Viñas began his career with Juventud in his native Uruguay.
On 29 August 2019, Viñas joined Mexican side Club América on a one-year loan agreement with the option for a permanent deal.[3] He made his Liga MX debut on 14 September against Universidad Nacional. He entered the match as a 77th minute substitute and scored 28 seconds later to break the scoreless deadlock.[4] Viñas appeared in eleven matches during the Apertura tournament, managing to score five goals, three of which were scored in the championship stage; he scored one goal against Tigres UANL in the second leg of the quarterfinals, against Monarcas Morelia in the second leg of the semifinals, and once more in the second leg of the championship match against Monterrey at the Estadio Azteca.[5]
On 30 May 2020, it was announced that America had exercised their $1.9 million option to sign Viñas on a five-year contract, with the loan move becoming permanent on 1 July.[6]
Viñas was included in Uruguay's U23 squad for the 2020 CONMEBOL Pre-Olympic Tournament. On 25 January 2020, Viñas scored his first goal with his national team in a 3–2 defeat against Bolivia U23.[7]
