Ricardo León Brito (born 8 February 1983 in Santa Cruz de Tenerife), simply Ricardo, is a Spanish footballer who plays for Sporting de Gijón as a central midfielder.
[edit] Football career
Ricardo made his professional debut with local side CD Tenerife in 2005–06's second division, and achieved La Liga promotion in his fourth year, being an essential element of the success. In his first season in the top flight, he appeared in 29 games (all starts, two goals), but his team was immediately relegated back.
In mid-June 2011, with the Canary Islands side relegated to level three, Ricardo penned a three-year deal with Sporting de Gijón.[1]
