Jaime Moreno (born January 19, 1974 in Santa Cruz, Bolivia) is a soccer forward, the first Bolivian to play in the English Premiership. He has spent most of his career with Major League Soccer club DC United.

Moreno made history in 1994 when he signed with Middlesbrough FC. He spent two years with the English club, mostly coming off the bench. In 1996, in the middle of the MLS season, he was signed by the league and allocated to DC, and helped lead them to the MLS Cup. He was arguably the league's best player in 1997, when he lead the league in goals (16), was named to the MLS Best XI and won another MLS Cup for his side (he would add a third Cup and another Best XI in 1999). After the 1997 season, he spent a few games back on loan to Middlesbrough.

1998 was Moreno's best season, as he scored 16 goals and added 11 assists, only losing the MLS MVP Award to teammate and fellow Bolivian Marco Etcheverry. He continued to play well amid constant concerns about his weight, but injuries began to take toll in 2001. He would go on to miss a large chunk of the 2002 season and a conflict with head coach Ray Hudson lead to Moreno being traded to the MetroStars after that season.

Moreno missed most of his one season with the New Jersey-based club, but did score two goals, one against DC. He was shipped back to United before the 2004 season and, undertaking a strict training regimen to avoid injuries, regained much of his old form. He was a finalist for MLS MVP, was named to the league's Best XI for the second time, and led DC to their fourth MLS Cup. In nine years in MLS, Moreno has scored 78 goals and added 66 assists in league play. He's DC's all-time leader with 76 regular season goals and 218 points.

Moreno was a regular on the Bolivian national team for most of the 1990s and played in the 1994 World Cup and the 1997 Copa America, but has been ignored for recent qualifiers despite exceptional form with United.
