Lorenzo Jesús Morón García, popularly known as Loren joined Real Betis in 2015, but spent three seasons with the reserve side until making his bow with the senior team ahead of the 2016/2017 season.

The 25-year-old had starred for the reserve side, scoring 43 goals from 92 league matches across the lower divisions, and he contributed 13 goals from 48 LaLiga matches over the last two seasons to help Real Betis to 6th and 10th placed finishes respectively.

This term, the Marbella native has begun life brightly for Los Verdiblancos, scoring two goals from two matches, to lay his marker as the go-to man for goals at the Benito Villamarin Stadium.

Having opened his account in the home defeat to Rayo Vallecano on matchday one, Loren continued with his fine form with a well-taken goal against Barcelona, capitalizing on a loose ball from Antoine Griezmann before raffling into the top-right corner.

Though both of his goals have ultimately come in lost causes, Loren has shown that he could grab the mantle of goalscoring for Betis this season.
