Alan Luciano Ruschel (Brazilian Portuguese: [ˈalɐ̃ ˈʁuʃew]; born 23 August 1989), known as Alan Ruschel, is a Brazilian professional footballer who plays as a left back for Juventude.

Ruschel was one of just six survivors in the crash of

LaMia Airlines Flight 2933, which killed 71 people including 19 Chapecoense players.[2]

Club career

Born in Nova Hartz, Rio Grande do Sul, Ruschel started his career at Juventude.[3] He made his senior debut on 20 January 2009, starting in a 1–0 Campeonato Gaúcho home win against Sapucaiense.

Despite appearing regularly in the year's Gauchão, Ruschel never established himself a starter for Juventude, and subsequently served loans at Pelotas and Luverdense. In May 2013, he joined Chapecoense permanently.[4]

On 3 July 2013, Ruschel was caught in a

Internacional.[7]

A backup to

Fabrício, Ruschel made his top tier debut on 14 September 2014 by starting in a 2–0 home win against Botafogo.[8] The following 8 January, he signed a new three-year deal with the club.[9]

On 6 August 2015, Ruschel was loaned to fellow top-tier club

Atlético Paranaense, until December.[10] After appearing in just one match, he suffered a knee injury and his loan was cut short.[11]

On 7 June 2016, Ruschel returned to Chape, now in a temporary deal until the end of

2016 Copa Sudamericana Finals
for the first time ever.

On 28 November 2016, while travelling with Chapecoense to the aforementioned finals, Ruschel was one of only six survivors of the

back injury which was later fixed through surgery.[14] A few days later, a video was recorded with Ruschel walking again.[15]

On 7 August 2017, Ruschel played his first match since the incident, playing in the 2017 Joan Gamper Trophy for the first 35 minutes and receiving a standing ovation along with his other two surviving teammates.[16]
