The striker will play his final matches against Peru and Uruguay
Former Shakhtar striker Marcelo Moreno announced his retirement from Bolivia national team.
“I have already given everything for the national team, I have always tried. I know I’m going to go to the World Cup, maybe not as a player, because that cycle is now ending. But as a coach, I will get to the World Cup,” said the forward.
Moreno has been playing for the Bolivian national team since 2007. The captain of the Bolivian national team played 106 matches in which he scored 31 goals.
Moreno was a Shakhtar player from the summer of 2008 to January 2012, playing a total of 45 matches and scoring 10 goals. The miner loaned him to Werder and Wigan. After leaving the Ukrainian club, Moreno played in China, for the Brazilian Cruzeiro and Cerro Porteno, and in the spring of 2023 he moved to the Ecuadorian Independiente del Valle.
Moreno will play his final two matches in qualifying for the 2026 World Cup. Bolivia will host Peru on November 16 and will play away against Uruguay on November 22.
