Club career

edit

Alsina began his career in his homeland with Huracán Buceo, making twelve appearances in three years from 2007; initially in the Segunda División, before relegation in the 2008–09 campaign.[3] In 2010, Sud América completed the signing of Alsina.[3] After three seasons in the second tier, they won promotion to the Primera División as champions in 2012–13.[1] His first top-flight match arrived on 30 November 2013 during a 1–1 draw versus Defensor Sporting.[1] Thirty appearances later, in January 2016, Alsina moved to Primera B Nacional on loan with Villa Dálmine.[1] His stint lasted the 2016 and 2016–17 seasons, appearing fifty-seven times.[1]

Having gone back to Sud América, he appeared for the club for the rest of the 2017 Primera División season as they suffered relegation to the Segunda División.[1] Top tier Liverpool subsequently signed Alsina, with the defender participating in the first of six fixtures in February versus Cerro.[1] On 8 August 2018, Alsina returned to Argentina by agreeing a move to Guillermo Brown.[1][4][5] He made his debut in a loss to Brown on 26 August.[1] Alsina scored his first goal for them on 31 March 2019 against Deportivo Morón.[1] After eighteen games for Guillermo Brown, Alsina headed off to Indonesia in August 2019 to join Liga 1 side Borneo.[6][7]

During his time in Asia, Alsina scored one goal (versus Persija) in seventeen league matches for Borneo.[1] In early 2020, Alsina returned to Argentina with Alvarado.[1]

Alsina represented Uruguay at U20 level, including in a friendly against Mexico on 15 May 2008.[8][9]
