Agustín Canobbio Graviz (born 1 October 1998) is a Uruguayan professional footballer who plays as an attacking midfielder or winger for Campeonato Brasileiro Série A club Fluminense and the Uruguay national team.[2]

Early life

Canobbio was born on 1 October 1998 and raised in Montevideo to former professional footballer Osvaldo Canobbio and Verónica Graviz.[3][4] Through his father, Canobbio is of Italian descent and holds an Italian passport.[5]

Club career

Canobbio is a youth academy graduate of Centro Atlético Fénix.[6] He made his professional debut for the club on 30 August 2016 in a 1–0 league defeat against Cerro.[7]

Peñarol

After his outstanding performance with the Uruguay national under-20 football team, Canobbio joined Peñarol in 2018, playing a total of 66 matches across domestic and international competitions, and winning the Supercopa Uruguaya and the Uruguayan Primera División of that year. In 2019, the club decided to renew his contract, but after inconsistent performances, his contract was not renewed for 2020.

In 2021, after another stint at Fénix, Canobbio returned to Peñarol, where he played a key role in the Copa Sudamericana, scoring against Corinthians Paulista and River Plate Asunción in the group stages, as well as providing several assists. In the round of 16, he scored against Club Nacional de Football at the Estadio Gran Parque Central, and was also a standout in the return leg of that match. This earned him a contract renewal for the 2022 season.

Athletico Paranaense

In March 2022, Canobbio signed a five-year contract with Athletico Paranaense.[8] The deal, negotiated by his representatives, was finalized for 3,200,000 dollars, around 2 million euros.[9]

Fluminense

On 11 January 2025, he joined Fluminense, following Athletico's relegation at the end of 2024 season.[10]

International career

Canobbio is a former Uruguayan youth national team player.[11] He was part of under-20 team which won the 2017 South American U-20 Championship and reached the semi-finals of the 2017 FIFA U-20 World Cup.

On 7 January 2022, Canobbio was named in Uruguay's 50-man preliminary squad for FIFA World Cup qualifying matches against Paraguay and Venezuela.[12] However, weeks later, after Lucas Torreira and Diego Rossi tested positive for COVID-19, Canobbio was called up to cover their absences; he made his senior team debut on 27 January 2022 in a 1–0 win against Paraguay.[13] He was eventually included in the final squad for the 2022 FIFA World Cup and the 2024 Copa América, the latter of which he would win third place under Marcelo Bielsa.

On 31 May 2026, Canobbio was named in Uruguay's 26-man squad for the 2026 FIFA World Cup.[14] He scored his first World Cup goal in a 2–2 draw with Cape Verde.[15] He was sent off with a red card in the closing moments of their final group stage game against Spain, which ended in a 1–0 defeat and group-stage elimination.[16]
