Despite securing a spot in the Campeonato Carioca final with an 11-0 aggregate scoreline, the former Chelsea and Atletico Madrid defender fell victim to soaring expectations following a stuttering start to the 2026 campaign.

Uruguay have produced a glittering array of striking talent over the years, including Luis Suarez, Diego Forlan and Edinson Cavani. However, it's Oscar Míguez, who played for La Celeste during the 1950 and 1954 tournaments, scoring eight times, who tops the nation's World Cup finals scoring charts. A more modern-day star, in the shape of Fernando Muslera, holds the no.1 spot in the all-time World Cup appearances for Uruguay though, having played 16 times during three tournaments (2010, 2014 and 2018).
