Uruguay[]
Born in Vichadero, Álvez came up from River Plate´s youth system, but failed to appear as a senior with the first team. In 2008, he moved to Segunda División side Boston River, scoring his first senior goal on 29 November of that year in a 1–0 home win against Rocha.[1]
In September 2009, Álvez joined Coraceros Polo Club in the Segunda División Amateur, and scored 13 goals for the side; highlights included a hat-trick in a 3–1 away win against Albion.[2] He subsequently signed for fellow league team Platense, contributing with nine goals and narrowly missing out promotion.[3]
In 2011, Álvez agreed to a deal with Torque, still in the third division. He achieved promotion to the second level in his first season as champions (also scoring the winner in the final against Canadian SC),[4] and scored a 17 goals as his side missed out a consecutive promotion in the play-offs.[5]
In February 2012, Álvez moved to Toluca with Torque teammate Nicolás Milesi on a trial basis,[6] but nothing came of it. On 19 June 2013, he agreed to a one-year loan deal with Danubio.[7]
Álvez made his Primera División debut on 18 August 2013, starting in a 0–0 away draw against Cerro Largo.[8] On 14 September he scored his first goal in the category, netting the first in a 2–0 home win against Nacional.[9]
Álvez scored 15 goals for Danubio during his spell, including two braces against Fénix and one against Racing Montevideo.[10]
