Lucas Agustín Sanabria Magolé (born 26 December 2003) is a Uruguayan professional footballer who plays as a midfielder for Nacional.
Born in Florida, Sanabria began playing football aged eight with Nacional de Florida. Aged 17, he arrived at Nacional of Montevideo. He played two seasons in the fourth team, and one in the third team, under Álvaro Recoba.
Sanabria signed a professional contract in January 2024.[1] He made his debut in the Uruguayan Primera División on 16 February 2024, starting in a 2–1 home win over River Plate Montevideo, and five days later he scored his first goal to open a 2–0 win away to Academia Puerto Cabello of Venezuela in the Copa Libertadores.[2]
In April 2024, Sanabria missed some matches, which manager Álvaro Recoba credited to tendonitis.[3] He scored his first goal on 23 June in a 4–0 win away to Cerro Largo, heading before half time.[4] In July, with his contract lasting until December 2026, he was linked with a move to the Portland Timbers of Major League Soccer.[5]
In October 2024, Sanabria was called up to the Uruguay national team by manager Marcelo Bielsa, ahead of 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifiers against Peru and Ecuador.[6]
Sanabria is the younger brother of footballer Juan Manuel Sanabria.[7] He remained living with his family in Florida while playing for Nacional, commuting 75 minutes.[7]
