Nicknamed El Pajaro (the bird), Valverde came through Penarol's academy and joined Real Madrid's youth setup in 2016, breaking into the first team after a loan at Deportivo La Coruna. He has grown into one of the world's most complete midfielders for Madrid, a box-to-box engine with a thunderous shot and multiple Champions League medals. He is the driving force and creative hub of Bielsa's Uruguay.
- Multiple-time UEFA Champions League winner with Real Madrid
