List of Uruguay international footballers

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This article is about Uruguay national football team players with at least 20 international caps. For a list of all notable Uruguay national team players, see Category:Uruguay men's international footballers. For the current national team squad, see Current squad.

The Uruguay national football team represents the country of Uruguay in international association football. It is fielded by Uruguayan Football Association (Spanish: Asociación Uruguaya de Fútbol), the governing body of football in Uruguay, and competes as a member of the CONMEBOL. As hundreds of players have played for the team since it started officially registering its players, only players with 20 or more official caps are included in this list.

On 20 June 2013, Diego Forlán became the first player to play 100 official matches for Uruguay.[1] Since then, seven other players – Maxi Pereira, Diego Godín, Cristian Rodríguez, Edinson Cavani, Luis Suárez, Fernando Muslera and Martín Cáceres – have achieved this milestone.[2]
