Diego Orlando Suárez Saucedo (born October 7, 1992 in Santa Ana del Yacuma, Beni) is a Bolivian professional football player for FC Dynamo Kyiv. Suárez is the youngest ever footballer to play in the Copa Libertadores when he came on as sub in a fixture in January 2007 against Santos.
In late March 2007 the Bolivian media claimed that Diego was about to be given a trial by famous English football club, Chelsea. These rumors were quashed that any contact was made by Chelsea giving him a trial.[1] The young Bolivian did make his way to Europe and in late November was signed by Ukrainian club Dynamo Kyiv.[2] [3]
