Bryan Dennis Angulo Tenorio (born 30 November 1995) is an Ecuadorian professional footballer who plays as a forward for Mushuc Runa.
Club career Early 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.
Emelec 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. 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.
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. On 9 October, he scored a brace in a 3–1 home win against Fuerza Amarilla.
Angulo was the second topscorer of the 2018 campaign by netting 29 goals, eight behind Jhon Cifuente.
Cruz Azul On 6 August 2019, Liga MX side Cruz Azul announced an agreement with Emelec for the transfer of Angulo. Three days later, he was officially announced as the new addition of the club.
Loan to Tijuana On 26 December 2019, after just nine matches for Cruz Azul, Angulo moved to fellow league team Tijuana on loan. Despite featuring rarely, his loan was cut short in January 2021.
Return from loan After returning to the Cementeros, Angulo scored his first goal for the club on 28 February 2021, netting the winner in a 1–0 away success over León. On 31 March 2022, he left the club after terminating his contract.
