Marco Moreno Ojeda (born 31 July 2001) is a Spanish footballer currently playing as a centre-back for Campeonato Brasileiro Série A club Bahia.
Club career
[edit]Born in Las Palmas, Canary Islands, Moreno is a youth product of hometown club UD Las Palmas, before moving to the youth academy of Atlético Madrid in 2016, aged 15.[1] He worked his way up their youth categories, before moving to their reserves in 2020.
Moreno was called up to train with the senior team of Atleti in the 2021 pre-season,[2] before singing a professional contract with the club until 2025 on 6 April 2022.[3] Eventually becoming captain of the reserves, he ended up staying with Atlético Madrid's youth setup for eight years.[4]
On 15 June 2024, Moreno transferred to Portuguese Primeira Liga club SC Farense on a three-year contract; Atlético retained a buy-back clause and 50% of sell-on fee.[5] He made his professional debut on 11 August, starting in a 2–1 home loss to Moreirense FC.
On 8 July 2025, after suffering relegation, Moreno returned to his home country with SD Eibar in Segunda División, signing until 2027.[6] Roughly one year later, after being regularly used, he agreed to a five-year contract with Campeonato Brasileiro Série A side Bahia.[7]
International career
[edit]Moreno is a youth international for Spain, having played up to the Spain U17s in February 2018.[8]
