Impact Moreno had had major troubles staying fit in the last two seasons but comes back at a good time if he's to make Spain's team for the World Cup. As it pertains to his club, Moreno is still the top striker and would offer an upgrade if he can play alongside or instead of Arnaut Danjuma.

Takes two shots in win Moreno had two off-target shots and created two chances during Saturday's 3-0 win over Valladolid.

Impact Moreno had a couple of moments and tried to get involved in the build-up of plays here but was far from being the scoring threat every La Liga opponent knows and fears.
