Is Amaury Morales erased by Nicolas Larcamon in Cruz Azul?
Amaury Morales lost prominence in Cruz Azul and with Larcamon as coach, he has barely played five minutes unlike Vicente Sanchez and Martin Anselmi
Amaury Morales, Cruz Azul's skilled rookie, seems to have no the confidence of coach Nicolas Larcamon, because otherwise there would be no reason for the Mquina Celeste to barely add five minutes in the first five games that he has played in Liga MX and in the Leagues Cup.
According to official information from Liga MX, this number of minutes is very insignificant if we take into consideration the minutes of the first three games of this mischievous forward who with coaches Martin Anselmi and Vicente Sánchez was raising his hand to gain prominence on the field and did it in a good way that little by little he was gaining recognition from the fans of the Mquina Cementera.
But currently in the 2025 Apertura tournament of the Liga MX his participation is limited to the matchday two game against Atlas, where they tied 3-3 at the Jalisco stadium and where the forward only played the last five minutes after coming on as a substitute for Jorge Sanchez.
From that moment on, he does not appear on the map of options for the South American strategist who has preferred to bet on other young players such as Mateo Levy who belongs to the same cement quarry or Jeremy Márquez from Atlas who have added 22 and 18 minutes respectively on the field in these three games of the Mexican tournament.
A strange decision by Larcamon, especially with a player who showed he was ready to pull things out of the fire in other coaches' matches such as that semifinal of the 2024 Apertura tournament against América in the return match when he scored a great goal that encouraged a brave cement reaction.
Even Morales in the previous tournament, despite his record as a minor, was one of the players with the most minutes of the rookies for the 20/11 rule with 421 minutes on the field, but currently Larcamon has opted for that role with Mateo Levy as the more fixed attacking axis than Morales' work on the wings and with great skill.
To make matters worse at Cruz Azul, Larcamon's decisions are being reviewed with a magnifying glass after the disastrous 7-0 defeat by the Seattle Sounders in the Leagues Cup in a result that set off alarm bells in the cement team regarding whether it was the right decision to dispense with Vicente Sánchez and give the former coach of Puebla, Leon and Necaxa the alternative in Liga MX.
Without injuries and active
According to unofficially verified data, Amaury Morales does not have any injuries and has not been taken into account and his absence is more due to the coach's taste, without taking into account that not long ago he was named the third best U-21 footballer on the continent by the CIES Football Observatory, he has disappeared from the cement coach's radar.
The reality is that Larcamon's decision is due to his taste for football and because he perhaps has more affinity for Mexican players with Argentine ancestry like Mateo Levy, although Cruz Azul has undoubtedly missed the ability of this mischievous forward.
Perhaps one of the explanations that could exist is that with the Mexican national team in the Maurice Revello U-20 tournament in Toulon, France did not have a good performance and was even harshly reprimanded by the coach of the national team Fernando Arce, where even harsh words against the player from Cruz Azul can be heard.
Another issue is that the board did not renew his contract as he supposedly sought and keeps him on a minor registration, which represents a considerable drop in salary in relation to the others in the sky-blue squad, according to versions emanating from within Cruz Azul itself.
