Carlos Heber Bueno Suárez (born 10 May 1980 in Artigas, Artigas Department) is an Uruguayan footballer who plays for San Lorenzo in Argentina, as a striker.

Club career

Bueno started his career at Club Atlético Peñarol, moving abroad in 2005, representing French side Paris Saint-Germain FC, where he was rarely used during the season.

In July 2006, Bueno was loaned Sporting Clube de Portugal. His biggest moment of the season occurred when he scored four goals (all of his league ones) in 20 minutes in a February 3, 2007 match against C.D. Nacional. Sporting won 5–1, as Bueno played in just the final thirty minutes.

In August 2007, PSG sold Bueno to Argentina's Boca Juniors, where he played until the end of 2007; on January 2008, he returned to Peñarol. For 2009–10, he moved to Spain's Real Sociedad, in the second division, following the departure of countryman Sebastián Abreu, whom left the Basque team for Aris Thessaloniki. On June 5, 2010, he scored a hat-trick at Cádiz CF (3–1 win), as the team eventually returned to La Liga after an absence of three years, as league champions.

In August 2010, at nearly 30, Bueno moved to Universidad de Chile, making his debut against Municipal Iquique, in a 2–0 away win which qualified for the Copa Sudamericana. On 15 August, he scored his first goal for the club, against Everton de Viña del Mar in a 5–1 success (also away), coming off the bench at Estadio Francisco Sánchez Rumoroso in Coquimbo; nine days later, he also found the net against Oriente Petrolero of Bolivia, a in 2–2 home draw (2–3 aggregate loss).

In early December 2010, Bueno agreed to join Querétaro F.C. after playing for Universidad in the qualifying rounds for the following year's Copa Libertadores. However, his agent denied any transfer had occurred by saying that the player would respect his contract until 2012, but he finally signed a three-year deal with the Mexican side.

International career

Bueno's international debut came against Argentina, the 16 July 2003, in a 2–2 draw played in La Plata. Subsequently, he played for the national side in the 2004 Copa América, scoring three in four matches.
