Miguel Ángel Britos Cabrera (Spanish pronunciation: [miˈɣel ˈβɾitos];[a] born 17 July 1985) is a Uruguayan footballer who plays as a centre back for Premier League team Watford.

Club career

Fénix

Britos began his professional career playing with Fénix in 2005. After playing the 2005–06 Uruguayan Primera División season, his team was relegated to the Uruguayan Segunda División. [citation needed]

Juventud

On 1 July 2006, Britos was transferred to Juventud de Las Piedras, where he achieved the promotion to the 2007–08 Uruguayan Top Division season.

Wanderers

On 1 July 2007, Britos signed a new contract with Montevideo Wanderers.

Bologna

Britos then moved to Italy on 22 July 2008 where he played for Bologna in the Serie A, signing a five-year contract for a €2 million transfer fee.[3][4] He made his Serie A debut on 21 September 2008 against Fiorentina. On 21 February 2009, he scored his first Serie A goal against Inter.

Napoli

Britos' talent did not go unnoticed, and he was subsequently purchased from Bologna by Napoli on 12 July 2011 in a €9 million transfer deal, signing a four-year contract.[5][6][7][8] He scored his first goal for Napoli in a 2–0 home win over Chievo on 13 February 2012.[9] Growing into an invaluable asset for Walter Mazzarri's side, Britos featured in the final of the Coppa Italia on 20 May 2012, as Napoli defeated Serie A champions Juventus 2–0.[10]

On 23 May 2015, he headbutted Álvaro Morata in a 3–1 away defeat to Juventus, and was sent off.[11]

On 22 July 2015, Britos joined newly promoted English side Watford on a three-year deal.[12] He was sent off on his debut against Preston North End in the League Cup on 25 August 2015.[13]

His contract with Watford was extended at the end of the 2017–18 season, running until June 2019, after the club exercised an option.[14]
