Club career

Angulo was born in Guayaquil, and joined Rocafuerte's youth setup in 2009. In July 2013, after already making his first team debut in Segunda Categoría del Guayas, he was loaned to Serie A side Emelec, for two years.[1][2]

On 11 October 2014, after being regularly used with the reserve side, Angulo made his first team debut, coming on as a late substitute for goalscorer Miller Bolaños in a 3–1 away win against Manta.[3] On 5 February 2015, after featuring in seven league matches the previous campaign, he was bought outright by Emelec and agreed to a contract until 2019.[4]

Angulo only became a starter for the club from the 2016 season onwards, and scored his first goal on 8 May of that year by netting the equalizer in a 3–3 home draw against River Ecuador.[5] On 9 October, he scored a brace in a 3–1 home win against Fuerza Amarilla.[6]

Angulo was the second topscorer of the 2018 campaign by netting 29 goals, eight behind Jhon Cifuente.

International career

On 7 November 2018, Angulo was called up by Ecuador manager Hernán Darío Gómez for friendlies against Peru and Panama.[7] He made his full international debut thirteen days later, starting in a 2–1 win against the latter in Panama City.[8]
