Wálter Alberto Flores Condarco (born 29 October 1978) is a Bolivian football manager and former player who played as a midfielder. He is the current manager of Bolívar's youth categories.

Club career

Born in Oruro, Flores began playing professional football in 2000 for Club San José in his native Oruro. After six years and 140 games played in first division, he transferred to Real Potosí. Fourteen appearances seemed to be enough to convince The Strongest, which signed him for the 2007 season. After two great years with the atigrados, Flores decided to move to the other side of town, and joined rival team Bolívar in 2009.

Between 2004 and 2012, Flores has gained 31 caps for the Bolivia national football team, scoring 1 goal.[https://www.rsssf.org/miscellaneous/bol-recintlp.html Appearances for Bolivia National Team] {{webarchive |url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090609165828/http://rsssf.com/miscellaneous/bol-recintlp.html |date=2009-06-09 }} - RSSSF He represented his country in 15 FIFA World Cup qualification matches.{{FIFA player|214107}}
