José Manuel Moreno Fernández (born August 3, 1916 in Buenos Aires , Argentina , † August 26, 1978 ), also known by the nickname El Charro , was an Argentine football player who mainly played in the attacking midfield . “Charro” Moreno was one of the few players in the history of professional football to win the football championship in four different countries. He was voted the fifth best player in South America and third best Argentinian (after Diego Armando Maradona and Alfredo di Stéfano ) in the 20th century by the IFFHS .

career

Born in the La Boca district , Moreno, who was an ardent fan of his home club Boca Juniors from childhood , began his career with arch rivals River Plate , with whom he was under contract from at least 1935 to 1944 in his first epoch and during this period won the Argentine football championship four times .

In the summer of 1944 he was signed by the Mexican first division club Real Club España , with whom he won the 15th championship title in the history of the Españistas in his first season in 1944/45 .

After two seasons in the Mexican professional league , he returned to River Plate and in 1947 won the Argentine championship title for the fifth time. In the same year he won the Campeonato Sudamericano with the Argentine national football team for the second time after 1941 .

In 1949 he played for the CD Universidad Católica , with which he won the Chilean football championship in the same year , and in 1950 for the only time for his favorite club Boca Juniors. His only long-term station in the last decade of his active career was Independiente Medellín , with whom he won the Colombian football championship twice in the 1955 and 1957 seasons . With this club he ended his active career in 1961 at the age of 45, although he recently hardly performed any missions.

Then Moreno worked as a trainer. His last station was Deportivo Merlo , who was playing in the fourth-class Primera C of the Argentine league system at the time and coached in 1977 and 1978. After his death, Moreno's nickname "El Charro" was given to the team in his honor, which has since been known as "Charros". The stadium was also named after him and is called Estadio José Manuel Moreno .
