Morales got his career underway with Quilmes.[1][2][3] His first appearance in senior football arrived in the Copa Argentina against Atlanta, as he played the final twenty-three minutes of a win away from home after replacing Sergio Hipperdinger.[1] He featured again in the cup, versus Ferrocarril Midland, before appearing in the Primera División for the first time in May 2013 during a loss to Vélez Sarsfield.[1] In total, Morales played forty-one times in the top-flight; also scoring once in a fixture with Banfield in 2016.[1][4] Morales spent the 2016–17 season in Primera B Nacional with Almagro, prior to playing in Primera C Metropolitana for Berazategui in 2017–18.[1][5]
Atlanta became Morales' fourth senior team on 30 June 2018.[1][6] He made his debut after coming off the bench in a 4–0 victory over Tristán Suárez on 18 August, with his first start arriving in September versus Acassuso.[1] June 2019 saw Morales, off a promotion with Atlanta, move abroad for the first time, signing with Olimpia of Honduras' Liga Nacional.[7][8][9]
