Federico Viñas signs with Toluca for Apertura 2026
Uruguayan striker Federico Viñas, 28, has returned to Liga MX after two seasons in Europe, signing a four‑year contract with Club Deportivo Toluca that runs until June 2030. The deal, announced in late July 2026, includes a transfer fee reported between €11.7 million and €13.5 million, with Toluca also forgiving a debt linked to the player.
Viñas arrives with a record of 143 Liga MX appearances, 37 goals and nine assists, and 33 matches with nine goals for Real Oviedo in Spain. He was the top scorer of the 2024 Clausura while playing for León and was selected for Uruguay’s squad for the 2026 FIFA World Cup. Toluca plans to pair him with Portuguese forward Paulinho to boost the team’s attack.
The club announced the signing through an official communiqué and a welcome video featuring former Toluca star Carlos María Morales, who highlighted the tradition of Uruguayan players at the club.
