Paolo Mauricio Lemos Merladett (born 28 December 1995) is a Uruguayan footballer who plays as a central defender for Italian club Sassuolo on loan from UD Las Palmas.
Club career
Defensor
Born in Rivera, Lemos was a Defensor Sporting youth graduate. On 6 January 2014, aged 18, he was promoted to the main squad.
Lemos made his professional debut on 11 May 2014, starting in a 1–2 home loss against Montevideo Wanderers.[1] After appearing in only two matches during his debut campaign, he was more regularly used in his second; however, his appearances were limited due to an apendicitis and call-ups to the under-20 national team.[2]
Rubin Kazan
On 3 July 2015, Lemos was loaned to Russian Premier League side FC Rubin Kazan, for one year.[3] He made his debut for the club on 3 August, playing the full 90 minutes in a 0–1 away defeat to FC Spartak Moscow.
After appearing in eight matches for the club (four in the league), Lemos was bought outright.
Las Palmas
On 28 January 2016, Lemos was loaned to La Liga side UD Las Palmas, with a buyout clause.[4] He made his debut in the competition on 20 February, coming on as a second-half substitute for Jonathan Viera in a 1–2 home loss against FC Barcelona.[5]
On 6 May 2016, after appearing in nine matches for the Amarillos, Lemos signed a permanent five-year deal with the club effective in July.[6] He scored his first goal in the main category of Spanish football the following 30 January, netting his team's second in a 3–1 home win against Valencia CF.
On 10 March 2017, Lemos scored a brace in a 3–4 away win against RCD Espanyol.
On loan to Sassuolo
On 22 January 2018, Las Palmas announced they had reached an agreement with Italian club Sassuolo to sell him immediately. [7]
