Alberto Moreno is a Spanish footballer playing today for the English Liverpool. He is now 24 years old, so by soccer standards he is still very young. Alberto Moreno plays in the position of the left defender, but if necessary, can rise higher and take the position of the left midfielder.
Carier start
Alberto Moreno was born July 5, 1992 in Spanish Seville, where he began his career as a football player. From an early age, he studied at the football academy of the club of the same name, went through youth teams and in 2010 signed a professional contract. However, he did not find a place in the main club - Sevilla is one of the strongest teams in Spain, so Moreno had to break through to the base much longer. After concluding a professional contract, Alberto Moreno spent only one match for the Sevilla double, but from the next season he became a regular base player in the double.
In addition, he periodically appeared in the main team - for the season he spent 30 matches in the second team and 17 matches in the first. Alberto began the 2012/13 season in a double - he played 19 matches, after which he was finally transferred to the main team, where he took a permanent place in the starting lineup. During the season, he played 44 matches, scoring three goals, and aroused interest among clubs from England. As a result, in the summer of 2014, Moreno was acquired by Liverpool for 18 million euros.
Going to Liverpool
Alberto Moreno is a footballer who almost immediately managed to gain a place in the starting lineup of the new club. In the first season, he spent 41 matches, scoring two goals. He was seen as a great talent with a great future, and the next season confirmed this. Moreno played fifty matches, scoring one goal in them, however, everything has changed this season. Alberto's performances aroused the discontent of the fans and the coach, which is why he gradually appeared on the bench. As a result, this season he entered the field only nine times, distinguishing himself with only one assist. The player’s contract is valid until 2019, but under such circumstances he may leave Liverpool earlier, perhaps even in the coming summer.
Team appearances
Moreno made his debut in the Spanish national team for quite some time - in the fall of 2013. However, from that moment he played only three matches - the debut qualifying match with Georgia, as well as two friendly matches, the same fall with Equatorial Guinea and in the spring of 2014 with Bolivia. Alberto has not been called to the national team since that match.
