Diego Orlando Suárez Saucedo (born 7 October 1992, in Santa Ana del Yacuma, Beni) is a Bolivian professional football player who currently plays for Club San José.
Career Although Suárez did not play for Blooming in the Liga de Fútbol Profesional Boliviano, he made his debut for the club in the Copa Libertadores on 1 February 2007, coming off the bench against Brazilian side Santos, becoming, at the age of 14 years and 4 months, the youngest-ever player in the history of the Copa Libertadores, a record that he still holds.
In late March 2007, the Bolivian media claimed that Diego was about to be given a trial by the famous English football club, Chelsea. These rumors were soon quashed as Chelsea never contacted him to give him a trial. The young Bolivian did make his way to Europe and in late November was signed by Ukrainian club Dynamo Kyiv.
Suárez signed with Club San José for the 2019 season.
International career During January 2009, Suárez played in the South American Youth Championship for the Bolivian U-20 team, later in the year, he joined the Bolivian U-17 squad in Chile for the FIFA U-17 World Cup qualifiers.
