Carlos Alveiro Rentería Cuesta (born 4 March 1986 in Quibdó, Chocó) is a Colombian footballer who plays as striker.
After a great season and scoring 10 goals in the Colombian league, he had many offers from big clubs in Colombia as well as the Swiss club Basel. Renteria chose Atlético Nacional because performing well there would get him future call ups to the National team, and better offers abroad. In 2009 was loaned back to Atlético Huila after an accident killed two Huila players.
His brother, Wason is a professional footballer currently playing for Millonarios.
