Club career

Moreno was born in La Roda, Albacete, Castile-La Mancha, and was a La Roda CF youth graduate. On 1 February 2015, while still a youth, he made his first team debut by coming on as a half-time substitute in a 1–3 Segunda División B away loss against Real Betis B.[1]

In July 2015 Moreno moved to Albacete Balompié, returning to youth football. He was promoted to the reserves in Tercera División the following year, but made his first team debut on 21 August 2016 by replacing Carlos Delgado in a 3–0 home win against SD Zamudio for the third division championship.[2]

Moreno scored his first senior goal on 1 October 2016, netting the equalizer for the B-side in a 3–3 away draw against CD Azuqueca; late into the month, he extended his contract until 2020.[3] The following march, he suffered a knee injury,[4] and remained sidelined for seven months.[5]

Moreno made his professional debut on 25 February 2018, again replacing Delgado in a 1–0 home win against CD Numancia for the Segunda División championship.[6] The following 25 January, after being an ever-present figure in the B-side, he renewed his contract until 2021.[7]

On 19 July 2019, Moreno was loaned to freshly relegated side Córdoba CF for one year.[8] The following 31 January, after being rarely used, he moved to fellow third division side Cultural y Deportiva Leonesa also in a temporary deal.[9]
