Club career edit
Viña was signed by Nacional in 2015 when he was 17 years old. He joined the Fourth Division and had the opportunity to practice with the professional team.[4][5] One year later, Viña achieved his first minutes with the club's reserve team, having played eight games in the Third Division.[6] On 31 January 2020, Viña left the club to join Série A side Palmeiras, where he won the treble[7] consisting of the Campeonato Paulista,[8] Copa Libertadores[9] and Copa do Brasil.[10] In August 2021, he signed for A.S. Roma.[11]
On 30 January 2023, Viña joined Premier League club AFC Bournemouth on loan until the end of the season, with an option to buy for €15 million.[12] On 15 April, he scored his first goal for the club following his first ever start, coming in a 3–2 away win at Tottenham Hotspur.[13] He returned to Roma after Bournemouth opted not to make the transfer permanent and joined fellow Italian club Sassuolo on loan.[14]
On 25 January 2024, Viña signed a four-year contract with Brazilian Série A club Flamengo, for a reported fee of €9 million.[15][16]
