Miguel Ángel Britos Cabrera (born 17 July 1985) is a Uruguayan footballer who plays as a centre back for Premier League team Watford.
Britos began his professional career playing with Fénix in 2005. After playing the 2005–06 Uruguayan Primera División season, his team was relegated to the Uruguayan Segunda División.
On 1 July 2006, Britos was transferred to Juventud, where he achieved the promotion to the 2007–08 Uruguayan Top Division season.
On 1 July 2007, Britos signed a new contract with Montevideo Wanderers.
Britos then moved to Italy on 22 July 2008 where he played for Bologna in the Serie A, signing a five-year contract for a €2 million transfer fee. He made his Serie A debut on 21 September 2008 against Fiorentina. On 21 February 2009, he scored his first Serie A goal against Inter.
Britos' talent did not go unnoticed, and he was subsequently purchased from Bologna by Napoli on 12 July 2011 in a €9 million transfer deal, signing a four-year contract. He scored his first goal for Napoli in a 2–0 home win over Chievo on 13 February 2012. Growing into an invaluable asset for Walter Mazzarri's side, Britos featured in the final of the Coppa Italia on 20 May 2012, as Napoli defeated Serie A champions Juventus 2–0.
