Morales played for both
Coquimbo Unido and
Deportes La Serena, traditional opponents in the
Coquimbo Region, being considered a legendary player of the first. The matches when he was a player of Coquimbo Unido, where also took part
Arturo Canilla Díaz, are well remembered, according to the former footballer and opponent,
Hernán Godoy. Along with Coquimbo Unido, he got promotion to
Primera División, the first title for the club, after winning the
1962 Segunda División, in the last matchday versus
Universidad Técnica del Estado what he considers "an unforgettable game". He stayed with Coquimbo Unido until 1966. The club was in Primera División for 3 seasons from 1963 to 1965. In 1965 it was relegated to
Segunda División after one of the worst seasons for a Chilean club, according to Morales. In 1967, he switched to Deportes La Serena, staying with the club until the
1970 season in Primera División. Despite he didn't take part of any Chile national team, he frequently was chosen as one of the best centre-backs in the magazine rankings. As an anecdote, in times when football was more aggressive, having hard duels with players such as Hernán Godoy and Pedro Graffigna, he stunned
Carlos Campos from
Universidad de Chile by an accidental headbutt. ==Personal life==
