Maksims Uvarenko (born 17 January 1987 in Ventspils) is a Latvian football goalkeeper.

Career

Uvarenko signed a contract with Slovan Liberec in January 2006. He made his debut the following year. Being a bright talent in Latvia, he played for many Latvian national youth teams.

It was difficult for him to find a place in the starting line-up, since he joined the team, so he signed a contract with the Czech 2. Liga club Vysočina Jihlava in February 2010, hoping to become the first choice keeper there.

In 2012, Uvarenko joined his former club FK Ventspils in the Latvian Higher League.{{cite web|url=http://sportacentrs.com/futbols/lmt_virsliga/09072012-fk_ventspils_atgriezas_vartsargs_uvarenko |title=FK "Ventspils" atgriežas vārtsargs Uvarenko – Virslīga – Futbols – Sportacentrs.com |publisher=web.archive.org |date=17 January 2014 |url-status=dead |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20120714004225/http://sportacentrs.com/futbols/lmt_virsliga/09072012-fk_ventspils_atgriezas_vartsargs_uvarenko |archivedate=14 July 2012 }}
