Leonel Nazareno is an Ecuadorian football player who plays as a goalkeeper for his club Libertad. [2] [3]
Leonel at age 16 almost ruminated on a career in boxing and basketball, but chose to play football instead. [4] As second-tallest player in his team, he said his tall stature was an advantage, especially in sports. [5]
Due to starting goalkeeper Daniel Viteri not being able to play, Leonel Nazareno made his senior team debut in a game where the opposition was S.D. Aucas. [6]
