In May 2015, Moros moved abroad for the first time in his career after accepting a scholarship program at the Temple University in Philadelphia.[3] He played for the soccer team named Temple Owls, being named captain in his second season.[4]

On 30 March 2017, Moros switched teams and countries again, after agreeing to a two-year deal with Swedish club GIF Sundsvall.[5] He made his professional debut on 22 July, coming on as a substitute for fellow debutant David Batanero in a 2–2 away draw against Halmstads BK for the Allsvenskan championship.
