Igor Lichnovsky Osorio (born 7 March 1994) is a Chilean professional footballer who plays for Spanish club Sporting de Gijón on loan from FC Porto as a central defender.

Club career

Universidad de Chile

Born in Peñaflor near Santiago to an Austrian father,[1] Lichnovsky joined Club Universidad de Chile's at the age of 8. On 20 November 2011 he first appeared in the Campeonato Nacional, playing the full 90 minutes in a 0–0 home draw against Club Deportivo Universidad Católica for the Clausura in which he was also voted as Man of the match.[2]

Lichnovsky scored his first goal as a professional on 29 April 2012, contributing to a 5–0 derby home win over Colo-Colo.[3]

Porto

Lichnovsky's good performances for both Universidad and the Chilean national youth teams attracted interest from English club Chelsea.[4] However, nothing came of it, and in late June 2014 he signed a four-year contract with FC Porto from Portugal, being initially assigned to the B-team.[5]

Lichnovsky played his first competitive match on 17 October 2015, in a 2–0 win at Varzim S.C. for the season's Taça de Portugal.[6] On 22 January of the following year, he was loaned to Sporting de Gijón until June,[7] making his La Liga debut on 17 February by featuring the full 90 minutes in a 1–3 home loss against FC Barcelona.[8]

International career

Lichnovsky was capped by Chile at under-17 and under-20 levels. He participated with the latter in the 2013 South American Youth Championship, helping his team qualify to the 2013 FIFA World Cup in Turkey whilst acting as captain in both tournaments.[9][10]

Lichnovsky made his debut with the full side on 14 November 2014, playing the entire 5–0 friendly win with Venezuela at the Estadio CAP in Talcahuano.[11][12]
