Vina joins Antoine Semenyo, Darren Randolph, and Dango Ouattara as Bournemouth’s fourth signings in the January transfer season.
At the end of the current campaign, Bournemouth will have the opportunity to make the switch permanent.
The 25-year-old left-back, who can also play in the center of defense, started his professional career with Nacional of Uruguay.
In 2019, the same year he was selected Primera Division player of the year, he won the Uruguayan championship.
The chief executive of Bournemouth, Neill Blake, said, “We are delighted to secure the services of Matias for at least the second half of the season.”
“Even though he only turned 25 in November, he arrives with a great deal of experience, including last season’s European success with Roma.
“Our fourth recruit of the transfer window, Matias will provide strong competition for places in our youthful squad and we welcome him to AFC Bournemouth.”
Vina will try to aid the Cherries, who are fighting to stay in the Premier League and are currently in 18th place.
Prior to joining Roma in 2021, he spent time with Palmeiras, where he won the inaugural UEFA Europa Conference League trophy for manager Jose Mourinho.
Vina, a 28-time Uruguayan cap, participated in the World Cup’s group stage matches against Portugal and South Korea.
