Independiente Medellín
Born in Necoclí, Moreno moved to Medellín at early age and joined the youth sides of Independiente Medellín. He made his first team debut on 23 March 2014, coming on as a late substitute for Giovanni Hernández in a 2–0 Categoría Primera A home win over Deportivo Cali.[2]
In the following two seasons, Moreno served loans at fellow top tier sides La Equidad and Envigado, scoring his first senior goal with the latter in a 2–1 loss to Patriotas. He returned to DIM for the 2017 campaign, and started to feature regularly for the club afterwards.[3]
León
On 6 June 2018, Moreno moved abroad and signed for Liga MX side León.[4] He made his debut abroad on 24 July, replacing Héctor Mascorro in a 4–3 Copa MX away loss to Mineros de Zacatecas.[5]
