Union original Alejandro Moreno reflects on current team's struggles
Dionisio Gonzalez Rondon / ESPN ImagesAlejandro Moreno spent only one season as a player in Philadelphia, and it was the Union’s expansion campaign in 2010. But the Venezuela native still has a fondness for the city and the organization.
That sentiment brought him back here in 2013 to be the color analyst for the Union’s local TV broadcasts. It has brought him back again many times since in his current role as an ESPN pundit.
“There is something to be said about the fact that you were part of the first group that showed up,” Moreno said. “So you want whatever roots you planted, whatever seeds you put in the ground, you want those seeds to grow into something strong and beautiful to look at.”
