Carlos Canobbio
Carlos Alberto Canobbio Bentaberry (born 7 January 1982) is a Uruguayan former football manager and former player who played as a central defender. He is the current manager of Progreso.

Club career
Born in Montevideo, Canobbio started playing professionally with C.A. Progreso, going on to represent in his homeland Deportivo Colonia and C.A. Rentistas. He competed abroad the next four years, with Spain's AD Cerro de Reyes, CD Onda, CD Buñol and CD Olímpic de Xàtiva and Greek club Makedonikos FC, always in the lower leagues.

In 2011, Canobbio returned to his country and Progreso, recently returned to the Primera División. He was still part of the squad – as well as captain – when they managed another promotion six years later, with his brother acting as chairman.

Personal life
Canobbio's older brother, Fabián, was also a footballer. A midfielder, he also played in Spain but with much more success, notably winning La Liga and the UEFA Cup with Valencia CF; they shared teams at Progreso.
