Alejandro Saúl Chumacero Bracamonte (born 22 April 1991) is a Bolivian international footballer, who plays for Bolivian club The Strongest as a defensive midfielder.
Born in La Paz, Chumacero has played for The Strongest and Sport Recife.
He signed a five-year contract with Brazilian club Sport Recife in July 2013. In December 2013 he said he wished to leave the club and return to former club The Strongest due to a lack of first-team games.
He made his international debut for Bolivia in 2011, and has appeared in FIFA World Cup qualifying matches for them.
He represented Bolivia at the 2015 Copa América and was critical of the Bolivian press coverage of the team's performance in the tournament, believing them to be unfairly negative.
