Club career

[edit]

Born in León, Castile and León, Morante joined Villarreal CF's youth setup in 2013, from hometown side CD Ejido.[1] He made his senior debut with the reserves on 14 September 2019, coming on as a late substitute for Sergio Lozano in a 3–0 Segunda División B away win over UE Llagostera.

On 30 January 2020, Morante moved to Real Madrid, being initially assigned to the Juvenil A squad.[2][3] He was promoted to Castilla ahead of the 2020–21 season,[4] and scored his first senior goal on 11 December 2021, netting the opener in a 1–1 Primera División RFEF away draw against Sevilla Atlético.

On 19 July 2022, Morante signed a two-year deal with Segunda División side UD Ibiza.[5] He made his professional debut on 14 August, starting in a 2–0 home loss against Granada CF.[6]

Morante scored his first professional goal on 25 March 2023, netting the opener in a 2–0 home win over Burgos CF. On 19 July, after Ibiza's relegation, he moved to fellow second division side Racing de Santander on a one-year loan deal.[7]

On 31 July 2024, free agent Morante signed a two-year contract with Burgos CF still in division two.[8]
