icardo Andrade Quaresma Bernardo (born 26 September 1983 in Lisbon) is a Portuguese footballer partly of Gypsy heritage,[1][2] usually positioned as an attacking winger. He plays for English Premier League team Chelsea, on loan from Italian side Internazionale.

His style of play can be defined as one with speed, grace, toughness, and often plays a free role on the pitch. He currently plays for Chelsea in the Premier League and the Portugal national football team. Initially nicknamed Mustang by former Sporting CP coach Laszlo Bölöni, his nickname in Portuguese is Cigano which literally translates into "Gypsy".
He's regularly compared to fellow Portuguese footballer Cristiano Ronaldo for the similarities both possess in terms of their speed and dribbling abilities, as well as their style of play. He also specialized the "Trivela" shooting technique, which is his ability to swerve, bend the ball perfectly with the outside of his boot when executing crosses, free kicks and long shots.
[edit]Sporting CP
While a trainee at Sporting CP's famed academy, he made his professional debut during the 200001 season playing 15 games for the B Team. In the next season, he was promoted to the senior squad by then club manager Laszlo Bölöni, playing 28 matches and scoring three goals and was a key player in Sporting's league and cup double triumph.
The 200203 was a poor season for Sporting, finishing 3rd in the league, which prompted speculation about Quaresma's future at the club.
[edit]Barcelona
Quaresma was sold to Barcelona for €6 million. His stint with the Catalan side could be best described as luckless. In his debut season he made ten starts and eleven substitute appearances, scoring only one goal. In the final weeks of the season he injured his right foot badly, forcing him to miss the 2004 UEFA European Under-21 Football Championship.
During UEFA Euro 2004, he announced his refusal to play for Barça as long as Frank Rijkaard was in charge, incurring the interest of many other clubs.
