From his debut in 2011–12 to the end of the 2012–13 season, he had played in fifteen league games for Danubio.[1] In the following season, 2013–14, he participated in twelve Primera División matches for Danubio as the club won the title; he also scored two goals in 2013–14, including a goal in the championship playoff final against Montevideo Wanderers.[1] In August 2014, Sosa made his Copa Sudamericana debut in a loss to Deportivo Capiatá.[1]

Fifty-two appearances and four goals followed in all competitions for Sosa in 2014–15 and 2015–16.[1] On 8 July 2016, Sosa left Danubio and joined Argentine Primera División club Aldosivi.[1][4][5] He made his Aldosivi debut on 25 September versus Lanús.[1] Twenty-five appearances followed, prior to Sosa rejoining Danubio in August 2017.[1][6] His 100th career league appearance arrived on 3 December versus Boston River.[1] On 9 July 2019, Danubio announced Sosa was set to depart for Greek football on loan.[7] Xanthi, of Super League Greece, were revealed as his next team on 13 July.[8]
