Wanderson Ferreira de Oliveira (born 4 October 1994), commonly known as Valdívia, is a Brazilian footballer who plays as an attacking midfielder for Sport Club Internacional.
Club career
Born in Jaciara, Mato Grosso, Valdívia played futsal until the age of 12. He subsequently moved to Rondonópolis and joined Rondonópolis Esporte Clube's youth setup.[1]
On 15 March 2012, after being the year's Copa São Paulo de Futebol Júnior top goalscorer, Valdívia was signed by Internacional.[2] Initially with the under-20s, he made his Série A debut on 6 October 2013, coming on as a second-half substitute for fellow youth graduate Otávio in a 1–0 home win against Fluminense.[3]
After appearing rarely in 2014 Campeonato Gaúcho, Valdívia was an important unit for the club during the year's Brasileirão, but being used mainly as a substitute; in July, already definitely promoted, he signed a new contract until 2018.[4] He scored his first professional goal on 12 October, netting the winner in a 2–1 success over Fluminense also at the Beira-Rio.[5]
During the 2015 campaign, Valdívia was one of Internacional's main assets, scoring five goals in the year's Copa Libertadores and another six in Gauchão. On 24 September, he further extended his contract for six more months.[6]
Personal life
Valdívia's older brothers, Adriano and Andrezinho are also footballers. The former is a right back, while the latter is a forward.[7]
