Alejandro Abraham Guerra Morales (born 9 July 1985) is a Venezuelan footballer who plays as an attacking midfielder for brazilian club Palmeiras and the Venezuela national team.
Born in Caracas, Guerra started his senior career at hometown club Caracas FC, making his senior debut in 2003 and appearing in four matches during the campaign. He scored his first professional goal on 21 September 2003, in a 6–0 routing of Monagas.
In 2004 Guerra was loaned to Primera B Nacional club Juventud Antoniana, for one year. After failing to make a single appearance at the club, he returned to Caracas in the following year and subsequently established himself as a starter. He scored his first goal in the Copa Libertadores on 22 February 2007, netting the game's only in a home success over L.D.U. Quito.
On 1 July 2010, Guerra announced his departure from the club after having "economical disputes with the club's board".
On 20 July 2010, Guerra signed a one-year contract with fellow top tier club Deportivo Anzoátegui. He made his debut for the club on 8 August, starting and scoring his team's second in a 2–2 home draw against Deportivo Petare.
Guerra scored his first professional hat-trick on 3 April 2011, in a 4–2 away win against Estudiantes de Mérida. He repeated the feat late in the month, in a 10–0 home thrashing of Atlético Venezuela. He finished his first and only season at the club with 16 goals, also scoring once in 2011 Copa Sudamericana.
