventus F.C. and Robert Acquafresca who returned to Genoa after his 1 year loan, Larrivey and Nenê have become the first chocies as strikers. He was assigned the number 9 shirt before the beginning of the season.[6]
On 21 August 2011, Larrivey scored a hat-trick in a 5-1 win over U.C. AlbinoLeffe in the Coppa Italia, becoming only the second player to do so in the history of Cagliari, together with legend "Gigi" Riva.[7]
