Former América forward Alfredo 'Chango' Moreno dies at 41 | OneFootball

On Wednesday, December 8, the unfortunate news of the death of Alfredo ‘Chango’ Moreno was announced after a short battle with intestinal cancer.

Moreno was only 41 years old. He won two Copa Libertadores titles with Boca Juniors in addition to the 2000 Apertura championship.

Chango also won the 2012 Apertura title with Xolos.

The player was a part of the América squad in 2008 after joining on loan from San Luis and was known as one of the top goalscorers in Mexico to never earn an international cap for either Argentina or El Tri.

He had a storied career in Liga MX and was well-known for his dominance at Necaxa and San Luis and will forever be remembered for an incredible goal from the half-way line against Chivas.

Moreno, to this day, is still the top scorer in Mexico from Argentina, which is not a small achievement by any means.
