About the player
Carlos Villanueva's career has run mostly through loan spells and lower-key clubs rather than a settled run in one dressing room. He came through at Guadalajara, staying on the club's books from 2012 to 2021, but his time in the first team amounted to just 13 matches.
The move that gave him regular football came in 2021, when he joined Tepatitlán and stayed for two seasons, making 83 appearances. Atlante followed in January 2024, and over the next season and a half he added a further 54 matches before moving on to Querétaro in the summer of 2025.
Villanueva has never played for Mexico's senior national team, but he has collected silverware along the way. He won the Copa MX with Guadalajara in the 2015 Apertura and followed it with the Supercopa MX in 2016. He added a second Supercopa MX in 2018, this time with Necaxa, coming off the bench in the 1-0 win over Monterrey that settled the tie.
At Querétaro he now wears the number 15 shirt.
