The former Colo Colo forward wants to leave criticism behind and take advantage of the new opportunity he was given at the Cement Machine to justify his signing. That is why he strives to achieve his best physical shape and thus begin to silence mouths.
The luck of Iván Morales with Cruz Azul seemed doomed. After barely scoring one goal in 29 games, the former Colo Colo striker was filled with criticism, but also because of his physical shape and the discussion with Jesús Corona, one of the references of the Cementero cast. For this reason, his coach did not consider him for the preseason and the club sought a destination for him.
La Máquina Celeste was looking to free up its quota as a foreigner to look for a striker with a strong eye, dreaming of signing Luis Suarez either Radamel Falcao, although without success. The scenario changed for the Tanquecito, who finally received new support from the leadership to continue this season and that is why he has focused on improving his physical condition.

The striker works hard to lose weight and has seen very positive results. As reported by ESPN journalist León Lecanda, Morales “He has lost almost 8 kilos and therefore has lost a lot of body fat”.
The reporter, who follows Cruz Azul news on a daily basis, emphasized the willingness of the player to change his image. “At the club they tell me that He is trying very hard and Morales has a different attitude since the board of directors told him that he was going to stay 3 weeks ago; He needs to score goals ”, he concluded.
In that context, Iván Morales showed his motivation in a friendly match against Atlante where he registered with a brace. This has earned him that his DT, Raúl Gutiérrez, has given him opportunities in the league games against Monterrey and Necaxa.
The outlook has changed for the former Colo Colo, who now needs to get back on goal to help Cruz Azul get out of the bottom of the standings in Mexico, where they have added just one point in five rounds.
