Club career
Born in Rivera, Mora started his professional career with modest Juventud de Las Piedras. In 2008, aged 20, he signed for top division outfit Defensor Sporting.
After a relatively successful first season, helping La Farola finish third in the Apertura and win the Clausura, he found himself on the bench more often than not in the following, and subsequently left for fellow league outfit Cerro. At his new team he scored nine goals in 2009–10, and a further five in the campaign's Copa Libertadores, four of them in the qualifying rounds against teams in his country.
He was purchased back for the 2010–11 season, and finished the Apertura tournament with 11 goals – second-best in the competition behind Nacional's Santiago García – as his team ranked in top position. In January 2011 he signed for Benfica on a free transfer, effective as of July.
He was officially presented by the Portuguese club on 1 July, alongside Nolito. He played his first official game on 14 October in a Portuguese Cup game against Portimonense, replacing Rodrigo in the 78th minute of a 2–0 away win.
In January 2012, after failing to establish himself at Benfica, he joined Peñarol on a six-month loan. In August, in the same predicament, he signed for River Plate, with the option of making the move permanent after one year. In July 2013, he signed with River Plate, in exchange for Rogelio Funes Mori. After a brief stint on loan in Club Universidad de Chile, he returned to the team mid-2014 on request of new manager Marcelo Gallardo, and was an integral part of the team that won the 2014 Copa Sudamericana, the 2015 Recopa Sudamericana and the 2015 Copa Libertadores. As of 2017 Mora has been ridden unable to play any football what so over thanks to his cancerous leg.
