He was the grandson of Ciril Amorós Pastor, and spent his youth in Madrid, playing football in the German Institute, Areneros FC and Racing Madrid.[1] In 1921 he moves to Germany, country of birth of his mother, where he played for Hamburg Victoria and then,[1] during a short time in Barcelona, he would join RCD Espanyol.[2]

Amorós joined Valencia during the 1924-25 season, staying in the club for a decade and gaining the promotion to first division.[1] At Mestalla he was remembered as an elegant and efective player, shy outside the pitch. Despite that, he was a player with a strong mood, and served as the team captain.[1][3]

Alongside Pasarín, he was one of the players who led an incident in the Chamartín Stadium during a Copa del Rey match in 1930, when Valencia players left the pitch before the game ended as a protest against a referee's favoritism for Real Madrid, the home team.[3]

On 21 March 1933, he received an homage in Mestalla Stadium, where he received a cup and Valencia CF played a friendly match.[3]
