Fernando Morán Escudero (born 27 April 1976) is a Spanish retired footballer who played as a midfielder.
He amassed La Liga totals of 140 games and six goals over the course of eight seasons, almost exclusively at the service of Racing de Santander. In a 19-year senior career he added 342/42 in Segunda División, in representation of nine teams.
Morán was born in Madrid, played youth football with local and La Liga giants Real Madrid. He kickstarted his professional career with the club's B-team, spending one-and-a-half seasons in Segunda División.
In late January 1997, Morán signed with Racing de Santander in the top flight, making his debut in the competition on the 26th by coming on as a late substitute in a 0–0 away draw against Sevilla FC. He scored his first league goal on 9 September 2000, a last-minute 2–2 equalizer at Real Sociedad, as the Cantabrians went on to suffer relegation; during his beginnings with the club he was also loaned twice, to second level sides CD Numancia and CD Ourense.
Morán left Racing in June 2005, joining fellow league team Cádiz CF. He was sparingly played over the course of two seasons, being relegated in his first.
Until his retirement in June 2013 at the age of 37, Morán subsequently competed solely in division two, appearing for Albacete Balompié,Hércules CF,Gimnàstic de Tarragona and AD Alcorcón. In the 2009–10 campaign he netted a career-best seven goals in 39 games for Catalonia's Nàstic, helping it to the 18th position and narrowly avoid relegation.
