Before emigrating to the United States, the 25-year-old Argentine player surprised his family with a gift. Moreno comes from a humble family that had never been able to buy a home of their own. With the money from his transfer to Atlanta United, he was able to fulfill his dream and the one of his family.

In an Instagram video, the footballer's girlfriend sealed the moment when they handed the keys to her new home. It was a very emotional moment for both parties as they had waited their whole lives to achieve it. Moreno said that the gift was in gratitude to all the years that the family had supported him, and that without that he would not have reached where he is today.

The young forward arrives as one of the promises to reinforce the Atlanta team's attack, which continues to bet on young players with a great future. He is expected to occupy the empty place left by the departure of Gonzalo “el pity” Martinez.
