Thiago Nicolás Borbas Silva (born 7 April 2002) is a Uruguayan professional footballer who plays as a forward for Brazilian club Atlético Mineiro, on loan from Red Bull Bragantino.
Borbas started his youth career with Club Zorzal, after which he joined River Plate Montevideo. He made his professional debut for River Plate on 5 September 2020 in a 2–0 league win against Montevideo Wanderers. He scored his first goal on 10 October 2020 in a 2–1 win against Progreso.
On 30 November 2022, Brazilian club Red Bull Bragantino announced the signing of Borbas on a five-year deal until December 2027. On 2 January 2026, he was loaned to La Liga side Real Oviedo until June.
On 30 July 2026, Borbas joined Atlético Mineiro on loan until the end of the season. A month later, on 29 August, he scored his first goal for the club in a 2–1 win over Vitória.
Borbas was named to multiple Uruguay under-20 training camps in 2020. On 21 October 2022, he was named in Uruguay's 55-man preliminary squad for the 2022 FIFA World Cup. However, he was not included in the final squad, which was announced three weeks later.
In June 2023, Borbas received his first call-up to the senior team for friendly matches against Nicaragua and Cuba. He made his debut on 14 June by coming on as a 59th minute substitute for Matías Arezo in a 4–1 win against Nicaragua.
