Template:Short description Template:Use dmy dates Template:Family name hatnote Template:Infobox football biography Jonathan Matías Urretaviscaya da Luz (born 19 March 1990) is a Uruguayan professional footballer who plays as a right winger for Juventud de Las Piedras.

He spent most of his career in his homeland – with five stints at Peñarol – and in Mexico, where he won the CONCACAF Champions League with Pachuca and Monterrey. In Europe, he had a brief spell at Deportivo de La Coruña in La Liga and played for three teams in Portugal's Primeira Liga, including Benfica.

Urretaviscaya earned six caps for Uruguay, competing at the 2018 World Cup.

Club career

Early career

Born in Montevideo to a father of Basque descent,[1] Urretaviscaya started off his career with hometown's Club Atlético River Plate. His Primera División debut came one month shy of his 18th birthday as he scored in a 2–0 win against Liverpool Montevideo in the Clausura's first game, and he eventually netted nine goals overall for the runners-up.[2]

Benfica

Urretaviscaya signed a contract with Portuguese club S.L. Benfica on 2 July 2008, for a fee of €1.5 million.[3] Rarely used in his debut season,[4] he scored once to conclude a 3–1 away victory over S.C. Braga on the final day, as Quique Sánchez Flores' men came third.[5]

In January 2010, after having made almost no official appearances during the campaign – his only Primeira Liga game was against FC Porto as his team had many players missing due to injuries and suspensions, and he put up a good performance in a 1–0 home win for the eventual champions[6]– Urretaviscaya was loaned to Peñarol for five months, thus returning to his country.[7] In late June, he moved on the same basis to Deportivo de La Coruña for one season.[8]

In the February 2011 transfer window, Urretaviscaya returned to Peñarol on loan.[9] For 2011–12, he transferred temporarily to Vitória S.C. while also renewing his contract until 2015.[10][11] He went on to miss most of the campaign due to injury.[12][13][14]

Subsequently, returned to the Estádio da Luz, Urretaviscaya spent the better part of the following two seasons with the B team.[15][16][17] On 1 September 2014 he terminated his contract with Benfica and penned a one-year deal with F.C. Paços de Ferreira.[18] He re-joined Peñarol for a third spell on 23 January 2015, after signing for six months.[19]

Pachuca

Urretaviscaya was on the move again in June 2015, joining C.F. Pachuca in the Mexican Liga MX.[20][21] His side won the Clausura in his first season, in which he lined up with compatriot Diego Alonso,[22] and scored five goals including two on 16 May 2016 in a 3–2 quarter-final home defeat of Santos Laguna.[23] After winning the CONCACAF Champions League in 2016–17, he took part at the year's FIFA Club World Cup in Qatar, where he netted in a 4–1 win over Al Jazira Club for third place.[24]

Return to Uruguay

After a spell at C.F. Monterrey, where he was again continental champion and world third-place in 2019, Urretaviscaya agreed to a fourth loan spell at Peñarol at the start of the following year; he was Diego Forlán's first signing. In February, he suffered an anterior cruciate ligament injury in a friendly in the United States, having had the same fate in his other leg in September 2018. His recovery took six months, during which Uruguayan football was halted due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[25]

Released by Monterrey, Urretaviscaya signed for a fifth time at Peñarol in July 2020, his first permanent contract with the club.[25] The following April, with his deal having finished, he joined C.A. Rentistas.[26]

Urretaviscaya remained in his country's top flight subsequently, at Boston River and Racing Club de Montevideo.[27]

International career

Urretaviscaya was part of the Uruguayan squad that competed in the 2012 Summer Olympics, held in London.[28] He earned his first cap for the full side on 28 March 2017: after having come on as a second-half substitute for Carlos Sánchez, he received two yellow cards in 11 minutes and was thus sent off, in a 2–1 away loss to Peru for the 2018 FIFA World Cup qualifiers.[29][30]

On 2 June 2018, Urretaviscaya was selected for the finals in Russia by manager Óscar Tabárez.[31] He made his debut in the competition on 6 July, playing 17 minutes in the 2–0 quarter-final defeat against France after replacing Nahitan Nández.[32]
