Club career

[edit]

Born in Oviedo, Asturias, Morilla was a Sporting de Gijón youth graduate. On 21 September 2017, while still a youth, he signed a professional five-year deal with the club.[1]

Morilla made his senior debut with the reserves on 7 January 2018, coming on as a late substitute in a 5–3 Segunda División B away win against Gernika Club.[2] He made his first-team debut on 18 August, replacing Pablo Pérez in a 1–1 away draw against AD Alcorcón in the Segunda División.[3]

On 14 September 2018, Morilla scored his first goal, netting a free kick for the 2–0 in a 2–1 away win in that season's Copa del Rey against Numancia.[4] On 21 July 2021, after featuring mainly for the B-side, he was loaned to Primera División RFEF side Algeciras CF for the campaign.[5]
