Pavel Nunez

Colonia del Sacramento gave Uruguayan football another forward through the Nacional academy, and Pavel Núñez followed the route familiar to the club's youth system: age-group football first, then a step up once the coaching staff judged him ready. He spent his early years with Nacional's U20 side, working through the youth ranks in Montevideo rather than arriving from outside.

The move to the first team came in February 2025, when Núñez was promoted from the youth categories into Nacional's senior squad. For a forward developed entirely within the club, that promotion marked the real starting point of his career — the moment the work in the academy translated into a place among the first-team players at one of Uruguay's most decorated clubs.

He plays as a forward and wears the number 18 shirt. Beyond the switch to the senior side, public details of his career remain limited: no major honours or standout performances have been recorded so far, reflecting a player still early in his path at senior level.
