Luis Moran

Luis Moran Sanchez (born 26 July 1987) is a Spanish professional footballer who plays for Marino de Luanco mainly as a right winger.

Club Career

Born in Luanco, Asturias, and a product of local Sporting de Gijon's youth academy, Moran appeared once for its first team in 2006–07, with the club in the Segunda Division. In his first two full professional seasons, he scored four goals in 28 matches apiece.

In 2008–09, with Sporting now in La Liga, Moran netted an historical goal in the last round against Recreativo de Huelva (2–1 home win), which guaranteed top-flight status for a further year. He repeated the same exact numbers the following campaign, being utilised mostly as a right winger by manager Manuel Preciado as opposed to his attacking midfielder role in the reserves.

Moran only made 15 league appearances in 2010–11 – six starts, 608 minutes, no goals – as the side once again remained in the top division. On 31 August 2012, after a short loan spell with AEK Larnaca FC in Cyprus, Sporting announced he was leaving the club.
