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.{{cite web|url=http://www.estadiodeportivo.com/betis/2015/02/02/betis-b-3-1-roda-inspiracion-alvaro-gonzalez-guia-victoria/36793.html|title=Betis B 3–1 La Roda: La inspiración de Álvaro González guía a la victoria|trans-title=3–1 La Roda: The inspiration of Álvaro González guides the victory|publisher=Estadio Deportivo|language=es|date=2 February 2015|access-date=26 February 2018}}

In July 2015 Moreno moved to Albacete Balompié, returning to youth football. He was promoted to the reserves in the 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 Zamudio SD in the third division.{{cite web|url=https://www.vavel.com/es/futbol/albacete/685303-los-locales-se-imponen-con-contundencia.html|title=El Albacete se impone con contundencia|trans-title=Albacete impose themselves with contundency|publisher=Vavel|language=es|date=22 August 2016|access-date=26 February 2018}}
