Moleiro was born in Santa Cruz de Tenerife, Canary Islands. His father Alfredo was born in Cuba in 1959, after Moleiro's grandfather emigrated to the country in the start of the 20th century. Alfredo moved to the Canary Islands in 1996, where he met Moleiro's mother Mary Paz.[2] Due to this ancestry, he is also available to play for the Cuba national team.
Club career
Moleiro joined UD Las Palmas' youth setup in 2018, from CD Sobradillo.[3][4] Initially assigned to the Juvenil C squad, he subsequently represented the Juvenil B and the Juvenil A squads[5] before making his senior debut with the reserves on 15 December 2019, coming on as a second-half substitute in a 1–4 Segunda División B away loss against Coruxo FC.[6]
Moleiro made his first team debut at the age of just 17 on 15 August 2021, replacing Maikel Mesa in a 1–1 home draw against Real Valladolid in the Segunda División championship.[7] He scored his first professional goal on 11 September, netting the equalizer in a 1–1 home draw against UD Ibiza.[8]
On 5 July 2022, after establishing himself as a starter, Moleiro renewed with the Amarillos until 2026.[9] He was again an ever-present figure during the campaign, as the club achieved promotion to La Liga.
After spending the 2023 pre-season sidelined due to an injury,[10][11][12] Moleiro made his debut in the top tier of Spanish football on 22 October, playing the last 16 minutes in a 1–0 home loss to Rayo Vallecano. He scored his first goal in the category on 11 November, netting the opener in a 1–1 away draw against CA Osasuna.[13]
Despite being often compared to fellow Las Palmas youth graduate Pedri,[16][17] Moleiro plays in a more advanced role as an attacking midfielder. Rather small in height, he is praised for his verticality, capacity to associate with teammates and shooting ability.[4][18]
