Sebastián Sosa Sánchez (born 13 March 1994) is a Uruguayan football striker. He plays for KF Vllaznia[1] on loan from Empoli.

Club career

His nickname is Bambino or El Mosquito, inherited from his father Heberley, former striker of Penarol, Nacional, Cerro Porteño and Qingdao Aokema.[2]

Sosa made his Uruguayan Primera División debut for Cerro Largo on September 3, 2011 in a match against Fénix in the 76th minute for teammate Matías Tellechea. He made his first goal against River Plate on October 9, 2011. On August 29, 2012 he moved to Serie A club Palermo, for 1.6 million , signing a five-year contract.[3]

In January 2013 he moved to Central Español on a year loan.[4] Following that, he was loaned out to Slovak club FK Senica, where he failed to impress. On 1 September 2014, he was permanently sold to Empoli[5] and then loaned out to Eastern Europe again, this time to Albanian Superliga club KF Vllaznia Shkodër.[1]

Sosa has played for Uruguay U-20.
