Alejandro Moreno (born July 8, 1979 in Barquisimeto, Venezuela) is a Venezuelan soccer player, who currently plays striker for the San Jose Earthquakes of Major League Soccer.

Moreno played four years of college soccer at UNC Greensboro. He finished his career their fourth on the team's all-time scoring lists, with 65 goals and 25 assists, and having been named first team NSCAA All-South all four years with the team.

After completing his career at Greensboro, Moreno was drafted 27th overall in the 2002 MLS SuperDraft by the Los Angeles Galaxy. Moreno played sparingly in his rookie season, but developed into an excellent sparkplug coming off the bench in his sophomore season, when he registered 6 goals and 2 assists in just 1117 minutes.

Although Moreno exhibited a good deal of promise in 2003, he was not able to earn a consistent starting role with the Galaxy because of a logjam at the forward position, which included Guatemalan star Carlos Ruiz and American national teamer Jovan Kirovski, as well as recent acquisition Joseph Ngwenya. In 2004 Moreno again registered 6 goals and 2 assists, this time in 1297 minutes. He was traded to San Jose in the off-season in a four-player deal.

Moreno's performances in MLS have seen him receive call-ups for the Venezuela national football team, but he is yet to receive any playing time with the team.
